Geelong rorting the system

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

Geelong has Essendon, Richmond, St Kilda and Port Adelaide at their cheat code ground this season. It is amazing that if they win the flag this year they could sign Harley Reid and Zak Butters making them look unstoppable.

Bailey Smith Brownlow before Nick or Bont and Jezza a 100-goalkicker. Someone investigate Geelong and abolish Hocking's Stand Rule

The AFL is now the Geelong Farmer's League run by Laura Kane and Andrew Dillon conspiring Geelong and rigging the fixture to ensure them a flag this season.
Not bad, almost sig worthy. Just throw in a 'CFL boys club' somewhere and you've gone full Richmond!
 
Training drill in Round 22 v Essendon
Training drill in Round 23 v Sydney Swans
Training drill in round 24 v Richmond
Week off
Training drill in QF v Gold Coast at home
Week off
Training drill in PF v Brisbane

7 weeks of rest for Geelong. Will walk to a Grand Final. See you in the 2025 AFL Grand Final vs Adelaide
Think Swans may beat them and don't think they play Suns, instead Suns finish 4th and play Adelaide, Geelong vs Brisbane at Brisbane.

To be fair, Geelong is more an interstate side than a Melbourne side now a days.

Home ground :heavycheck:
Players requesting to go home :heavycheck:
Successful system :heavycheck:
Development system strong :heavycheck:


I want to hate on Geelong like anyone but they have decades of doing the right thing by clubs and players. Look at us, we burnt so many clubs, managers and players because Lord Voldermort (Adrian Dodoro) didn't want to appear the loser instead of doing what is best for club &/or player.

1. Denial

2. Anger

YOU ARE HERE<<<<<<<

3 Bargaining

4. Depression

5. Acceptance

Funny how as soon as the Pies get smacked, most likely top 4 gone and everyone is shitting all over them you run to a bunch of Geelong threads to post nonsense. SEN guy did it too, had a whinge about Geelong instead of focusing on why your club is losing games.

We noticed you also trying to create a thread to “put the mozz on” and now you’re here trying to go back to “rorts” that don’t even exist to distract yourself from the inevitable.

Not long big fella, you’ll be in stage 3 soon enough :)

Sttew merely helping explain to the simpletons than Geelong have not been looked after with the fixturing
Yes, I reread your post and realised what you were saying, so deleted my post, Cheers

Go choke another 10 point lead at the top of the ladder
 
In all honesty Geelong are a bit of a scapegoat in all this because Brisbane are rorting the system MUCH MUCH MUCH more and better then Geelong are, but then no one cares?

Its truly bizarre.

Why do people care so much about Geelong rorting the system but care so little about Brisbane rorting the system, a club whose done it much more and more successfully to?

Explain your rorts. Don’t care what you have to say. You’re guilty either way

Ive gone through them many times. AFL literally gave Brisbane 6 mill more last year then North Melbourne and they ended up putting 4.3 mill of that money into the bank account as a fixed deposit. Meanwhile North has to sell 2 home games to make 2.5 mill to even up the books

How they get away with it is crazy

It even goes all the way back to 2010 when Fevola was paid outside of the salary cap when he got sacked (only time this ever happened)... You can write a novel on the shit Brisbane has done that others have not had the opportunity to

Its true. Geelong's rorts are like childsplay compared to Brisbane.

Have you seen our academy?
Our father sons?
Our recruitment where we seemingly don't have a salary cap?

Now we've got Weagles fans, with their Hungry Jacks franchise rorts, doing forensic accounting on us.

The reason Brisbane gets more dollars than North is:
1. We can be trusted with the money - we have a successful track record
2. North are irrelevant, why would you give them cash to burn on Caleb Daniel

You gave Brendon Fevola millions of dollars to not play football which you got as a interest free loan from the AFL to do so and then paid him outside the salary cap....

TBH that isnt even the dumbest way Brisbane has spent money either :D . You did spend millions on the upgrading of the AFLW arena seating capacity from 8500 to 11,000 despite the fact the attendance is at like 3,000 people :D

Didn't Collingwood do this with Beams?

I've hit a nerve with the Hungry Jacks comment haven't I? Why does every Weagles player and coach have 50 Hungry Jacks franchises? How much Hungry Jacks does the average Perthian eat? Hmmm. Follow the Hungry Jacks franchises.

Nope. That was Collingwood issue with it at the time and why they were so reluctant to get rid as opppsed to Brisbane who dumped Fev 5 seconds after AFL gave you the cheque

Football isn’t played at Hungry Jacks franchises. It’s played within the AFL system. A system set up to favor Brisbane heavily because they are scared that if Brisbane play poorly they will have the 25,000 members they had in 2015 compared to the 63,000 it has in 2024….

Thats why I follow Brisbane. Because we have the AFL wrapped around our finger. Dispersing us gold earnt by the Weagles, which we then use to pay Fev. Kiss our ring.

Well you are very honest I give you that

Geelong I feel create the rort more organically then Brisbane who just seem to go all out and not even attempt to be coy about it
 
Geelongs main rort has always just been being good at football
Yeah, you can understand supporters of other clubs getting pi55ed off. The other clubs tank then get priority and high draft picks and still no success. Or they try and copy Geelong's blueprint for an ageing team only to see it not fail at the wrong time. Or they enjoy success for a few years and then disappear into oblivion.
