[Hood007]

What odds GC26 will one day be revealed as the great parody in modern Geelong Board history?




(Just kidding GC26. Sort of. )

He's a genius. Every time he posts something, whether it's on the Bay or the Geelong board, it's like

He's the Ali G of BigFooty, and people still fall for it...

Just look at my visitor messages

Most of the PM I get are abusive too , but they always ask me to come back . Why else would they do that unless they want to learn from me.

I am personally so excited about what Geelong can achieve this year that I am beginning to find it hard to fall too sleep. The club has smashed its membership record which just shows that most Geelong fans think the coaching staff and list management team have done an excellent job putting this talented list together .

2016 has a 2007 feel about it for Geelong and we are all focusing on round 1 at the moment .Something to keep in mind that the 3 great sides over the past 25 years all started off a little bit slow.

After round 9 2001 Brisbane were 4 wins and 5 losses.
After round 5 2007 Geelong were 2 wins and 3 losses.
After round 9 2012 Hawthorn were 5 wins and 4 losses.

Geelong is about to enter a brand new premiership window that will last for a number of years, but we need to be sensible as supporters. If we don't hit the ground running we shouldn't panic because history suggests great sides need some time to get their game going .

Go Cats.

Starting to enjoy your enthusiasm crazy.
At one point, I just thought you were somehow incorporated by the club as some kind of PR person trying to ensure everything's fine and rosy from a social media stand point but the more I read your posts, the more I see you are a very positive supporter. Whether this is different in person is another thing.

I personally wish I could see what you are seeing but I don't. It's really not trolling or deliberate negativity on my part. It's honest assessment of the list and the direction we are taking.

I'm not sure how we are embarking on a brand new premiership era. One of the best key defenders of the last decade is nearing the end of his career, so too is Lonergan who is probably on his last legs.
I still don't see a replacement for Enright. There is Guthrie perhaps? Bews?
Most top teams have solid small defenders in abundance but we do not. Perhaps we could try and lure Kolodjashnij's brother from Gold Coast as that would certainly be a 'Dangerfield-like' recruitment which immediately sure's us up down back. However, I suspect the Suns are about to take flight which makes the prospect of playing finals tantalizing for any young player emerging on the scene.
I also have grave doubts our ruck stocks remain healthy. I would like to see Smith get through the season unscathed and then we can probably breath a huge sigh of relief. At least I will anyway.
Just remember, if Smith does go down (god forbid), we are in a hell of a lot trouble as the domino effect goes right through the team again.

Up forward we still have no young proven key forward other than Hawkins (28 in a few months time). Vardy is injury-prone and nothing to bank on for the long term. His highlights reel is impressive but he's still yet to really make that spot all his own. VFL level he dominates, just like Kersten does.
Clark is at the end of his career. Kersten is unproven so again, there's no dominant partnership on the horizon. It certainly could come from no where but most teams have key forwards who are not only durable and young, but they are also proven for the most part.
When I look at our list and then compare it to Port Adelaide's, Western Bulldogs, GWS, Gold Coast, West Coast's . . . those are the teams you can truly define as embarking on premiership era's as they are relatively young in all key positions and they have some of the best talent in the country.
There are also teams who are currently smack bang in their premierships windows and will be for at least one or two years more, Hawthorn, North Melbourne & Sydney you could bracket in that group.
Richmond is an interesting team as they are good enough to beat anyone but often fail to get it done on a consistent basis. Almost like ourselves these days.

So just post the ones you're talking about.
You know, the ones where you get people asking you to post more...

I know you never will though, because you're full of shit.

Some posters have good football brains , but I am yet too meet someone who is as good as me. I am just very humble about it all.

you do realise you haven't posted this on the bay yeah?

How many times do I have to tell you that I am not going to post something that was sent to me in private ?

I have a whole thread were people are trying be like me on bay 13 , their was even a Hawthorn_crazy26 at 1 stage .
https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/roleplay-thread-insert-own-team-_crazy26-edition.555267/

I actually don't like to boast , I just want to let you guys know that you can trust my predictions about the next 5 years .

 

[geelong_crazy26]

You're actually pretty spot on. What are your 2016 predictions again?

I think Geelong will win 2 maybe 3 of the next 5 premierships .

We will be out our prime in 2017,2018 and 2019.

This year we will make the top 4 and yes I am picking us for the premiership .However I am not as confident going into 2016 as I was in 2007.We just had a better and more durable side back in 07.I would not advise anyway to put a large amount of money on us winning this years premiership like I would of in 2007.Going no further than a prelim is plausible outcome .

If this is you not boasting, I'd love to see you in full flight when you actually are.

You know they're taking the piss on the Bay right..?

Thread is heading into LEGENDARY territory.

Most of those PM asking me to come and make threads contained insults , but obviously they respected my opinion greatly or they wouldn't of asked me share my thoughts .

Look the bottom line is that I predicted Geelong would dominate before the start of 2007 , I can tell you for a fact that most Geelong supporters on bay 13 did not agree. The reason I posted it on bay 13 was because my threads usually contained stuff that couldn't really be posted on any other board.

This is the take home point , just trust me when I say Geelong will be awesome over the next 5 years.

It's not obvious they respected your opinion. It's quite the opposite.
Do you know Bay 13 is one giant piss take right?

Are you a troll? This is magnificent if you are cause I'm in disbelief...

Well I too think that we will be phenomenal over the next 5 years and if we are then I want credit and love because I also predicted this.

But if we're shit then you should get all the blame because you said it first

I don't think Bay 13 is anymore of a pisstake than the main board or the clubs board . You just get a bit more freedom to say what you want on bay 13 .

Depends what you mean by a troll . I have been really surprised with the overall negativity on the Geelong board so I wanted to play a part in trying to change this . This really is my only goal on the Geelong board.

By saying that you have more football intelligence then 90% of people on this board, as well as dismissing anyone's opinion that doesn't coincide with yours?
Come on dude

I actually looked at Crazys visitor messages... and I highly recommend it

But there certainly isn't people begging for his opinions/threads

Like shooting fish in a barrel. Keep up the good work GC

Personally love Crazy's postings. Takes a lot to pick up the generally drab tempo on this board with everyone calling for everyone's head. I actually admire his blind love. Keep fighting the good fight, mate
