    Rumour GFC 2024 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 3

    My twin brother Peter was killed on Sept 11 terrorist attack in NY 2001. I'm very upset at reports about GWS making a skit about the tragic event. Peter and I were born and raised in Geelong. (by the way Geelong won the 2007 GF by 119 points, read the numbers !! ) What mindless privileged idiots...

    News GMHBA Stadium Stage 5 Redevelopment

    Waited in long temporary fenced off lines to enter Selwood Stand at Gate 1. Why didn't the architects design maybe 10 points of entry?? The temp fencing is a testament to a lack of entry. In the Selwood Stand television monitors showed Free WI Fi. So I accessed a connection to a Kardinia wi fi...

    You made good points and it wasn't worthy of a reply. to defend yourself. I know where you were coming from. Interesting perspectives from a Hawks supporter.

    The GA shown on your e-ticket means General Admission. DO NOT PAY FOR SEATING as a member. Just rock up to MCG, scan ticket and enter areas marked General Seating. At the end of row on Level 4 there are GA areas that I go to. Arriving really late in big games you may find yourself high up in the...

    Review Geelong defeats Saints by 8 points

    Wasn't a buy with Dempsey. But he played well and showed confidence. Good mark for his size. These comments already mentioned. Young emerging player, fell over a couple of times. Stay on your feet !!! Also a few more kilos would make him able to stay in a contest. Willing to tackle. Early doors...

    Spend millions on a new stadium and no internet and phone reception. Also I did not notice stats on the screens.. What about other games score updates since there is no phone reception. AND why is there long waiting times to enter the ground at Selwood end. Place multiple entry points surely...

    Again as paid up members there is no obvious information about securing a free seat upgrade on any site I can find. I'm on on the phone in position 33 waiting for advice why I cannot obtain a seat without additional cost. Why can't this issue be resolved and why its so difficult to get a...

    2024 Membership Discussion

    How badly we GFC members are treated. I am a 16 game member having paid my dues to attend all games in Victoria. The link to accessing a members entitled ticket without paying for a $69 upgrade is confusing. I called the club and they steered me thru the "hoops" to secure tiks without additional...

    I soooo hope I am wrong and Neale will become a capable and even very good player. He is young and developing.The St Kilda game last year ..... he was out of his depth. Didn't know where to run to space and present. He was bullied. I can list many similar what i se as mostly one dimensional...

    This guy is a Weitering clone. Bloody excited. Powerful. Has a presence. Athletic for his size and strong. Conner's highlights video is impresssive.

    Rumour GFC 2024 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 1

    Reflecting on NEEDS. If West "Toast " wants Curtin they need to ask North for pick 2 and 3. or other offerings. Nth Melb has to replace McKay so they need a Key Back. Hence Curtin. Then additional best mid. Haw probably are after a goal kicking small . Hence Wiz Watson. Alternatively Hawks may...

    Rumour GFC 2024 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 1

    Looking at the Phantom draft I can't see the Bulldogs taking The Wizard Wazza. They already have a 170cm player in Caleb Daniels. Nick Watson seems a fast and talented small. He may become an elite player but his size is possibly a question. The Cats don't need small forwards with Stengles...

    Rumour GFC 2023 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt II

    Neale is a mark and grab guy. I really hope he develops. His efforts against St Kilda this year shows he is a long way off. Neale gets lots of posts about his potential but 1 goal in 5 AFL games is a poor return. I bundle him in the group like Frampton, Koschitzke, Mc Donald, Thilthorp, Van...

    Preview Round 21: Geelong vs Port Adelaide, - Saturday 5 August 7:25pm @ KP

    Got some feedback from Freo players about Geelong. I know a Freo player personally. The Freo player mentioned after the game that it was "relatively easy" playing on Danger. He won some contests but didn't run on to compete to a secondary contest and seemed to be sitting back on the play. Freo...

    Preview Round 20: Geelong vs Fremantle, “The Clarke/Drum Cup” - Saturday 29 July, 1:45pm @ HOME

    Just my opinion. Neale is still a development player. A mark and grab guy. To elevate him as a next elite power forward I think needs to be tempered. There a plenty of similar marking players that have modest contributions and are not game changers. Hawkins and Cameron are bench marks ( excuse...

    Autopsy Cats lose to Freo by 29 in Perth.

    Simpson is a good reserves player. I don't see him winning contested ball. A robot like mechanical player with no instincts. Doesn't seem to get much scrutiny.

    Preview Rd 2 Geelong v Carlton Thursday March23 2023, MCG @ 720 pm

    Bold and creative decision to select Whyte. Speed. Lethal left foot. A weapon. I see him breaking lines. Has footy IQ. Ahead of Mr Robot, slow and mechanical Simpson.

    I checked the Carlton Geelong game ticketing for next Thursday. I have all Geelong games home and away games membership. Its a Carlton home game. Seems like there are no tickets available unless you pay a $38.00 upgrade. Is this correct??? Paying for membership and expecting access with seating...

    Game Day Match Sim vs Hawthorn - Daz can’t be effed making a new one

    Sav looks good without having to contest. Wait until he panics on a quality power forward. DUMB DUMB free against in the back in the second Q. Falls over unnecessarily.

    Neale. A crash and bash player. Does he actually hold his marks.? Does he have a footy IQ. ? I will watch closely what happens with his second efforts for ground ball? Young and still raw. Many lead and mark players in the AFL. A Mitch Lewis type? Not a star but role player. Hope I am wrong but...

    TDK, still developing. Has been dropped by Carlton. A hybrid ruckman. Average up forward. Is he over rated?? As for Neale. A mark, grab guy. Is he a contested marker?? Is he athletic ? Footy smarts? 2nd efforts at his feet? As for Simpson. Does he tackle? Can he take contested marks? Seems a...

    There was a knock on Holmes kicking early. So last year I watched carefully his disposal by foot. At times elite. He has improved but there was a convention that he was an average kick. Also don't forget still a puppy. 2022 Holmes was a second year player. On a trajectory.

    Neale is a lead and mark type. Hasn't smarts that I notice yet. Ill wait for further development. When out of position can't read the situation to bring the ball to the ground. Is he athletic? As for Simpson. He is robotic and doesn't have a high skill level and slowish. Tom De Koning. Doesn't...

    Review Cats beat Lions by 10 points.

    SDK. I said it before DO NOT FALL OVER !!!! He has played 4 games but surely falling over in defence is unforgivable. Yes Raw. But will be a player. Put games into him. He can use height to punch the ball and will build more confident. But don't fall over !!!
