Only one season with us as I recall,  before we flicked the bean.

I guess that term means something different where you're from...

 

Funny player Georgiou; massively undersized key defender, average skills, but somehow quite a good stopper.

His last game was our great win at the Adelaide oval.

    I saw him and his girlfriend walking up Bosisto St in Richmond where I was living at the time (very close to Bernie Vince) and him taking a call on his mobile. He looked pretty upbeat but it was the same morning he was called into the club and advised he would be released. I remember reading later that he thought he was going to get a contract extension so was really disappointed.

    I thought he was pushed aside a bit too prematurely. I recall being surprised. I believe it had more to do with extra football activities....

    Probably didn’t helped that he and Terlich dressed up as Rolf Harris and his young ‘friend’  at Mad Monday.

    Both were sacked/delisted.

    Ah yes. I remember that. Perhaps should've just gone as his doppelganger Mr Bean.

    I recall Terlich survived. He wasn't delisted until 2016. He was never a Roos boy...

    I thought he was offered another year but he declined to go home and earn much better money with a job as an engineer or something? I vaguely remember reading something about him saying he set himself the challenge to play top level and he was happy with what he achieved.

    I also remember the Uber Alex Georgiou Facebook page was a bit funny

    Georgiou said this after being delisted at the conclusion of the 2014 season: 

    “I’m obviously disappointed I didn’t do enough to secure a second season in the top league, but in terms of playing seven AFL games off a rookie list, and even to make it on a list, are things I never thought I was going to achieve.”

    (Apologies, I lost the link to where he said this). 

    He took a decent pay-cut to come to us and after being delisted returned to Norwood for the following season. Seems like a bright lad and appears to be doing very well for himself.

    Thanks for the clarification. Though he was delisted after the 2014 season.

    He last played in round19 2014 against Brisbane in a horrid loss at Marvel, effectively making him the ultimate list clogger for the  2015 and 2016 seasons.

    I can recall Roos ripping into him at 3 quarter time of a GWS loss.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
