Pods pushed disgrace

Post: # 1398060Post Con Gorozidis »

Premiership legend Pods has been pushed!
Argggh! Scream! hes a club legend! The Hawks would never disrespect a starlike that! Geelong are a rabble. They will always be rubbish with this crap culture who dont respect club legends.
Pods should have got a another contract and a tribute game involving jets flying over Corio Bay and and a 21 gun salute after all hes done for us.
Arghhhhhhh. Cryyyyyyyyyyyyy. Sooooooooooookkkkkkkk.
Rabble....... never happen at a good club. How dare they do this. Sooookkkkkkkk. Cryyyyyyyy. Waahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Cancelling my membership and that of all my extended family for the next millenium . Whiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnneee


Sound familiar?

It's a long time since we pushed a Premiership legend out of the club.

I have no idea what you are on about but if you are trying to compare pods to Dal or Joey then you are way off track. Or if you are saying the media should be comparing then you are further off track.

I hear what you are saying there Con and the same will most likely happen to Chapman, Hunt & Corey. The difference to our situation is the huge age gap we have on our list that was neglected in our drafting strategies prior to 2011. Geelong can afford to 'retire' these guys because they have the next group emerging, we can't unfortunately.

Wahhh moo whine sook!
Joey and Dal arent even being pushed. Pods really was pushed.
And many on here sooked about Milney being 'pushed'.
I am referring to the amount of emotional mumbo jumbo - much of it comparing us unfavourably to Geelong - which wasnt even based on reality but some bs rumours. Saying how bad a club we were and how Geelong never get rid of older players but they somehow just disappear into a fuzzy warm cloud.

Chapman is as good as gone and Hunt has already been delisted.

Geelong have been up for so long because they have been able to bring in young talent while keeping their vets on relatively modest contracts. I conservatively predict Geenlong will hve a downward swing in 2-3 years. can't stay up forever\

Sorry I must have missed the papers or media that said Milne was pushed. I cant think of one media outlet that had a go at our club for the way the 3 guys retired. The media loved it. The rest since is a different story and half of it is our fault. We as a club keep mentioning Dal andd Joey are contracted and at the moment are staying. We as a club must have put their names out there because otherwise why would contracted players even need to get mentioned by our club afterall they are contracted.

What Geelong did with Pods is similar to what we did with our retired players and we didnt cop it for that. What is happening with these other older guys still on our list has nothing to do with the way Geelong got rid of Pods.

im referring to some of our ss mates - not the media
plenty on here sooked that milne was 'pushed'
plenty made big emotional irrational comments how 'geelong never push any old players' with the idea that they somehow all go out like a flock of doves.
and many have waxed lyrical about how important 'tribute' and farewell games are and many have threatened to burn their memberships as a result of our disrespect for legends.
Im just saying each and every club makes hard calls at times based on list mgt issues at the time.
the hysteria has been ridiculous. especially for a club who just finished 3rd last.

Chapman supposedly offered one year deal for a 10 game season (providing that the list is relatively injury free).

weell i thought the point you were making was pretty obvious
although i think there is a thread lurking round about Mark Fine (in the media)
unless you want to argue the point about the status of SEN and M Fine as media

Chapman also gone with no tribute game or endless contract .
Geelong must be a rabble too with no respect too I guess. They will end up like Melbourne for getting rid of all their mentors to guide their youngsters.
Whine piss moan.

but I also dont think its a time for rejoicing
Chappy & the jpod would have known before the last game that their times up & geelong make more right decisions than wrong ones
Podsiardsly was a brave move that paid off +dividends - chapman has been a powerhouse for the club & yep he kicked the goal that sunk us
thats the difference - they walk away with a medal round their neck

He was 'pushed' and it was a 'disgrace' according to several (a vocal minority i admit)

Then after that all hell bloke loose as first people imagined dal had been 'pushed' then a domino effect of joey and finally rooey all 'pushed' and something Geelong would 'never do'.

All im saying is Chappy is every bit the club legend compared to any of our 'club legends'.
And he wasnt allowed to write his own contract. He wasnt given a tribute or 'farewell' game.
But does that make Geelong a rabble who disrespects its stars and has no culture and makes all the young players have nothing to aspire to?

Tribute games are for clubs and players that are not challenging and therefore afford to do so.

So be it with Chapman.

If I was to get the arse tomorrow at work, I couldn't exactly have a tribute day with my clients could I?

We have no respect for the runner ups of 09/10! There arent enough statues!
We are going to be like Mlebourne
Whine. Piss. Moan.
