    Where Is Clive Palmer?

    With all the noise his UAP ads generate, I had this thought. Clive is an attention seeker. He couldn't shutup during last election when his money was buying airtime. Now, nothing. Before you say "covid", remember he had that back in Feb. And I know his lawyer said on Mar 9 thats why his no-show...

    What Main Message Will Morrison Use Going Into The Next Election

    I'm thinking pandemic management is off the table. China sounds like a good'n. A race to see who can threaten nuclear armed China the most with our popgun military. I'm not thinking the economy. Any ideas?

    Politics Is Australia Already An Oligarchy

    Looking back on it, I am now bemused at Scott Morrison's verdict that his last election win was a "miracle". Rupert flies in and organizes the troops just prior to the election. Palmer spends more money than both major parties combined, and later boasts he helped get the LNP in. I think about...

    If We Got Cameron, How Come.....

    ...how come we have been developing Krueger in the backline for the past 12(?) months? Been busy this last year and haven't been up on the latest too much at all. I'm still trying to process this. Did Krueger fail up forward in the 2nds? What happened with him? Also noticed more that a few...

    Surefire way to get more out of our coaching

    Society/Culture A Man's Right In A Marriage Breakdown

    They had a baby five minutes after they first met. She (Rachel) works fast. He's (Brad) a tradie now working long hours so he can buy her the Australian dream. They move in with the folks to save money. They eventually get married so she can have her wedding - another tick off the list...

    Ways The Team Can Improve For Season 2020

    I would like to know what constructive efforts this team could use to be better in the finals next season. Could care less where we finish so long as we make the finals with a bullet. I don't want us to be relevant, I want us to be envied by the time the season's over. I bags kicking skills. On...

    Dear Nick....

    Please retire. You are young and have your whole life in front of you, so find your passion and follow that. This is painful to watch. Stop wasting it. Your parents have been punished enough. We get it: they should never have forced you to play a game you did not love, for money. Point made...

    Another year of bedding in the new players

    Every year I'm seeing new influential players coming in. Fully established players that have a history of playing in established teams, a certain way. Window closed again. Great if you collect footy cards, but.

    We Don't Need New Players

    Yeah, we will have turn over. Lets keep it mainly to draft picks this year. Heard Nathan Buckley say that they made it to the prelim with basically the same side as the last couple of years. He said as coach it has been a revelation to see them slowly meld together this past couple of seasons...

    That Loss To Carlton

    I can remember hearing Carlton being something like 1-16. I forgot we were the team. It is really biting us now.

    Analysis Stanley Vs Smith - For Rucks Sake...

    It ain't working. Sometimes competition like that can bring out the best in players. Stanley hasn't changed. Smith looks like his confidence has all but disappeared. I think it's time for the MC to make a decision, and failing injury, stick with that. At least the mids will get used to the...

    Best Geelong win you have experienced as a fan

    Fuhgeddaboudit, the 2007 granny. Stupifying. I said to my family at 3 quarter time if we don't win by 120, it will feel like a loss. We really stunk the place up in the last. I kid...I kid. That was my best.

    Tackle Pressure Or Goal Pressure

    I laugh in the general direction of Motlop's six tackles against Richmond. What a pathetic stat that was for him. And that is not an attack on Motlop. Thats an attack on whoever it is who is telling him how to play. By not playing his natural game, Motlop looks pathetic. He doesn't know whether...

    The burning GCS question finally answered!!

    A Gold Coast team-mate once asked Gazza: "Why don't you block for us, for once?" Well, here's the answer! Gazza: Because when you get the ball, you are s**t!! He never had the heart to tell them. :(

    Strategy Our Kicking Inside 50

    Something has got to be done. Kicking it blindly into the 50......straight down the throat of an opposition backman is by far the highest percent outcome. And I mean straight to the opposition. s**t, they don't have to move most of the time. We don't have the forward pressure players in the team...

    Letting our veterans go in the age of Free Agency.

    I don't know if Bartel had another season left in him. But I sure as hell thought Kelly and Johnson did last year. But the policy is so strong here, I think those two players were caught up in it. Tuohy, Menegola, Henderson, Rivers. What does that make you think. Ready made players in their mid...

    Rating Geelong's Player Development 2011 onwards

    Some pluses and minuses. Get the feeling this emphasis on role playing has had a negative impact on a few players coming up. Chris Scott's comments when Smedts came into the seniors ringing in my head. He said that Smedts form had warranted senior selection, but the only position available was...

    How many New Players Do We Need?

    To win the 2017 premiership. Scott has said it takes time to bed down players into a team. And I thought we were a bit stiff to play one game in a month during the finals. Still woulda got beat. Just not belted. But yeah, we were inconsistent. And Scott was saying that was the case with so...

    Recruiting older players

    Seems to me like 2017 is boom or bust. A couple of our oldies played very well this season. For other teams. They had to go to let the young'ns through. So, why are we hunting other clubs oldies? Deledio or Wells at 30 would still keep the young'ns out every bit as SJ would have.

    Is our midfield making our forward line look bad?

    Rubbish kicking inside 50 all game tonight. Nearly every time we went down it was like that. I put myself in Hawkins shoes for a moment, and tried to figure what his tactics would be to play to that. You can't lead because there is barely enough time to set that up as they come screaming in and...

    Victorian teams

    Maligned, starved of draft picks while the junior teams in their region supply the best recruits to half of the entire country. Mainly broke most of the time. And kicking the living s**t out of the interstaters! Ha Ha!

    Why Buckley and not Lyon as well

    I can give you a hundred reasons if I repeat them from every AFL media personality defending him. They literally make an excuse a day for Lyon. Apparently now, his latest post match presser was a huge success. Almost a win. Neither of these guys are working out. Buckley is a slow burn for a few...

    Doc Reid needs to answer some questions

    Hird has laid it on the line. Doc Reid needs to man up an answer questions. How much did Reid know, and when did he know about it? Hird has told that the players did tell Reid what they were injected with. He needs to admit he was complicit. Like Hird says. Why isn't he being asked this in...

    Settling players into the team

    Just looked at the 2007 side and what a tight bunch they were. A sprinkling of newer players (espesh Selwood), but basically they had been together a while. There was no new superstar midfielder, new ruckman. As a matter of fact King came back into the lineup. Got me thinking about teams who...

    A Theory About Steve Johnson's MRP record.

    He was offered a big pay deal by the AFL to go to GWS late 2011. Turned it down. I will personally ban anyone putting tinfoil memes in this thread.

    Rumour Paddy Ryder rumour and

    Brendon Goddard opened it up on 360(?) some weeks ago about ASADA not being the only reason Ryder left Essendon. Seemed to hot up on the ground yesterday between the two. Have heard infidelity scuttlebutt, but doesn't sound right. Quite a few ex Dons people get the smear treatment, don't they?
