Geelong rorting the system

[Richmond Flats]

What properties do players acquire for chips?

Really? Have you ever heard of Villawood? I suggest start your research there. If you hit a dead end, feel free to PM me and I can push you in the right direction.

Little Geelong overpowering the rich Melbourne and interstate clubs with its sponsors and third-party deals should really be celebrated as a win for the little guys. It's a modern day David and Goliath - Geelong overcoming insurmountable odds through sheer courage and resourcefulness.

The tables have been turned, but rather than rising up to meet the challenge our competitors squeal and moan to their AFL overlords. Cowards!

Detention centre?

 

[Richmond Flats]

Detention centre?

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Ohhhh that reminds me.

Cousins was protected in a big way during his drug-fuelled playing days. The cops in Vic weren't allowed to touch him. They knew he was bringing stuff back over the border to WA where his family were selling it. Totally forgot about that.

The AFL reach goes far and wide.

You didn't forget about that, you just made it up.

Does any other club have a sponsorship that's run for 100 years?

As if Geelong is the only one doing this while everyone else sits by being nice little rules followers

If Cats were to ever go down you better believe they'll be dragging all other 17 clubs with them lol

There is absolutely no way one club is doing it while all others are squeaky clean. 3rd Party shit happens all the time, how you can possible police it all?

If some of these opposition posters actually stopped and considered how ludicrous their accusations are that Geelong FC and only Geelong FC might be engaging in dodgy TP player deals. Until I see evidence of anything untoward occurring at Geelong FC and not elsewhere, then those posters can STFU. And that includes Richmond Flats. Instead of saying, "I suggest start your research (with Villawood)" how about providing compelling evidence instead of muckraking.

Which part? I note you've only bolded the family selling bit.

Are you admitting there was no Vicco bias in the AFL protecting Cousins from being picked up?

I literally invited Munich to DM me so that I could share what I have, but he/she didn't take me up on the offer and blew that opportunity. I'm just not convinced Geelong fans are ready to engage in serious conversations about their club. If I come across a Geelong fan who is not being a total flog about everything, I will share what I have via PM.

If i was a West Coke fan, i'd stay quiet forever in regards to anything drug related.

Same if i was a Carlton fan in regard to anything salary cap related.

The absolute definition of throwing stones in glass houses.

This is ridiculous, West Coast and Carlton fans aren't responsible for their clubs' ****ups.

I'm a she, thank you.

Blew my opportunity! How sad

 

[CarnTheScray]

Stage one, denial.

That's OK. I stupidly gave you the benefit of the doubt.

Looks like we've both made a dumb decision today

 

[Richmond Flats]

Big time.

What properties do players acquire for chips? Bazlenka's house cost 4mil via a private sale. If you're talking about pubs that happens everwhere, it seems to be a common purchase between players for some reason.


Are other club major sponsors finding jobs for partners/relatives?

You're also dismissing our draft work over the past few decades which has been exceptional. We have also been blessed with some father sons who have worked out swimmingly. It's not our fault other clubs can't read a draft or develop their draftees like we have.

The pubs thing is because players can turn up at their own pub a d get other players to come to it and that has a free marketing function all of its own they can flex.

Doesn't always work. The Alma made Riccuto, Sloane, and Tex a tidy take home. Lingy reportedly lost millions on his his $1 pub.

Benefit of the doubt? That I'd want to PM with some Richmond nuffie about detention centres?

Stick with denial, sis. It suits you

Yeah I get that side of it but pubs aren't the most lucrative of business models. You might get a few good years out of them.

I remember when Riewoldt had Waterside or whatever it was called. That went downhill fast.

What was Ling's again? I went there a few times, it was such a clinical looking "pub". Did not rate.

Fixed.

I think people spend so much money in them they subconsciously think they make money. As I'm sure you're aware, many do not.

I'm so glad the AFL is only looking at the books and not the stuff off the books

 

[FootyLad0]

Fixed.

Dude, everyone mocks you guys with your wacko conspiracies.

Covid Cooker level stuff. It's mocked openly on Big Footy forums that you guys now have a rep

You aren't beating the allegations when you post this kind of stuff.
Why do you think we post stuff like

#cfl, #GeelongMediaMafia, #shocking

Praise be

I feel like to be thorough we really need to audit the vibe
