How about just to piss the Dawks off

Bowes, 5 (Rankine) 25 > 18, F2nd
Henry > 25, 36
Bruen > F1st

Gc just traded 25 and 36 to brisbane (we have 38) so youd have to get 25 off brisbane (which is possible).
 
Tigers won a flag then got Tom Lynch so i don't think other clubs should be grizzling about our success on and off the field.

As for the draft, I love left-footers so I'm keen on Phillipou. Clark would be good albeit similar to others on our list from what i can see.
In any event at 7 we'll surely snag a good player.

We were lucky with injuries this season so we may see new players get more opportunities next year even though we won the flag. Neale is surely ready to go; Bruhn, Henry and Bowes obviously; and Cooper S may yet surprise us.
 
Has he said another post about it? As I don't have twitter

Yeah I don't either, I just google things and then go on Twitter that way, haha.

Would absolutely love to know who it is - as he knew before everyone, and ruled out 16 other clubs (included Hawthorn afterwards so 15) before anyone even knew Bowes was looking to leave. That's what made me take notice. Different if he picks us when there's a trade out there, as everyone does that...but no-one even knew about Bowes, and this was before Pick 7 - so he ruled out 16 other clubs and knew Essendon and Geelong were involved. Only person I can imagine with that kind of knowledge, would be another one of the prominent player managers like Connors (but obvs not Connors in this scenario), IMO
 


By the way, if any club had earned a little bit of karma at the trade table, it is us.

Always paid the piper to get a deal done, always let guys go when they wanted to, and rarely dug in our heels.

Managers and other clubs likely enjoy dealing with us over the average club.

Lol at at the Hawthorn supporters who were convinced Bowes chose them because some mates kids uncles dogs brother knew someone at the club. Just makes you laugh really - and the fake journos who also stepped in saying hes going to Hawthorn lol
 
It sounds like pick two will end up at north via trade involving port and JHF
So you would imagine north will take Cadman with one of the picks
Swap 7 and next years first for 3 and TB
 
The takes on Geelong by salty opposition are already absolutely wild:

- like Sydney after the Buddy trade, Geelong should be banned from trading

- Geelong should have a reverse COLA due to lower cost of living

- $1 pubs, Costa, Cotton On, etc.

You forgot free land deals Torquay and new cars from Ford

I think karma was paid out in full when we traded out Kelly. That trade was absolute robbery.

Good old Joe Blow

Some real anger and soul searching going on at Glenferrie
 
Was only 15-20 years ago we couldn't get anyone to move here, regardless of what we offered.

Amazing what happens when you get your s**t together on and off field and what it does for attracting players.
Geelong as a region is a better proposition than it was back then as well. I'm old so I liked what Torquay/Jan Juc used to be like but all of the development certainly has made them top rate communities to live in.

Having a first class boutique stadium & facilities certainly helps as well - part of that getting shit together off field.

We're in such a good space. If there's a photo of Harley, Ling & Selwood together they should make a statue of it.
