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.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
