List Mgmt. Welcome Bailey Smith - officially (and finally) traded to Geelong

[year of the cat]

He’s a dickhead but he’s now (almost) our dickhead.

You paraphrased me!

 

[Footy Smarts]

Good player at his best. Some of the off-field stuff makes me nervous though. He's probably the riskiest trade we've done since Ottens. Fingers crossed it works out just as well.

We have a solid culture and from all reports he works very hard on the field

I think this one will work out fine …Oliver might be a bigger challenge if he lands here

Risky in what sense Footy Smarts?

We've taken a punt on some players with loose reputations before; sometimes it's worked out, sometimes it hasn't.

Jack Steven, Mitch Clark, Tyson Stengle.

If you're talking the cost, again, we've gone all in a few times in recent past.

I imagine the number of female members increases markedly next season!

We’ll give 100k members a shake next year.

Whispers on the Hawks board he’s still gonna choose them.

The ones with questionable reputations were ultra cheap. The only ones more expensive than Smith were Cameron and Danger absolutely elite players with no questions over them off-field.

This could work out brilliantly but it's risky.

Wishing him another ACL and a broken neck is what I read.

One comment on Twitter was a 3 letter word starting with 'D'...

I had no issue reporting it

Not sure if I've got rose coloured glasses on our something, but were we as Geelong fans (at least on here) ever this bad when Kelly requested a trade back to WA?

Sign me up for The Bailey Smith Experience.

Man I was going to change my username to that this time last year but it never eventuated. Wonder if I'm too late

 

[Kobe Gryant]

Decent player, just wish he was better looking.

It's awesome to see a guy with such clear physical inadequacies make it this far in life.

Carna d***head!

I'm sure you do ok KG.

No need to feel inferior.

Dogs they are

Aubergines are the most appropriate emoji in response to this news.

No idea about you + foxdog50 saying

Hoops can make even a battler like Bailey look decent on the eyes

His jumper could be all blue after he snorts the white stripes.

Have you seen that episode of 'Friends' with Brad Pitt?

There's a bit where Chandler mentions that it's better for his ego if they don't stand right next to one another.

That's how I feel about Bailey. I like my title as an 8.5, don't make me feel like a 3 please Baz.

 

[winty]

Gotta love being a Geelong fan...

That's a lot of members to shake

We must give Bailey a chance

I believe that his dedication to training could morph into a terrific attitude in the right place.

I acknowledge your reticence, was an absolute ‘no’ to him originally. Then transitioned to ‘In Wells I trust’.

Hoping he thrives at Geelong, he’s been given a second chance.

That was already an aim - 100 years of Ford sponsorship with 100k members the aim

Bailey on the membership posters may be a help

I actually don't rate Pitt that highly.

8.5 eh

At least the members will be standing at attention
