Geelong rorting the system

[theprospector]

Loving the melts in here.

Oppo fans all wanted something of substance to be found, so will just carry on as if there was.

Keep it coming.

You lost the grand final bro, humiliated. You’ve had a culture of homophobia and sexism come to the surface. You’ve had year long finger injuries. Get off your high horse

 

[Crow till I die]

Only difference really is the AFL had evidence because you actually wrote down how you were planning the Tippett under the table Balfour deal.

I realise that but have they not still found geelong guilty of 3rd party payments outside the salary cap which is essentially the same thing (neither side exceeded the cap remember so Geelong are no better than the crows there)

 

[Carnthefkntigs]

Theres definitely an asterisk on this Geelong era. Even more remarkable was Richmond’s dominance over this team despite Geelong’s blatant cheating

 

[Romeoh1]

No one mentioning that Geelong also got done for cheating salary cap 2012-2020?

Cats whacked with $40K fine for ‘inadvertent administrative error’

So they’ve been cheating the cap since 2012 through 2019 and then 2019 through 2024?



“We made an inadvertent administrative error in our TPP related reporting that has been repeated over eight years,” Cats chief financial officer Simon Kelleher said.

“As soon as we discovered this error, we advised the AFL. The AFL investigated the matter and have passed down the sanction. We accept the penalty and have thoroughly reviewed our processes to ensure full compliance going forward.” - March 5, 2020

Lol

The $100,000 loan contract between Cats legend Joel Selwood and an accused fraudster

Loan documents reveal a man now under police investigation proposed to borrow $100,000 from Selwood, who would be repaid the principal and interest of $10,000 after eight months.

Are we still all supposed to believe this one never happened because there was no counter-signed agreement unearthed, so obviously it was just written up for funsies?

Honestly, I think we need to give the Tigs an extra flag for being able to succeed in the face of overwhelming odds.

Welcome to the threepeat club, lil bro.

How much smoke does there have to be before the fire

 

[Elixuh]

It was just an admin error guys

Do you really want to dive down that rabbit hole

 

[hawkman]

Melbourne were never found guilty of tanking either

Mate Richmond were a punchline for 80% of that time period

 

[Wojcinski]

VFLW player getting an unreported hire car for a weekend for sure helped us win in '22

 

[theprospector]

As far as I’m concerned Richmond are the 22 premiers

 

[QL 21]

Huge asterisk over the whole organisation. Each year people are starting to see Geelong and their creative ways aren't as impressive as they may seem.

 

[SSSSSS]

So Geelong are the Melbourne Storm of the AFL confirmed.

Except the NRL actually hates the Storm.

 

[blackey]

Absolutely shocked. Always the ones you least expect

Funniest thing I have heard tday
.

What was the punchline they bet you in three knock out finals haha

 

[CatToTheFuture]

So has half the league, who gaf?

 

[Wojcinski]

Stop has half the league, who gaf?

except our finals bunnies, the Pies of course

 

[Cyclops]

Every club has secrets. I don't think Geelong has rorted as much as most.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

except our finals bunnies, the Pies of course

We would be such a laughing stock without them

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Every club has secrets. I don't think Geelong has rorted as much as most.

We've certainly been investigated more than most

 

[Cyclops]

We've certainly been investigated more than most

You have a dark past, so people want to catch you now...but let's not go there.

Scott is clean. Just has a punchable face.

 

[Dramoth]

There have now been two clubs caught rorting the system... that have won premierships while rorting the system.

Essendon 1993
Geelong 2022

And what did the AFL do about it. Nothing. So slap an asterix on the 2022 premiership because we all know that Geelong rorted the system and won the premiership doing it.
