Geelong got gold for Kelly.

Yep, but they gave it all back and then some for Cameron.

Just watched most of the GWS - Swans game.

GWS will not miss Cameron that much I suspect. A couple of their young tall forwards look pretty damn promising.

GWS laughing all the way to the bank IMHO.

Perfect time for GWS to have a freshen up.
Geelong gave them exactly what they needed.
Great stuff by GWS getting so much in return on one player.
Hinnerberg, the kid from Werribee and Greene is a top 8 forward line.

And we have their 1st round pick....
The pensioner's will see the effects of the last 5 year's of desperation of recruiting duds to fill holes.
I will celebrate Geelong in the bottom 4 as if we have won the flag.
2 years its Sydney swans part 2

Nine games at Kitty Litter Park. Should win 8/9.
They'll beat up Adelaide, Sydney and Norf at away games.
Only need to win one or two out of the remaining 7 to get in the 8.

Bottom half of the eight for mine.

Carlton beat them down there last year.
Not convinced that Geelong team without Taylor are a shoe in against everyone they play down there.

Krapdinia park will probably be their get out of gaol free card n allow them to scrape into the eight this year.
The big question for me will be how they perform against the other leading contenders during the season. Tiges, Pordadalayde, Brisvegas, Wet Coke,should be strong contenders again this year. While mobs like Carlscum, Colonwood, Woofers, Smelbourne, St Kiddenme n Gee Whizz would all be thinking themselves in the mix for a final eight spot. Gunna b pick axes n hob nail boots at close range trying to find a finals spot this year.

The coward said Today, he thinks the qtrs are too long.
Maybe Scotty wants 11 minute qtrs. So his pensioners can last 2 qtrs.
Put your money on it.
Geelong will have a GWS/Adelaide season

I can't see them making the top 6. They will be in for a world of pain in around 2023. could be worse than Adelaide.

Yeah. They’ve gone all chips in in this season. If they don’t win it, which they won’t, they could fall off the cliff.

I just loved the photo, and video of the Victorian based captains from a couple of days ago, Chimp was holding the Premiership Cup, with Selwood sitting next to him. Selwood couldn't help himself, he had to have a sneaky little look at the Cup, I swear I saw a tear in his eye :rotfl1

How much sooking will we see if we win the flag again and then get a top 10 draft pick from Geelong's 1st pick we swapped last year. We should all hope the come last!

Someone should write a book "The Geelong Delusion". It's about how how lots of people still believe in this archaic idea that Geelong is the best team in the AFL. They base those beliefs on fallacies that were disproved by logic many years ago. But still, some continue to delude themselves.
