I think all Geelong supporters should make a stand against the way the game is heading with these ridiculous changes to what players can and cant do. All Geelong supporters should boycott the bulldogs cats game at Etihad as a direct protest against the afl. Given the bulldogs get afl...

I suggest Mackie should come in for Byrnes. Byrnes has lost any self assurance he had gathered over the year and seems to have lost all confidence. Play Mackie on a HFF on Maxwell as a defensive fwd. Mackie has the height and marking ability to create problems for Maxwell so he will have to go...

Re: Geelong finals tickets information Has anyone noticed in the last couple of weeks, the grounds are really cracking down on concession tickets? My parents are concession social club members and sometimes don't go to the Melbourne games so my wife might use their ticket. Usually they don't...

Yeah I was surprised he wasn't picked up in some form last year. He captained Calder and kicked a few goals. He is back playing at Greenvale in Essendon District at the moment and doing very well there too so you never know if he might be picked at a later age. He's got some good size for a...

Re: Two for Pods, One for Hunt Pods-probably as expected even though I disagree with the rule and how it is adjudged. Hunt-thats ridiculous. It was one motion, he could not have know when the ball was released and it's not Hunt's fault how strong he is! Absurd and just more inconsistencies by...

I just laugh at the posters selective use of stats. I note he just happens to choose the Top 6 for his purposes, hence including Carlton but excluding Sydney and Hawthorn making up the 8, simply because he knows if he incl both of them it goes to a 5-4 record instead of 1-4. And I would think...

I think this blog will be full soon. He is the most annoying person around at the moment when it comes to football "experts". He changes his colours when it suits him, one minute he's Geelong the next Port Adelaide. And then claims to know all these rumours that are apparantly "facts" which...

Alright, now I know this might be a bit simplistic but just maybe GAJ hasn't made up his mind yet? I have no idea why he wouldn't have but there is every chance he hasn't, hence the reason they are saying it won't be made until after the finals. I know it's alot easier for him to go then but...

Re: The Monday Wrap (Round 17) Score: 2273 Overall ranking: 5500 Heroes: Hodge, Fisher, Selwood, Swan, Goodes and LECRAS!!! Villains: Enright, Buddy, Ablett, Pods, Pav, Higgins and Waters League Status: WWW 1st/6th/3rd Injury concerns: Just form/general soreness for guys like Pods, Brown...

Thanks goodness someone else agrees. I always try to ignore the umpires and what impact they may or may not have, but honestly that games 2nd half was the most frustrating I have experienced for a number of years. And there was even a coulple of dodgey ones to geelong but ofcourse they were in...

Re: Round 13 Captain Selection Here's one from left of field. How about Big Bad Bazza Hall as VC with them playing the hapless Weagles over there and no Glass to look after him. Only Mackenzie and Wilkes there to do the job. I've got Ablett and Goddard as fall back capt options should it not...

It was interesting this morning hearing SEN's criticism of Rebecca Wilson's apparatant objection to Tiger Woods coming out here because he is cheater. Dr Turf, Radar, Watson really got stuck into her saying she shouldnt throw stones etc... Does anyone know what they are referring to? I know...

Re: Show us your local teams jumper I don't think it is a very popular colour. But there is still a few running around that I can think of. Apollo Bay in Colac & Dist, I think Tatyoon in Mininera, Drysdale used to wear it too in Bellarine. Inverleigh in Geelong & Dist, Talbot in Maryborough...

I agree with most points also on this. For the record, I don't believe any deal is done. I've alwys been confident GAJ would stay but I've become more worried of late. I still think GAJ may not even know at the moment what he will do hence the reason I worry with how much influence the media...

Im hearing ya. I've already jumped on this one and made the trade last week so I got $55k out of it before Goodes went up. As it turned out, Gray still out for a couple and Goodes (although he frustrated the hell out of me by kicking 5 points on the weekend) managed to get 106 and so hopefully...

Scarlett to a wing. Has the smarts to play there even if he doesnt have the pace. Uses the ball beautifully and has the ability to get out on his own. Would be a very damaging player bringing the ball into the fwd 50. With the continued development of Lonegan and Taylor, maybe we don't...

Re: Time's Up Gaz I'm sorry but I just had to have a chuckle at this comment. Bit of an oxy moron or conundrum of some sort isn't it? Bit hard to have a verbal offer written on paper! Still, I hope your right. I think everyone is just speculating and there is no one that knows other than...

Yeah, I believe Pickering and more specifically IMG manage all 3. So that's why they were all at the tennis and then again there last night I would presume. I think they were on a table with some of the neighbours people, well at least one of the chicks was from Neighbours, the one that is or...

Re: Round 10 - Trades Short and sweet...........do I upgrade Wells to a premium mid by having to trade a cash cow to get some $, thus using 2 trades, or hang onto him and save the trades?

Re: Round 7 Trades Can someone explain to me how the par/break even score for a player is determined? It's not just based on the precious 3 rounds so how is it done or where can I find this out?

Re: Crossroads ? Yeah I've got my doubts as well, more so with the fact the season is so long I wonder if they can keep getting themselves up. I also still believe with all teams and sides up and running, we are still the best in it but it's just a question of getting there with the team all...

Ablett, Gary, 29 (Fwd Pkt with some time still on the ball) Allwright, Tom, 23 ? Bartel, Jimmy, 30 (True Ruck Rover type role with a bit of time fwd, maybe some stopping roles too) Blake, Mark, 28 (May be forced out of 1st XXII by new younger rucks) Brown, Mitch, 23 (Will be given time up fwd in...

Nason Lisle or Farmer? and banner, shuey or bascinac and (lol) 3 out of: Pods, Rocky, Gumby, D Stewart, Rohan, Hitchcock...and Roberts Farmer, Shuey (nut not sure he will be picked) and Gumby, Hitchcock and Rockliff (but again not sure if he will play). My query is Gram or Waite...

Excuse how many I have but here goes: Backs - Gram, Kennelley, Hunt, Ladson, Sheppard from WC as a rookie (big wraps). Mids-Kerr, Burgoyne, Cotchin???, Trengove and Martin as rookies. Rucks-Ottens but risky as to how many games he'll play, Hille, Warnock, Trengove as a rookie. Fwds-Franklin...

How is Matty Thompson not on this list. He is hopeless. Maher is a fool. They all have their own agenda's and it's only when someone calls them on it, do they realise how much of a fool they look.

Total score: 9 The Questions How many wins for H&A season? 17 1 Final ladder position (AFL): 2nd 1 Final Ladder Position (VFL): 6th Biggest winning margin (and opponent): 75 pts V Freo Biggest losing margin (and opponent): 24 pts V Bulldogs Best & Fairest...

I think after the weekend everything became a lot clearer. Given St.Kilda seemed to shrug the monkey off their back so to speak, I believe they are the team to beat and will monster whoever they play in the PF. I've said all along geelong is the only side that can beat St.K. And I still...

Why would you even bother posting this? Do you know how absurd it is? So you think geelong are unprofessional enough to declare to a player 2 weeks out from a game that he won't be playing in that game and that he will be put up for trade. This to the guy who has been out for a number of weeks...

There seems to be a theme on this thread where it's a case of Stokes or Hogan plays. But I don't think it's that simple. Stokes plays purely as a small forward whereas Hogan plays more as a midfielder/flanker role. They are 2 totally different roles and I think they've decided that maybe given...

I'm pretty certain all players that have played a senior game were invited. However they had to pay thier own way too so some of them might have thought that was a bit rich! Im tipping they would get their tickets at discounted rate though.
