It does.Whilst I get your drift, I’d suggest any equivalency with the Storm’s 2007-9 salary cap breaches might raise the ire of Cats fans around here.
Tigers have beaten more top 4 teams this year than the Roosters, just saying.Swans deserve to be in that convo too.
The Storm are a good match though in HOW they do it given that they are famous for taking players from other teams who are often under utilised or very much just role players and become crucial components to what they do. The Storm recycle players better than any sporting organisation I’ve ever seen and it is absolutely freakish. I’m sick to death of them as a Roosters fan who’s side simply can’t seem to beat them in the last 4 years, and as someone who’s ’second team’ is the Panthers and as such the Storm perpetually represent their biggest obstacle (my partner is a panthers tragic so if the chooks can’t win I’m on their bandwagon) but geez it’s hard not to respect what they do
This is a key factor in making our era of dominance look so great, especially in comparison to Brisbane who had retention allowance, cost of living allowance and merger concessions.Geelong are irrelevant and a dead end. A successful Geelong hurts the growth of the AFL.
Geelong basically trade in players for free because cost of living is so low, so I wouldn't call your era of dominance that impressive.This is a key factor in making our era of dominance look so great, especially in comparison to Brisbane who had retention allowance, cost of living allowance and merger concessions.
Imagine if AFL HQ were invested in us succeeding so they could grow the game in Geelong.
How come Newcastle haven't dominated the NRL then?Geelong basically trade in players for free because cost of living is so low, so I wouldn't call your era of dominance that impressive.
It does.
The suggestion we’d ever get caught is incredibly insulting.
Who was the 3rd player?Side note to this. I think it was 2010 the two clubs trained together and played some touch footy.
Apparently everyone just stood back and watched Gaz jnr and Billy Slater go one on one just to watch the 3 best footy players in the country at the time ho at it.
That is absolute garbage! Geelong's dominance is because we have the best coach, the best recruitment team (Mackie & Wells), the best club management and the best culture. It hasn't always been like that; Geelong has been dominant since about 2007. Before then we couldn't attract players.Geelong basically trade in players for free because cost of living is so low, so I wouldn't call your era of dominance that impressive.

Is Geelong the Melbourne Storm equivalent?
Nup
Most of us actually like the Storm.
Didn't realize Geelong fans were so touchy about pointing out that it's a cheaper place to live therefore they can buy established players for less. It's just the truth of the matter.
Do the Storm cause as much online seething as Geelong do?
And they have necksGeelong players are thinner than Storm players
