There must be some nice areas in the surrounds, because Geelong the city is a shithole.

Wonder why the delay. Not like they haven't had months to get this done.

What is Dow worth in picks?


I'd be on the phone to North. OUT: JHF, IN: Dow.
Also, if they end up with multiple picks and players for JHF, they may well happily part with something of value for Dow just because they have too many picks and not enough list spots.

He'd be keen to get to North too. Family connection

Thoughts on Dow and Setters packaged up to North? Three-way trade with Port?

I don't think we have the money to bring anyone of note in

Acres will be about it

But would love to max out on picks for Dow and Setterfield types

Why aren't we tracking Stocker?

A whole packet of tooth picks, I’d say.
Seriously, I have been holding out hope that he’d come good. Maybe he will do better elsewhere. I guess that stuff from Maher about him being on board and happy with his development etc was tosh…

No it's not - that's spoken like someone who wants to compare everything to a Capital city.... Geelong is a great place to live and work and the Greater Geelong region is has many great things going for it.

I haven't lived in Geelong for 9 years, but every time I go back there are new buildings, restaurants, cafes, bars and attractions. It is becoming more and more cultured and modern by the year.

How long since you have visited the city Woj and what were you there for? That may go some way to explaining your perspective.

I assume you mean why aren't we trading stocker.

I believe the club were actually trying to look after him, in that he's most likely to get picked up as a DFA as opposed to a trade.

When they replaced Las Vegas with a Subway, they lost me.

I estimate these blokes take up nearly half the salary cap.

McGovern
Saad
Williams
Cripps
McKay
Curnow
Walsh
Cerra
Weitering

(With TDK to be added even more)

I hope there is nothing dodgy going on.

Hopefully McGovern and Williams were front loaded.

I think it's a chicken and egg argument

Geelong are the only regional AFL team...GC maybe but they are irrelevant IMO

Are they smart to not recruit that many city kids or is the lure of a smaller town enticing for country kids?

it's definitely a 'buyers market' for the recruiters at Geelong

PS. Henry and Atkins are both St Joeys boys. Blicavs and Guthrie are Calder Cannons (outer west Melbourne)

I just believe their geographical location has afforded them many benefits.



Blicavs and Guthrie are Sunbury boys - hardly neighbourhood Geelong, if anything closer to Essendon**.


Yep I know...but hardly inner city or E/SE suburbs either...maybe a long bow to draw with those two but my opinion on their geographical advantage doesn't change

I live in Brunswick. Probably take me 15 minutes more to get to Geel than Sunbury. Lots of wasteland on the way to Sunbury. It's a quasi-rural suburb of Melbourne for me.

I commute from Sunbury (where I live) to Coburg North (where I work) every day - it takes 33 minutes, if you can get to Geelong from Brunswick in 48 minutes, can I buy your rocket?

:wink:
