JHF forced Geelong to make a very early sub call. So Scott probably would have given him five.
Yep. In the press conferences Hinkley praised Butters as captain and then said JHF was great too. Scott went straight to talking about JHF.

C Scott is known as a bias coaches award voterI really would like to see which coach voted for who.
Given those votes, Scott and Hinkley were split on best on field, with Butters and JHF getting 5+4.
Past that, they only agreed on 1 other player being in the top five. As 2 of Rioli, Wines and Guthrie would have picked up the 3 votes, the other 2+1.
Which means for Stengle and Holmes to get votes, only 1 coach would have voted for them.
I kind of get Stengle but not Holmes.
I’m guessing Scott voted as if Geelong had won.
I reckon it splits this way:JHF forced Geelong to make a very early sub call. So Scott probably would have given him five.
It is for that reason we will never see the coaches award as anything other than what it is…. A gimmick.C Scott is known as a bias coaches award voter

Eh it's still the 2nd highest award you can win for mine behind B and F in a premiership yearIt is for that reason we will never see the coaches award as anything other than what it is…. A gimmick.
Don’t worry, the Brownlow isn’t much better.

So that he could spend 3 minutes talking about how good the Irish bloke did on JHF and then 5 minutes about the umpires and completely ignore getting any questions about the first half.Yep.

Even Graham Cornes
I believe the error we made was 'not being based on Victoria'.I'm so confused as to what we did wrong with Aliir if this is allowed. Can anyone explain it?
Port admitted they did not do the concussion test immediately after the head clash and they should have done the test. Geelong did to the test. That is the difference.I'm so confused as to what we did wrong with Aliir if this is allowed. Can anyone explain it?
I imagine they'll finish top 4 yet have three top ten draft picks, so yeah, this would be a possibility.I get the feeling that Scott is angry at himself but being too cowboyish with his tactics and he ultimately cost the game on the weekend. Once he implemented his adjustments, they almost cruised to victory but ran out of time.
It was a great win by the boys but underlying it is a bit of worry against them next time.
I will say that Geelong will no doubt throw a couple of sheep stations at Freo for Sean Darcy in the offseason.
You could argue they lost the game at selection when they rested a few guys and lost Dangerfield to injury.I get the feeling that Scott is angry at himself but being too cowboyish with his tactics and he ultimately cost the game on the weekend.

Pretty bland stuff.
Interestingly, at the end of their video, it looked like Rioli kicked the ball before the siren went.
They admitted they didn’t do the scat test, which Geelong also didn’t do until after the game. That’s the one that takes a minimum of 15 minutes off. Port did an HIA, and supposedly he passed it, but they admitted they should have done the scat based off of the footage (which forms part of the hia). So while he must have passed the questions the hia was obviously not thorough enough. Geelong however didn’t even remove Cameron from the ground. How you can complete the hia on field I have no idea. But maybe the footage wasn’t bad enough to warrant it.Port admitted they did not do the concussion test immediately after the head clash and they should have done the test. Geelong did to the test. That is the difference.
With Aliir what occured was a HIA on the bench that determined he didn't need to undergo the 20 minute SCAT5 concussion assessment.Port admitted they did not do the concussion test immediately after the head clash and they should have done the test. Geelong did to the test. That is the difference.
Just a reminder, nothing to see here
Good call, Caro.You could argue they lost the game at selection when they rested a few guys and lost Dangerfield to injury.
I don’t think they took Port seriously enough. Forced them into an early tactical-sub and when they woke up, they were (just) too far behind.
