It's very sad that Geelong gives more plaudits to a plodding midfielder than to the great Gary Ablett snr .
Not as sad as Richmond pissing all over Fartin before he was even fully out the door.
One of the first moves he made was to take down some references to the club’s recent glory years, including one picture of the club’s drought-breaking 2017 premiership.

“I had I had the luxury of walking in and recognising different photos that are up that might have been (on the wall) for too long and things like that,” he told 7News on Monday night.

...

“Richmond has a new recruit ahead of Adem Yze’s first season,” Cleary said.

“Don’t be shocked driving down Punt Road this summer ... a life-sized camel added to the Tigers’ inner-sanctum.”
The premiership stuff had to go to bring in an inflatable camel. You can NOT make this sh*t up!

Selwood is fading into the mist now. History doesn't remember players who didn't have exceptional skills. They remember players like Buddy and Dusty.

What a shame Richmond is pissing on its own history and first club legend by demolishing the 120 year old Jack Dyer Stand for a plastic, artificial training centre paid by the Victorian Tax Payer
 
It's the lifesized camel Ozzyey bought with the funds he received after flogging off the premiership memorabilia.

Brian Clough did something very similar at Leeds United (took down all the trophies and photos of the team's success won by Don Revie) which really pissed the Leeds players off, esp King Billy (Bremner)

Cloughy was sacked only 44 days later. They made a film about it actually (The Damned United)

We got not even a quarter of what those scat scammers did and we funded the rest ourselves, they also begged for even more money for a bloody new scoreboard.

It's not begging when the state govt willingly hands it to us on a silver platter. It'd be rude not to accept their generous offers.

Did they also get a camel?
 
Great news, $4M scoreboard paid for by the Vic Govt. is going up now.


I've seen these types of rebuilds before, it's usually dodgy road contractors who are mates of the pollies and do endless upgrades of the same place over and over again. Alphabet stadium will never been finished until you have a clean out. It wouldn't surprise me if it's the same group always building at the joint and the list of owners & employees would be an interesting one.
 
No offence, but what kind of tourist attractions does Geelong have?
There’s Corio Village shopping centre where you can see the local wildlife in it’s natural habitat, Corio Bay Roadhouse, Viva Energy refinery, and as someone else pointed out , the greatest lump of polystyrene you’ll ever see, The Spinx Hotel.

Local shopping centres are great when visiting anywhere. You could spend a few days there naming the local wildlife after your favorite Big Footy poster or compare them to the ones from yours
