My brother lives there. Have been there enough to get a feel for the place. I would hate it and personally can't fathom how people travel the amount they do to get to work (or alternatively pay a fortune to live where they do). Weather sucks a fat one as well. Almost as hot as Adelaide, but alot more humid. I got mild heat stroke in October/ November once in about 33 degree heat and hurled in the Sydney Airport toilets a few hours later. It's not a particular potting of GWS, I am more potting the Vic players that want to come home after 18 months. The reality is those players need something to keep them at a club. Either constant success (and even that hasn't worked for GWS), a sh*t load of money, or something they can't get in Melbourne. Sydney doesn't offer that. Places like Brisbane and Adelaide do.

yes its a shame that the only way to relieve oneself from the oppressive summer weather is to take a dip in one of the 39 surf beaches and 100+ harbour beaches.

It may surprise you to know this but people who permanently move to Sydney actually handle the weather better than people who have arrived for a weekend on the cans.

Believe it or not, not everyone is a drunken Bogan. I prefer the Brisbane weather in summer tbh. Sydney is the worst of both worlds. How are the beaches out in Western Sydney?

It's literally 40-50 minutes from the west to get to the beach depending on which one you want to go to. It isn't that difficult.
The gigantic river out that way that's so big it's actually got two different names depending on which end of it you'e standing at also offers relief for those who like to bathe

 

[Catsnlakers]

He's out of contract and would probably want to go to Geelong even without free agency.

Question - if free agency didn't exist, what do you think Geelong would give up in a trade for him?

2 first rounders with a swap of later picks. Pretty much the equivalent of the Beams trade.

Maybe growing up 3 houses off the beach in Adelaide was too kind to me. 50 Minute car trip in 40 degree heat to get some relief is a big no from me.

When you live where I grew up it seems like no time

I’m with you here, I live that far from shitty melb beaches. It’s hardly worth it, still occasionally do it with the wife and kids but it ain’t that much fun, for me anyway.

I think perhaps a better system would be to change compensation. Whatever the neutrally decided points value is, give GWS a pick there. And Geelong lose whatever picks they need to in order to make that up.

The move is still assured, as GWS can't stop it. But it's not a total freebie.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Serial under performer and turning out to be a really bad trade.

IS one of the best forwards of the game but he plays like he doesn't care

Those on the PAFC threads will know how frustrated I get with certain port players (ie motlop). I feel 90% of supporters don't expect the entire 22 to play like Gary Ablett Snr, but there is the expectation that players give 100% for the club and play to their potential.

Jeremy is much better than what we are seeing.


Solution: send him to Port please

 

[GhostofJimJess]

Just out of curiosity, why is it always Richmond and Tom Lynch that cop brunt of a highly performing team picking up a big gun from a minnow, and not Melbourne and Steven May?

When the Tigers got Lynch and Melbourne got May, his co-captain at the Suns, both teams had just been soundly belted in preliminary finals. They were simply doing what everybody in the media (and many here in BigFooty) were pointing the finger and suggesting was required to take that next step.

Possibly a rhetorical question, but why do these many critics have a blind spot for Melbourne?

Because Melbourne are not a "highly performing" team and we paid massive overs (a Top 10 pick) for May's services?

Christ, you cooked that one.

"Melbourne are not a high performing team"

"We paid massive overs (a Top 10 pick) for May's services"

Who cooked it again?

 

[nut]

Worst on ground and he kicked a third of Geelongs goals ….

 

[Rich01]

I love his enthusiasm when he kicks a goal. When he kicked the first of the game last night, he reacted the same way as when he kicked the first in the 2019 GF. Similar result as well.

Haha i have no idea what the context of this is but I love Stevie May and when I grow up I want to * him and bear his children

Haha, great answer. Respect

 

[BigVic]

One of the worst trades ever. Had a quiet game in another big finals loss

He'd be better suited to a previous era. Training and rehab are not his forte. Can't really be like that nowadays.

 

[tigs2010]

Probably should start getting out of bed before 11am like Selwood. Might play with a bit of heart then

 

[michaelk]

29 at the start of next year.
Dodgy hammies.
Frontrunner who plays well against poor teams. Did nothing against the Tigers in either the 2019 GF or 2017 Prelim.
Long and expensive contract when they have no A-grade young players to feed him the ball.
Not a key forward, more a flanker.
Cant stand him.

on the list who would have given them similar output. Had to throw away 3 top 20 picks on Cameron instead

 

[The 747]

[who_let_the_dogs_out]

He's got a front row seat to witness falling off that cliff, finally.

Yep.

He doesn’t mind a cheap shot either.

 

[Superstar swan]

I’ve started referring to him as jezzkins…all he seems to do is kick goals from the goal square these days
