I think it's time you all moved on. Chappy is gone. Get over it.

Next time please read what I wrote before posting. No offence meant, it's just I'm trying to say as softly as possible that I believe he's running a strategy at Essendon that we would have run for him. And there you go with a broad generalization that we 'all' (after 1 post) get over it as if to start a flame war.
 
As far as I'm concerned Chappy is an Essendon player this season, so who gives a crap if he plays 16 games. I'm not trying to start anything but god help us if every time Chappy farts some moron here starts a thread about it. "Chappy farts more often at Essendon" Get over it.

See, this is what I was saying. Paul Chapman has shown his true colors (and they are red and black).

Didn't Chapman want a "guarantee" that he play every game last year? Also, he said that he would only get 10 games, then why didn't he say sixteen games, and then negotiate? I think if they had done that, he would have got 12-14 games. But he said he left because he wanted a full season, and didn't want to run around in the VFL, mentoring our kids.

This is the best evidence yet of what I have always suspected- Paul Chapman was itching to get out of Geelong. Knowing how Bomber got to Essendon, it wouldn't have surprised me if Bomber had been talking to Chapman about 2014, and let him know that he was going to be coach in 2014.

I think Chapman wants to be coached by Mark Thompson again. They are mates. I think Chapman made an effort to play football Chris Scott's way, but when Bomber was going to coach again, he jumped at the chance. The 10-game thing is just an excuse to get the Chappites on side, and not see him as a traitor.

Chapman needs to shut his mouth and play football. I was going to not comment on him again, since the season was about to start, and focus only on our own players who are there. But Chapman keeps pissing on the club I love, so I couldn't remain silent.

I can see why Bomber and Chappy are friends. They are cut from the same duplicious cloth.

Don't want me commenting on this, simple. Just hope that Chapman shuts his mouth and doesn't say anything else to embarass Geelong.

He now plays for someone else.. Not us so I care more about how OUR players are going than chapman

Then don't read the Herald-Sun sports pages, because it is an article in today's paper.

Better yet, don't come onto a board called "Chapman aims for 16 games" and then say that you don't want to hear about it.

Or best of all would be if Paul Chapman stopped talking to the media.

Why is the Herald-Sun talking about it then, and why is Chapman telling them?

If Paul Chapman knew the words "No comment", then you wouldn't have to hear about it.
 
The great thing with these threads is, you find who truly loves the Geelong Football Club, through thick and thin, and who are the fly-by-nighters and bandwagon riders.

Didn't Chapman want a "guarantee" that he play every game last year?

Provide one article where he comes close to saying that.

This is the best evidence yet of what I have always suspected- Paul Chapman was itching to get out of Geelong. Knowing how Bomber got to Essendon, it wouldn't have surprised me if Bomber had been talking to Chapman about 2014, and let him know that he was going to be coach in 2014.

And you gleaned all that from that one very innocuous article?

I think Chapman wants to be coached by Mark Thompson again. They are mates. I think Chapman made an effort to play football Chris Scott's way, but when Bomber was going to coach again, he jumped at the chance. The 10-game thing is just an excuse to get the Chappites on side, and not see him as a traitor.

You think to much mate, that's your whole problem.

Might want to follow your own advice, and stop embarrassing yourself.

as far as 2014 goes i don't care what chapman does he plays for essendon, but give some respect FFS he is a 250 game, 3 X premiership, norm smith medallist and carji greeves medallist at this great club, he made the decision to move, he not the first player to do that and he won't be the last, but that should not devalue what he achieved here. undoubtedly will be GFC hall of fame inductee and possibly AFL hall of fame. have your views on what he did but give him the respect he deserves

While he wears the colours of another club he is an enemy. Same for PODs, Josh Hunt, & Gary Ablett.

The difference is though, if he is fit enough to play every game for Essendon, he will.

Being fit for every game with Geelong may still have meant he only played 10 odd games and us giving someone else a go.
 
essendon board.
if i see another thread about gary ablett, mark thompson, chappy, podsy, or anyone else that has left the club for another team i will spew, i will spew all over my keyboard, spew on the floor, spew into the ceiling fan, spew on the dog, clog up the dishwasher, you name it i'll spew it
