I know they say never write off a champion but I feel that Geelong hit their peak (unfortunately for us) on GF day 2022. With many of their stars being another year older and the retirement of their inspirational leader, coupled with the recruitment of unproven youngsters like Bruhn, Henry and Bowes, I feel that they are not as strong as they were at the end of 2022.

maybe Geelong were just lucky to play a s**t grand final opponent

Todd Goldstein On The Couch - he speaks very well & comes across as a really nice bloke.
Wouldn’t mind Goldy in the commentary box.

Chris Scott and Ross Lyon were interesting on 360 , just tried to tune off Slobbo and his hand waving

Gotta say I agree with this. The coverage of the entire Jackson thing is icky to me. I'm still not convinced he's the kind of player Freo needed, but it's waaaay too early to know, and he is just a kid. Not his fault he was in-demand and had oodles of talent from early on.

Geelong weren't that much different this time last year. They were 1-1 and IIRC they didn't win consecutive games until a few months into the season. Then they won 16 in a row or something, all the way to the flag. I wouldn't be writing them off at all.

I know and I'm still not writing them off. But I just have a feeling the loss of selwood, the heart and soul of the team, will prove to be very significant.
Neroli is hated by other journo's trust me

It was inevitable.
And whilst I agree he's just a kid - when you're the highest paid player at a professional AFL club, you're going to cop a lot of scrutiny in the press (unless you're at the Gold Coast), especially with expectations at a peak and all the talk of "Flagmantle".
If Freo don't win the Derby this weeked, the press will be absolutely savage in WA.
What does that have to do with the price of eggs in Botswana?
Ever since we ate the same toastie at the same table. His trajectory has been down.

Always picked you as more of a ukulele kinda guy….
Or Norway
Be careful of eggs in Botswana. They belong to Nile Crocodiles! Bloody expensive to collect.
Hard to work with?
Yes and back stabbed a few to get where she got , but didn't last long .

Looking for those ON Topic posts.....
hmmn … here a couple
Think Geelongs slow start has been overplayed. They have a delayed start to their run of home games at the Litter Box. Will easily make top 4.
The Bullies are in strife. Bevo could resign before years end.
