Or in Stewys case a moustache that can solve a homicide case in 1980s new York entirely within the time constraints of a 30min TV episode

Probably better suited to an old western

Geelong are merely an extension of league headquarters. Rules are changed on their say so, dodgy under the table deals are made both with players and coaches. It won’t be long before they introduce a cost of living allowance for all Victorian teams outside of Melbourne.

If that was the case, Gary Ablett Jr would never have gone to the Gold Coast and the Mark Blicavs Ruck Nomination Rule would never have been introduced.

Chris Scott just interviewed on Ch 7. Turns out his new position is not a soft cap rort. The deal was ticked off by the AFL before Scott committed.

So it's not exactly a massive scandal isn't it? It's been sorted out quickly and done well. At least the current AFL leaders are not as corrupt.

Andrew Demetriou on the other hand... Yeah. He tried to sweep the Essendon drug scandal under the rug and hoped it blew over.

Yeah that scandal got casual viewers. So bad publicity is better than no publicity.

here is the official heirarchy of AFL have's to have-not's, if you're ever wondering why this happened to this club but not that, if you're ever wondering why X got suspended but Y got off, anything and everything, consult the table

Geelong
Melbourne
Collingwood
West Coast
Sydney
Brisbane
Richmond
Hawthorn
Carlton
Bulldogs
Gold Coast
West Sydney
Essendon
North Melbourne
Fremantle
St. Kilda
Adelaide
Port Adelaide

West Coast should be anchored to the bottom mate, not near the top, lmao.

I have posted this before and will post it again...

AFL in my opinion with the 18 clubs have prefered these certain (group of) clubs to win the flag.

1. NSW (Sydney and GWS) and Queensland (Brisbane and Gold coast ) clubs

2. Teams that play home games at the MCG (Essendon, Carlton, Collingwood, Melbourne, Richmond and Hawthorn).

3. Geelong

4. Teams that play home games at docklands. (Saints, dogs , Kangaroos)

5. SA (Port and Crows) and WA (Eagles and dockers) .


Tassie will be bunched into the SA and WA sides. Once Tassie has 400,000 each for Hobart and Launceston, each of them will have a club they will be in the bottom too as prefered winners.

No idea but in WA, the Optus deal wasn’t as lucrative as the Subi deal as the stadium operator was paying a proportion back to the state government for the 1.5B stadium they built. The ticket prices went up though and there were more seats so in the end the clubs do better out of it.

I assume the same would happen in Geelong. It’s not as simple as going off a 15 year old quote and adding on 15k seats worth of extra revenue like some punters believe.

The whole point is Geelong can pick and choose what suits them best, you have enough money that playing more at the G is better to experience the ground compared to 2 games a year most interstate teams get if they are lucky.

How much did the Eagles and Dockers contribute to Optus being built?
Cause for an assist they don’t own, Geelong contributed $50m towards the upgrades of the stadium to what it currently is.
