Got told tonight that he aint going to Geelong.
There is a twist.


Guy I spoke to reckons Hawthorn. The guy is a physio in a hospital so not sure about his source. Just putting it out there.
No. I just can't see it. It would be effing hilarious on the geelong board if it happened, but nope, it aint gonna happen.

We can't stop our change what danger decides to do, but we have every say in how we work the compensation.

Our handling of the compensation will determine how this situation will be remembered.

I'm hoping we are tough and brave in trying to turn this into a great opportunity.

Will miss danger, and I honestly wish him the best, but hopefully we milk this trade for everything is got and pick up some genuine classy players. No b graders please.

All I can tell is that apparently two first round picks are too much for a superstar of the competition. Apparently this board is having a meltdown too and they should target the Crouch brothers to increase our meltdown. Have we done something to offend them?
Not really, it's just getting down to the business end and there's some itchy trigger fingers.

Gee, there are some absolutely moronic Geelong supporters about this Danger stuff, truly moronic. I'm glad I've stayed out of threads outside of this board on this issue, I think I would have gone insane.
I dunno there have been some people around here that were pretty bloody sure of themselves and have made fair twats of themselves too. At the end of the day its looking increasingly like Mahlepi? etc. were right.

If Caro's source is from the AFC, then I think it would be a strategic release of info. Not a leak. World of difference. Leaks happen outside your control.

But I don't think it's the AFC. We look like amateurs still.
Caros source has always been within the bowels of the afl. Always. It won't be from us.

I've been saying it on here for months, people do just not realise the influence around the Geelong business and commerce centre that Paddy's future father in law Bruce Harwood holds and along with Frank Costa's business interests in the area, Patrick will be very well set up for life after football and make no mistake that will have had a lot to do with the ultimate decision. Of course I was howled down when I suggested this months ago by the "feminists" but I can live with that. Happy wife : Happy Life should read Happy Life : Happy Wife and Family.
But in all seriousness how would 2 extra years at the Crows effect this life after football stuff plus it would cost Geelong alot less currency. I know Geelong are desperate for Patty but they could royally screw their future having to give up 2 first rounders and possibly a player why not just wait that extra 2 years and get him for free.

Rucci's theory on why the announcement will be delayed:

"But the secrecy — that is clearly frustrating Crows fans — is being forced by the AFL wanting Dangerfield to attend the Brownlow Medal count in Melbourne on Monday as an Adelaide Football Club player."
And yet the AFL is all about integrity. What a bunch of ******* hypocrites!

Can someone tell me the difference between Tippett and Danger coz I see no difference? Tippett played to the end (except for the Sydney final) just as Danger has (except for the Geelong game but he was no orphan in that one).

At the moment, I'm pissed off that we have been played by Danger. Not happy at all.

It is a reason I don't have a number of my gurnsey, I love the club whilst some players can go **** themselves.

A few of them will be quietly worried that they will be forced to lose a decent player and a couple years of picks and must resort to pulling out the Free Agent card (disregarding the Restricted bit); or they are so sure that the VFL will not allow some minnow non-Victorian club to bully the second oldest Aussie Rules club at the trade table.

I put down a pale ale on the weekend.

Closely approximates the Golden Ale recipe on their website but hit it with Cascade, Amarillo and Citra hops to give it an American Pale Ale flavour but at 4.7% so I can drink a couple on a hot day without getting sideways.

Going to do their Mosaic Amber Ale recipe again too as soon as Mosaic hops are available again.

I've got the fixings for a European Lager ready to go as soon as the Pale is finished.

Last Summer I did 4 brews in a row and I had a very good start to the year. If I start now I can get 4 brews in before summer holidays and stock up!
Liking the sounds of those! Really want to get into doing my own homebrew, but don't really have the space at present.

I can understand a player leaving us to gain an opportunity at another club such as Mattner , Knights , Maric etc. I wouldn't even blame Grigg , CEY or Kerridge if they left to gain more opportunities this year. But one of biggest leaders on and off the field , who every player looks upto at the club is potentially ditching us. For what? Being closer to his family? Adelaide to Melbourne is around 45 minutes - 1 hour away via plane. After what this club has been through this year , the last thing we need is one of our best players leaving us.

You know that it may well be the AFC telling danger to stay quiet right?

All year it felt like the entire afc team were reading from a script, not just danger. I'm betting there is a reason for this, I'm just not sure what yet.
