Geelong rorting the system

[CatsDan]

To think we turned Steven Motlop into Gary Ablett Jr & Jeremy Cameron just goes to show how elite our list managers are. For our next magic trick we'll turn Rhys Stanley into Charlie Curnow and Will Ashcroft

Yep, this.

As someone who barracks for a club that has basically been nothing but a media sideshow for three straight years. This has me feeling like this:

Mind you, have you had a journalist (Lauren Wood) use her socials to antagonise your fans as if she were a drunk troll at 3am in the morning?

It's fascinating to watch, and I do have greater sympathy for other supporter bases who have watched their teams become click-bait/rage-bait over the years.

i think rohan connelly has done something similar to essendon but it's not something i'd really pay any mind

 

[PhatBoy]

Nah I’m not one of those. Just keep it to the facts.

None of those points you mention resonate with me.

So…. You want to keep it to facts but you start with a rumour. Interesting take

You did such a great job crying about the rest though . It's a shame you didn't tick off the full list.

If I had a dollar for every Arty post I’d have hundreds of thousands! You replaced raising the bat for your cricket team with raising your post count!

Why are you still sooking about Geelong and Geelong member post counts? Enjoy the premiership. Be a little bit less miserable.

Arty seems to like me and makes a lot of posts about me, I’m just keeping him engaged.

Don’t you have a team board to be troll liking?

You know I always have your back.

I just want you to be your old cheerful self. You complain and whinge a lot more than you used to. Let's try and get the old smiley Elixuh back. Crying doesn't suit you.

Jim Worpel gets band 4 compo. Means he has chosen to play at Geelong despite only a relatively small salary. Very generous of him to volunteer to play for such a low salary.

 

[FootyLad0]

People simultaneously bagging Worpel for being a turnover King and then being confused why he’s only Band 4 compo is hilarious.

It’s the same people who bag Geelong for having players of no value and they are old or slow but then Also say they are cheating the salary cap to retain those same players who are slow, old or crap.

It's James to you. And you know salaries at Geelong are only one part of the TEP

Geelong busted breaching third party payments...

 

[Superstar swan]

Nice big 77k slap on the wrist to make it look like the afl are doing something about it

 

[Bunk Moreland]

“Admin errors”

lol

 

[Sttew]

Geelong busted breaching third party payments...

Yes, BUT Geelong were found not to have breached the AFL’s total player payments limit or any player movement rules, simply that arrangements hadn’t been disclosed in a timely manner or, in some cases, at all. In other words, a storm in a tea cup.

Not breaching TPP because theyre paying them outside the bloody cap.

Not disclosing at all... im sure that its just another honest mistake...

Brisbane were only fined 10k for an error that impacted their Total Player Payments. 77k would seem to suggest they think this is more serious than that.

A 6-year audit and all that was discovered was a car lent, a photo in Geelong colours and filing paperwork late.

Oh the humanity.

Yeah as someone who runs a business I would find it very hard to believe I could "forget" that I'd given a car to someone.
