Herald Sun reports Gysberts to be shown the door...Neeld has gone mad!!!

From what I have been told it's clear the GYS will be on the table come trade week.

We will not throw the kid out for nothing and Geelong will have to bring something good to the table.

Geelong will not be the only team after a young kid like Gysberts.

Pick18 to 25 would be what I think the kid is worth but we need men ready to go so I think a player like Knights would be great.

This is a disgrace IF this is right! 

Some serious questions of those in decision making need answers! 

Letting really good young promising kids go is ripping the fabric of this club down to its bones!

Gys, great young fellow some really serious injuries and we use him as trade bait!

Don't forget his first few games were sensational ...

I am really wondering where we are going?

What next ?

Jones for Tippett?

Hmm !! 

WONDERING NOW, BIG TIME!

thats true bubs. i wasn't there. the players appeared to be a bunch of bored kids at a lecture theatre. lets hope they were more motivated than I was. interested to know how others feel? once a school teacher always a school teacher?

School teachers all being the same, of course.

They can be very affective and a littel longer lasting if the sentiment is kept simple and like all good teaching /presentations repoeated the minimum 3 times.

Kennedy's was brilliant because you can bet your life the words , DONT THINK - DO !!! were ringing in the ears of those players for the rest of that game.

Best motivations/motivators stick to KISS

Didn't Kennedy's team lose that game?

Neeld has 2 more years to run in his contract. If he trades gysberts I'll be disappointed but I'll understand. Neeld doesn't have the time to sit around waiting fo potential to come good. If we get Shannon burns and another player or a late pick then we've done ok for our short term needs. Jack viney is likely to get the spot that the gys is after anyway, but gysberts will be a gun at a club like Geelong

I seem to recall that at the start of pre-season, the word around the camp fire was that neither Gysberts or Blease were setting the world on fire on the track. I myself had seen them looking like they had done LESS THAN NOTHING in their leave time between the 2011 and 2012 seasons. This was reflected in Neeld's refusal to play either of them early in the season, citing a lack of fitness to meet with the demands of modern footy - yet somehow, something twigged in Blease's brain - he pushed his way back. Gys did not.

I think there is something in that.

Calm down.

Gysberts is a talent but if you don't want to put the work in to get the most out of yourself, you can leave.

He has had his injury issues but he turned up to PS training the most unfit of every single player on the list. Every single player.

I don't know why you have such an affinity for players who have played less good games than you have fingers on your hand.

How about they earn our admiration from now on?

I didn't want to start a new thread but someone texted me (I'm in Canada) that neeld was going to step down due to health reason and Ratten was taking over. Eddie to announce it Wednesday. My old man on crack or what?

I'm speechless!

hi rr,

not the best example. not inspirational. nearly went to sleep watching it.

Talk to old Hawthorn players about Alan Jeans - they played like men possessed so they wouldn't ever have to hearJeans speak about anything. Brilliant coach who had the utmost respect from his players but was no orator.

There is more to coaching than being an inspirational speaker.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
