Geelong rorting the system

Imagine what was actually uncovered. The AFL will sanction them for some low level stuff to ensure the process looks legit and sweep the rest under a moggs creek size carpet.

Why was it so bleeding obvious to the casual observer that Geelong was a "Players Destination" due to fraud but the AFL for all these years saw nothing ? no integrity and Geelong need to be punished like Essendon was for cheating. I say strip them of their flags in the last 20 years and premiership points this year, along with draft penalties.

Ha! You suckers thought you had us!

Swept into the newly excavated acres we've prepared for Reid, Butters, TDK, Cadman, Rowell, and Jackson.

"Can we interest you in an olive grove, Mr. Reid?" offered S. Hocking.

Well, that's us reviewed for the next 20 years — done and dusted. We've got the green light to roll out the red carpet for Reid, Butters, TDK, Cadman, Rowell, and Jackson.

All other supporters are on life support.
I feel a little bad that we had to throw the AFLW player under the bus but we'll sort her out quietly. Just feels really good to be confirmed as the cleanest club in the business, y'know?

A little collateral damage — a sacrificial lamb who’ll be looked after in due course with a Ford dealership.


GFC: The Teflon Club — nothing sticks.
 
For transparency I think it would be best if AFL players were only allowed to be employed by their club/the AFL, no side gigs at all.

It's 15 years of their life at best most of the time and the wages are far higher than the average Aussie.

Surely they can survive without a Cotton On job to boot.
 
Brisbane have awesome list management, have covered McStay who was a solid first 18 player, otherwise lost few and brought in Neale and Dunkley, as well as good luck with f/s. Bristling with skills, that's good player development.

Not too different at Geelong. Coupla huge names in Danger and Jez, otherwise they have a history of improving trades eg Stengle, Tuohy, Stanley. Traded out players generally don't star eg Tim Kelly, Rataguolea which suggests player development and fitness is top notch. The good fitness regime helps keep oldies on the park.

Pies would have the best fitness regime, or is it just Sidey and Pendles making them look good? We find/decelop guys like Ginnivan, Markov and Mihocek that many clubs ov we looked, so talent identification is a strength esp bottom end with potential. We do trades, Houston the biggest but a lot of good players Adams Treloar Schulz, as well as smart steak knives like Crisp and arguably WHE. List management is mostly good if you discount the firesale (Grundy Treloar Philips plus Beams meltdown).

If these three are cheating it's soft cap: fitness, player support and development, and for Collingwood add talent ID. It's easier to find Danger or Dunkley "over there, the AA standing next to the premiership player", harder to spot the potential C or B hiding in the Port Melbourne backline or the Carlton rookie list.

We literally pull players from Geelong local league and equivalent. We don't just trade.

This is a shot across the bow from the AFL requesting that Geelong be more subtle about its rorting in future. It had gotten out of hand.

We've passed the test. The rotation’s done on us.

AFL: "Who’s next for review? Umm… Brisbane."

Greg Swann turns on the shredder

Just like Essendon, Brisbane knows not to keep a paper trail. We aren’t amateurs.

They’ve been doing it for at least 45 years.😂 But in all seriousness how they obtained Bailey Smith was the height of unsportsmanlike conduct from that club.
