This wouldn’t surprise me.
I also saw Geelong has forced Tom Hawkins to sell his farm, presumably to a Geelong shell company. Must be getting ready to lure a big fish. Ruthless.

Take out Smith's neutral-angering antics (his only real claim to fame) and Geelong don't really have a big name player under 33 years old. Where did it all go wrong? Did the cash run out after Jezza arrived?

Bad list management is bad list management. Rorting spuds is rorting spuds.

Nobody talking about how Scotty will have access to top secret info on opposition players now that he’s been announced as coach of Victoria?

Clubs wont share what they dont want to share.
Also, it would be very easy for the clubs to force the rule to be, all clubs get access to the info the SOO coach gets.
The AFL really want this to succeed. They need everyone onboard.

Uncut gems: How Cats built empire from rookies, rejects and draft leftovers
As Geelong prepares for a remarkable 14th preliminary final in 19 years, the club's sensational record of developing players from a variety of backgrounds – polishing uncut gems and turning them into multi-million dollar talents – has been put on full display once again.
Geelong's qualifying final side from a fortnight ago, the one that comfortably dispatched the reigning premier Brisbane, featured 14 players plucked from football obscurity. Among them were six rookies, three players recruited after the 40th pick in the draft, two delisted free agents, two Irishmen and another collected off the scrapheap at the Trade Period.
It's an unconventional list build, but one that has become the envy of the competition over the best part of two decades. It's also the product of one of the League's most highly respected, sought-after and universally admired development bosses in Lappin.

Don’t worry. I’m sure Scotty will tell all the other coaches everything he learns.
It's worth it just to see that RCAB , who sent me a very emotional DM stating they'd blocked me weeks ago, is still following my posts and liking those of people who quote me. At number #11, they are ever so close to joining the list.
The list took about 20 seconds to create and I still managed to get my daily chores done. I'm not discouraging you from posting. Your ascent into the top 3 has been admirable.

The dude is still talking about me, even though I put him on ignore weeks ago and even sent him a PM saying so.
What a complex.
Geelong supporters are an extremely sensitive mob, they hold grudges for ages.
They're still triggered by Richmond, 8 years after a QF in 2017 when a few children loudly cheered for their team and scared the shit out of them

Still waiting for someone to point out a time we breached the cap.
98% of your posts are about Geelong supporters, so it's clear where the obsession lies.Geelong supporters are an extremely sensitive mob, they hold grudges for ages.
