Brad's presser VS GC

[gokangas]

Any reports yet? Which stats did we win and did he say he knows our problem and it is easy to fix?

 

[Tas]

He doesn't know why other than our starts are killing us. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-05-04/our-starts-are-killing-us

lol "we will pick the team on form"

The game starts at XXX. Be ready to play a half hour before not after.

That might be a start for a professional team.

Wow. That must be a new initiative. Looks like 12 changes at least this week.

Which would be?

I can't be bothered listening but please tell me he didn't say that?

Brad's worst presser imo.

Unconvincing and void of ideas.

And he's usually gold class at pressers (seriously).

I read it as that he is over the bullshit inconsistency and perhaps even lost faith in some of the players. What that means insofar as selection goes I have no idea.

Maybe. His actions will reveal his effectiveness so this was comment only on how his presser came across.

I'll translate for you........ Wells ans Swallow in, Greenwood out because he is my sacrificial lamb after a shit performance and Tippett out because he is the young player that always cops the brunt of it after senior players have put in a crap performance. The rest I am backing in to redeem themselves.

Tippett I can understand because we won't need 4 key falls against the Lions, but if Greenwood misses at the expense of Basti or McKenzie then I'll be ****ing ropable.

 

[r_boy]

Biggest insight was his frustrations regarding the players moving the ball so slow and stagnant. Pretty much they just didn't turn up.

I'll join you, but won't be surprised in the slightest if it happens? Pig is always a sacrificial lamb when it comes to the token Brad Scott change.

Got a feeling things may have changed for Levi in that regard.

 

[WesternRoo]

It probably is a week where he can put a broom through the team, as he has 2 outstanding inclusions regardless.

Does he have the stones to do it? History would show no.

I'm just over watching it. 5 seasons in, the same crap.

Swallow and Wells are walk ins.

We need to get Wood, Garner and Harper in ASAP.

There are players out there who do not have the athleticism, size, skill or all of the above to compete at the level.

Adams, Bastinac and Tippett will should make way this week for Wells, Wood and Swallow.

Firrito for JMac when fit and Greenwood for Harper-Garner in a few weeks.

Gibson has hit his ceiling too, despite not being the worst.

One can only hope, because he deserves a decent crack at it the way he has played this year.

Not enough McKenzie in this post for my liking. Still waiting to see this star quality everyone raves about?

Didn't take an ounce of responsibility as expected. How much can you blame the players and not the coach?

Hi tactical ineptness was just as big a contributor to that slow start than the players performance. McKenna must love coaching against Scott, he always sets up to Gold Coasts advantage and then is so stubborn he refuses to change it.

He did, he often says logical stuff during the press conference and we get nothing when they pick the side.

McKenzie destroyed us last year, so I'd assume behind Ablett he'd be the first player, as coach, you'd worry about stopping... McKenzie started loose, and continued to play loose throughout stages of the game...

This surprised me because it has been the status quo for almost every quarter bar a few. Is he telling us that he can't get this very easy to coach group to do what is asked of them most of the time? He must be taking the piss...

Yep mental giant is our Brad. I am starting to believe that the games we have won in the past have been on the back of pure player performance and not any tactical knowledge Brad has brought to the table. Starts to make me wonder just how good we could be if we had a coach that was actually tactically smart?

From all reports he is great on the sports science and player management, but the match day coaching is a little lacking for mine, for a bloke who has been in the caper long enough.

Gets a bit old after 5 seasons. You can only trot out the old we are teaching them to play the game style for so long.
