No, it's a complete coincidence that six of the Top 8 teams in 2012 made the Top 8 again this year.

Looks at avatar. Shakes head at the stupidity.
Oh dear.
Making excuses for a turncoat?
So who's getting the ass for Henderson?? ... Still reckon Jimmy is on the chopping block, wait & see! :thumbsu:
.... My tip ... He's played his last game for the Cats - will be playing for the premiers next year (GWS).

PS - You boys seem a little irritated??? ... Nerves starting to kick in??? :D:D:D
Geez, you wouldn't want to blow up against my Cola's ... As we all know, you have a dog-shit record against interstate clubs at the MCG in finals!

I like to take snippets from the news every so often.
Did Gold Coast benefit from the compromised draft ?
Did lots of early draft picks help the Dees and Blues ?
Was Hale, Gibson and Lake not available to everyone else ?
Were Mitchell,Bruest and Poppy early picks?
Did Frawley choose the Hawks over the Cats for less money ?

IF Hawthorn profited from those factors, the question must be asked - Why didn't Geelong profit from them likewise?

Your club was in an even stronger position than Hawthorn when GC & GWS were admitted to the league. Shit, Geelong couldn't even profit from Stephen Dank's "expertise" to the tune of B2B flags. The whole thing smells like an excuse to explain away Al Clarkson's undeniable genius.

I'm gonna fill you in on a little 'industry' secret that is well kept from most fans. Players age. Yep, they grow older and with their advanced age they often lose the attributes that make them good footballers.

Hawthorn was at the beginning of their peak in 2012 (despite getting embarrassed at home in the GF vs the interstate Swanettes) and Geelong began a rebuild that very same year, after (at the time) having the oldest every premiership list in 2011.

Are you ******* kidding me with this excuse-riddled bullshit??

Mate even now, this very year, members of the core of your 2007 team are still playing. Guys like Bartel, Selwood, Enright, Mackie & Lonergan.
At the time GC & GWS were plundering drafts you still had Ling, Mooney, Scarlett, Hunt, Milburn, Kelly, Ottens, Chapman, Stevie J, Stokes, Corey & Wojcinski on your list. Don't give me that rebuild bullshit because GC pillaged the draft in 2011 and GWS in 2012, years when your team was still at the top of its game, with almost all your 2007 team still there.



Let me tell you what REALLY happened.

First, the drugs Stephen Dank injected over the 2007 preseason gradually wore off and instead of physically bullying every other team in the comp like men against boys, you had to start outplaying your opponents because you could no longer out muscle them.

Second, you replaced a quality coach in Bomber Thompson with a third-rate excuse whore in Chris Scott.

Third and most importantly, Hawthorn finished its' mini-rebuild in 2012 and began spanking you with predictable regularity. Don't forget if not for us you would've been at least one flag richer, because we both know you would've rolled Freo comfortably in the 2013 GF.

So to summarize - the drugs wore off, you got a shit coach, Hawthorn resumed loving you not-so-tenderly in September, and that's why you've won sweet FA ever since while we went on to immortal fortune & glory.

Nice fantasy, but in reality Geelong started a rebuild in 2012 (5 RS Nom's since then). Hawthorn failed in the PF in 2011 and hit their straps in 2012 (mostly due to under the table payments to 7 different players massively breaching the salary cap). Put any spin you'd like on it, make up Dank lies, do whatever helps you sleep at night. But remember one thing, you know I'm right.
