Re: 8 out of 22 tonight less tha 2 years at the club
im still in awe of what the club has managed to do in the last 2 years regarding recruiting. We were seriously gone the day lyon walked out. The cupboard was nearly bare regarding good kids, than in come waters ,pelchin and crew and turned it all around. Not enough credit is given to the board for t...

McEvoy
Interesting comparison,
M Kruzer pick 1 2007 draft,
B McEvoy pick 9 2007 draft
At the time I was drooling at the potential of Kruzer and could only dream of having the best ruck man in the comp, especially with our lack of at the time.
Who's dreaming now! Well done big boy you are a beast!

Re: The Melbourne Saints
Absolute joke this thread even exists! What's wrong with u people? Do u think Geelong supporters in their spare time imagine what it would be like if they merged with the bulldogs! Try having a positive winning mentality, we've had a good crack at it, this year we will develop, draft early and reboo...

Re: Who we should chase at season's end?
Just had look at he gws list, gee they have some talent! I know we already have a history of packaging up some players or a pick, I'm thinking for instance pick 5 for Taylor Adams, and Dom Tyson. They are chock full of mids and an early draft pick which could grab them a key pos player might do he j...

Re: Spencer White /Aaron Siposs/Jimmy Webster
Sippa has more talent on his left toe than Tim Allen! Siposs is a forward and a god dam good one at that! He is a natural lead up player with excellent hands and an excellent kick at goal, he also has a great leap. Scotty needs to move him there and let him develop. I could see him as a 50 goal forw...

Re: Why can't we copy their model
There is no doubt about how miserable our drafting has been and how extraordinary geelongs has been all I can say is that hopefully our last 2 years of recruiting has been good enough to turn things around.

Re: Why can't we copy their model
Isn't recruiting a 21yr old ruck man and forward recruiting for needs? This time last year we had only 1ruckman on our list now we have 2 ready to play! Give the team a break its 1 game in a very long season. If we beat Richmond all will be forgiven!

Re: Statement!
Dempster and fisher ain't almost all our back line, we had fish missing last year as well as gwilt at the same time. We never had roberton last year or Stanley as a defender or 2 genuine ruck man leaving Blake as a def only!
We will win and win well!

Re: Midfield
If newnes and Ross can step it up a little this year it will definitely add to the mid depth that we need.
We don't need them to necessarily star, more just to hold their own at this stage of their development.

Re: Tom Lee
Give the boy a chance, he'll have pressure to perform, just needs to settle and adjust to afl footy. Not if he still hasn't got the body for it, which a couple of posters have suggested. That means at least one big year in the gym before we can expect to see anything from him. (Unless he's got some...

The funny thing about the intr club matches are we want our forwards to kick 10 and our defenders not to concede a goal!

Re: What Must Goddard be Thinking Now???
If they are found guilty what are the real possibilities for punishment? Really you couldn't ban a whole squad from playing, maybe start their next 2 seasons with minus 20 points putting them 5 games behind the rest of the comp and shifting their draft picks to the end of each round for those 2 seas...

Stop your whining! We haven't had a 21 year old on our list hat has played 30+ games in 10 years. You simply don't get gifted 37 games at that age without ability. Great get has given more to afl than 100% of our youngsters.
