Previously known as LITD.

Clearly after almost 60 years of no cup, we were satisfied with one and have now gone back to the veil of negativity.

Absolutely seconded. Thankyou.

He helped us win a gf and not just the NS, so I shouldn't hold any grudges. He hasn't been awesome of late . But he could do a Dangerfield and thrive in his last eight years. I have no idea how the contract thing works. It's interesting that we may lose Oliver, Tracc on top of Anb. Some collective ball magnet and movers there. With May moved on and out fwd line still all over the place, King has his work cut out for him. 2026 is going to be tough.

He seemingly wants out and if that's certain, than most of us probably don't want him around. He's been a great servant and done wonders for us but to move on now for some reason leaves a bad taste in my mouth. He has every right to pursue options for his financial future but ..... He is contracted. That should mean something. Even a handshake should. So maybe step back CP and ponder how you would like to remembered. And yes heaps of players leave clubs but it doesn't mean it's all fine and dandy to disrespect your written word. Maybe the club did wrong by him re the Darcy Moore incident so maybe he has an excuse I'll fence sit as per usual .

Fully agree, Mr Turner. Maybe because I'm an older afficianado of the game , I like the traditional aspects. So they have to rebounce a throw if the first one goes awry. Big deal. Is it so much of a disruption? Perhaps umps just need more experience. They certainly do with most of the rules.

Ha ha ha Thanks heaps Forkem. I loved it. That border Collie was excellent. But Sailor (looked lke a different dog) if not under contract would be great addition to give us some speed and momentum out of our back line.

Brisbane Lions. But on a serious note....we definitely need another proven ruck. Max is getting older despite still crushing it. What if he's injured. Two big experienced key fwds. One big experienced defender. A couple of killer mids. But I'm not up with who is available. I'm pretty sure we will see Tracc move on despite being contracted .Maybe Oliver .

Melbourne superstar flies in to meet with AFL rivalMelbourne’s Norm Smith Medal-winning midfielder Christian Petracca has touched down in Adelaide as he continues to pursue a move away from the Demons.It's news.co.m.au so who knows.

Your really just too kind😀

This is true. But I'm not sure if our club can throw stones given what we did to Tracc. But I suppose that doesn't change things PF. Cheers. I don't know why I disdain Geelong almost as much as Cwood, Essendon, Port and Carlton. Funny how footy allegiances and enemies develop. But I digress. Let's hope the AFL throw the book at them.

I'm simply stating that according to the stats, we have been more successful in our finals then them. Now. Only because you've got me sidetracked Yea sure Id love to win more games and make finals. Bit what I was really trying to say and it was not too complicated, was that the pies get a hard time for failing in finals. But I think Geelong are better at it now and a name for it would be good because my annoying brother in law is a cats fan. And Im sick of being the bunnies the AFL always send down to Kardinia without exception. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Well snuck through.

Not always accurate but always entertaining. Thanks JB.

They choke under pressure or make finals due to home ground advantage. In terms of flags in this time we both have one. And they played a lot my finals. A lot lot more. So our record is pretty good

If we put Petty in defence than with him and Turner it's young. I'm sure King won't persist with that old madness.

I was pretty down on us losing two double chances back to back but Cats record is worst. Yea good effort to make finals consistently. But shocking conversion rate. Is it the Home ground getting them to finals they don't belong in,? Something's NQR.

Need a term like Collie wobbles for Geelong. Since 2012 inclusive....they have made finals a dozen times for one cup. Such a shame. Suggestions?

Spot on LH Pies were definitely helped out by some questionable calls.

Went backwards as a mid this year but seemed to spend much less time in the role. Didn't seem to have a great year. But how many did? Hope he tears it up in 2026.

Thanks heaps Dd That's an image I definitely didn't need.

Yea Na. Besides his age I couldn't bring myself to seeing him in red and blue. It would be like seeing Tracc in black and white.

Generally this is very true and always played a significant part of their success. Although this year their win loss ratio at home wasn't excellent. But even though it's just over an hour away from the G it's like travelling to Perth. And of course we are the mugs who play there every single year.

I hope we keep all the players in the first post. Except Lever. I don't think we would get much for him though. Seems to be 3 to 4 clubs chasing Tracc so we will be lucky to keep him.

I hope we can do back to back one day. What an awesome feeling. Lions have done the trifecta before. Imagine how pumped all those lads are.

Thanks Tu but no point making top four continuously and not winning the silverware. That's my two cents at least.
