I agree with you.
But, what if Trac and Clazza came out early and stated their commitment to the club as soon as the rumours started? They didn’t. We looked stupid.
The length of the two threads is reflective of our management and comms.
The other effect is it flushes out what players are tradable at rival teams.
Black ops.
In reality we are not trading premiership winning mids for chicken change.

Top 10 for the team that finished 14th is no great flex. How did it work out for Terlich when he finished top 3? Did he become a future captain?
He's not Ron Barassi but he's a good small forward who improves each season. Kicks goals too.
Do you have a point or did you just need to slag him?

Sitting here in my office in Baidoa, Somalia, I have stress-eaten a packet of Java house macadamia bickies, a bag of Natural Confectionary dinosaur jellies, a packet of bbq almonds, and am about to get into my cheese stash, reading this thread. I find this whole saga, more stressful than the Type 63 107 rockets Shabbab lob at the UN base next door and I'm not even joking. And it's not Oliver leaving that is killing me, though I am depressed about that, it is how inept the club comes across in the media that is truly triggering. Geelong might as well put a collar on us and parade us along Eastern Beach Road.
Are you in charge of the famine relief?

Barrett is a bottom feeder that tries to generate 'stories'. Just saw him on the Sunday Footy Show trying to trade Harry McKay out of Carlton again, this time to Brisbane Lions 🤦♂️
Barrett probably got bullied quite a bit at school and developed his obnoxious and abrasive manner from this.
If he was bullied more he might have had a deeper insight into what a [censored] of a man he is.

A friend of mine sought revenge by getting "I hate Mum" tattooed on hie forehead.
When asked why he responded
"Tatt for titt"

Don’t trust a Detective, they’re all bloody dodgy.
That aside, he was our national recruiting officer for some time and you’re saying he’s now our list manager? Running on little sleep and trying to make sense of the OP.
My old man was a detective and nobody alive had a bad word to say about him.

They should scrap the Downlow. Or at least remove the umpires from the process.
The umpires are too busy awarding frees for angry looks and expressions to make a clear judgement on the best player.
An idependent panel and /or coaches would be better judges.
The umps are too busy keeping the scores close on games and reacting to the crowd ,swaying results to fit narratives etc.

I'm struggling to find any information supporting this claim.
The 1896 Premiership (VFA) was decided by a "Play-off" as Collingwood and South were tied on 58 points each at end of season.
The previous "playoff 'was between Melbourne and Geelong in 1878.
The "Playoff" was played at the East Melbourne Cricket Ground in front od about 12000.
South won the game 6.9 to 5.10 (Only goals were counted towards a win)
Umpire J.J. Trait.
Old Dee attended the match on his Penny Farthing.

City of Casey 365,000 and getting bigger by the day
You have to wonder if we're tapping in to the huge numbers out there
Free memberships to the kids? Let's face it, we're out there even after the Caulfield training base gets built (and that won't be until at least 2028 if it goes ahead)
In the meantime, the club needs to embrace the locals and get them on board
Let's be realistic-They are more into Cricket.
