Geelong rorting the system

[sosos]

When is Carlton handing us the 95 flag? The blues cheating is all out in the open and yet it's still say carlton were premiers in the history books. Until this is rectified what is the point of any other investigation? Like what would it achieve even if it found some cheating because if the blues can still keep their flag then so should every other cheating club.

Why? We weren't found to be cheating that year. Even if we were, what about your likely salary cap cheating from the same era?

If an independent investigation found Carlton guilty, happy to hand it back. But maybe check your own backyard. Stoneham, Brownless, Couch, Bairstow, Hocking, Mansfield Barnes...

And then lift the lid on this era. No point looking at the Blues. But the Cats?

He didn't work at, or for the club. A company connected to Dank was used to get a legal supplement.

"The AFL joint investigation with ASADA fully and forensically investigated the Geelong Football Club, which included seizing all email, phone and computer records.
The AFL is aware that Actovegin was purchased. Actovegin is not a prohibited substance.
The investigation found no evidence of any irregular supplement or injection program, and no evidence of any prohibited substances at the Geelong Football Club."

A legal drug that has the potential to be administered illegally.

Le rort.

Sad to see Geelong’s property market collapsing like this. How will it impact future rorts? Only time will tell.

Yep. A fact Cat supporters have never quite understood. Feeling aggrieved for decades because your club lost a GF to non-cheaters is as lame as it gets. In fact, the only club that have won a flag when the league found that they cheated in the same year was in 1993. So if anyone should be feeling aggrieved, it’s our supporters. That’s some irony for you.

He thinks the prime real estate and farms are in Norlane and the City.

Is it any wonder we keep getting away with it?

I just assumed Geelong is just a collection of farms with a stadium somewhere in the middle and a pier where Cameron Ling lost all his money in an investment scam.

Listen, I’d be agreeable to allowing Geelong to rort all they want if they agree never to make another one of these

Coming from a poster supporting a team based in Brisbane, a city that was not fully connected to sewer until the late 1970's....

I’m sure Geelong will be connected one day, don’t give up hope

Ha! Geelong was fully connected to sewer by 1917. It took Brisbane another 60+ years

It was a trick question. Geelong has always been a sewer

Queensland bogans are Australia's secret shame. People from other countries legitimately assume they're mentally disabled.

Unreal, you learn something new every day.

Until the 1960s, many parts of Brisbane lacked sewer connections. People would dispose of human waste in buckets, which “night soil men” collected. In 1965, 45% of Australian homes were not connected to any sewerage systems.

Welcome to modern living Brisbane, next step is demolitioning the decrepit Gabba and getting a real stadium set up.

I’ve heard that in the design of the new stadium they’re spending considerable time debating the dimensions of the oval. Key word oval. Not a mangled rectangle like Kardinia. It’s tough going, it really is.

There's a brilliant new course that teaches you how to speak 5x more slowly and cut down your vocabulary by 80%. Once I complete it I'll consider making the move.

Their sister cities are all from the US in the deep south down in hillbilly country. That's what Qlder's are to us.

whenever you see someone making fun of Aussie accents online they're always mimicking QLders

I’m genuinely torn here. Qlders are icky for all the reasons mentioned here, but every time state of origin rolls around, I’m completely on board! Queenslander!
