Geelong rorting the system

[FreddyTwoShoes]

British London already have me on their books

Brilliant reference. Approved

For a team that finished 3rd last year. Therefore another Geelong rort.

Again clown. How in the f#ck are the AFL supposed to know for sure who will and won't be a good side? Apart from Tigers, Roos and Eagles there wasn't a side you could say for sure would struggle this year. And ill repeat for you again - Geelong have played better against the current top 8 sides than the bottom 8 ones anyway. Another stupid, pathetic nonsensical sook from you that makes no sense.

 

[PenfoldsFan]

So after years and of speculation and dark mutterings of farms gifted and sponsorship shennanigans, Geelong is set to receive what amounts to sweet bugger all in terms of punishment for what was a minor breach.
Big deal.

This is as much of a fizzer as the Hunter Biden laptop rhubarb.

The more fun question is: which club gets audited next? The Cats will take their fine and say a Hail Mary, but who knows what naughty transgressions other teams have made? Audits! Audits!

I heard they weighed up the rorts versus the success achieved, had a little giggle and fined them for wasting opportunity.

Hawks would have 3peated again given that hand.

Don't abuse people. You finished 3rd last year but have medium draw. That's a rort champ.

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

Show me his work logs then, or are you just talking out of your arse like you do every single day?

You can't name one thing he does at Cotton On, either can anyone else, because he doesn't do anything at all. Everyone knows that.

Meanwhile Port Power would've tripped and pissed all over themselves as has been their tradition since joining the national comp. We'll take four flags I think.

 

[PetterdHoisted]

The AFL is a running joke in its own industry concerning literally everything.

People are desperate to write things off with conspiracy theories that would otherwise make them unhappy.

Geelong not bottoming out Richmond style is one of those things.

None of these are rumours, they're facts.

seriously?

do we have to do this kindergarten stuff everytime?

You're getting your rorts mixed up in all the outrage I think. Scotty's got about five jobs, none are Cotton On though. That's BAZOOKA's and Neale's territory.

Yeah, Port are shit.

But, and I say, BUT..
Were not including the Weapons great mate Danks cups or Bombers 2011 donation sweetie, just Mission Accomplished and beyond for a nett result of 1 flag from endless rorts.

Dont be grumpy, if Scotty wasnt distracted with all his other roles he'd have time to coach them to take advantage.
Do better rorters ffs.

 

[PetterdHoisted]

According to who? You?

there are no issues and nobody has done anything wrong
(but we are auditing Geelong)

it's not just me that has read the subtext

Any mention of Geelong and financials comes with smirks in the footy media I listen to at least.

sardonic humour mostly, I would say

Come on, I doubt the combined might of The Weapon™, Dank's Juice, Father/Sons, Cotton On, Ford, and cheap farmland would fix whatever the hell is wrong with Port Power. Not even our chosen son Kenny has been able to despite his best efforts.

Port were audited too, genius.

If Richmond stayed relevant for 20+ years there would be the exact same crying. A club peaking and then accepting their medicine down the bottom of the ladder is what people can come to terms with.

Agreed.

My concern though, is that, whilst the AFL has been seen to smack you with a wet lettuce leaf only, behind the scenes they wont be inscribing Geelong on any Premiership cups or the whole questionable rorting period will bubble to the surface again and they wont want that.
Not when they have the squeaky clean Pies, Dogs and fashionable Hawks up and about to fill that void.

We could quite easily look back in 10yrs time and see you sold ALL the farms for zilch.

That's a conspiracy theory, not a concern.

Hope you've got your tinfoil hat strapped on tight after successfully being baited by the media for months.

Hook, line and sinker.

Well cheating has been around since the dawn of time, but everyone agrees cheaters shouldn't prosper in sport.
So its only right that the wider football community should expect the AFL to make that a certainty.

Theres plenty of honourable teams in Victoria and the league in general.
We dont need to have this all dragged up again any time soon, its an unnecessary stain.

All well and good, I'm just confirming you had a conspiracy theory, not a concern. Maybe you will actually wish it into existence one day. Until then we can laugh at the "just you wait!" stuff.

How does an AFLW player getting a hire car from a sponsor for a week in 2025 relate to the 2007 AFL premiership again?

You're not seeing the big picture...

Don't carry on with ignorant, horse sh!t then. Again, how exactly are the AFL supposed to know which teams were going to be good and bad this year? Maybe it was supposed to be a bit more difficult. Geelong can't help it if other teams have underachieved. And again Geelong have beaten everyone in the 8 besides Brisbane in what's been the toughest draw of any team not the Dogs so far anyway.

You need to look up what the word 'rort' means too champ.

 

[PetterdHoisted]

Port were audited too, genius.

why get passive aggressive

we will wait and see, just a rumour for now about the sanctions
