...That'll be 🎵 Easy as 1 (Adelaide?) 2 (Brisbane?) 3 (Coast?) 🎵

No wonder we had no forwards. I see the door. I'll use it...

I hope when we get to an at-least-18-round (incl. Devils) season, and all games are being played at Princes P, Victoria P, Western O, etc., there's room for a 'Heritage Game' at Casey for us Southwest Gippslanders!🥹

Frankston's George Grey suspended for five matches for rough conduct in their Boxhawks final. He'll particularly be rueing the chance to front up against us?

@Jaded No More 's answer was powerful, but yours is the type of answer I was after, Luci. Is it clear the AFL can't 'follow the money'? If they can't, can someone else? Come on, D'land legal eagles! Why are Geelong's arrangements more immune from investigation than those of the other clubs'? It does seem likely the tax and zoning possibilities are 'unique' to Geelong's setting (though I have a personal connection to where Cameron is, and there'd be hell to pay if a rezoning was attempted!)

I restrained myself on that one, graz! Veiled reference to it in my 3rd para. My forlorn wish is in the 2nd sentence of that para. My last sentence is probably the reality 🥺

It's appropriate this thing is on a 'Rumours' thread. I confess it's one that nags at me. Does anyone on here know if investigation and/or whistleblowing can establish it as fact? Is the AFL's reach into it constrained, by law or constitution, say? That vested interest, of the AFL and its media, is the constraint is harder (impossible?) to prove as 'fact'. Is there a combination of media not in the AFL's thrall (who?) and disaffected potential whistleblower out there for an investigative reveal? Is it actually (sadly) that important?...

That's better. Dees football.

I posted this on the 'Hatch...etc' thread a couple of days ago, for what it, as a 'reporter's' report, is worth: From the AFL's 'Inside Trading' panel: "West Coast, Richmond, North Melbourne, Melbourne, Port Adelaide, St Kilda, Carlton and Sydney have all completed their exit interviews with players across recent days. – Riley Beveridge"

Oops - looked at the team sheet and overlooked that he was on the 'Emg' line🙈 And Howes: Howes it I missed him?!😄

It was a heavy tag, too; you could see him chatting the umpire about it. But he still broke it to feed off Campbell's positioning signals (and subsequent delivery!) As did his stoppage colleagues.

2022 Grand Final says hullo! 😄 (though only Woewodin, Laurie and Baldi from today's side can draw on it...) And, if Tommy provides what he did today, no probs! (Your capital 'IF' noted!)

Yep, but not today! Charlie lined up at CHF through the 2nd at least and in the 3rd till he went off! Cross at FF and Ooze2 anchored there, too (though he's not short - gives Spindles Johnson a run!)

It'll be on the AFL fixtures and results site, tomorrow, I reckon.

Chin, Lever, Rooey, Caleb, Vines, Disco. And Ooze senior, as mentioned.

...and one might be his Dad, who's watching from the outer!

Up to six now!

Campbell a strong game.

Charlie lined up at CHF then. Tall forward options being tested?

The 'Oooooze' chant is back! At least three voices...

Authoritative mark, big goal

Actually, 'across' at flag level but 'down' at ground?

Willy, though it was a bit across the ground at times. With us now.

Well probably debate this all day!😄

Wind shifted to cross-ground, ahead of rain front? Useful early goals?
