is there a context where this statement can be taken to be anything but ridiculous?

Hang on.

This bloke has been completely caught out with the 6-6-6 rule and claims it is "hard" to fix, and with this in mind he now claims a 0-2 starting record can be overcome..................................exactly how?

Same bloke that had time before everyone else to work on the rules of 666 as he was on the committee implementing the changes!!!!

 

[giantroo]

Ranked #18 in the competition for centre clearances.

 

[Dingster]

Ranked #18 in the competition for centre clearances.

....but #1 in backing his players.

This is perhaps the main source of my disappointment in BS. At the Family Day a month or so ago, he was given the microphone for 5-10 minutes and as usual, spoke very well. He said words to the effect of "Some people think the new rules changes won't make much difference, but believe me, they will make a significant difference - and we are particularly well placed to take advantage of them".

Then we dole out 4 weeks of on field shitfulness and he now comes out and says we are struggling with the 6-6-6. WT actual F?

 

[Gasometer]

We are coming up on Footy Classified re our stupidity over 6-6-6

‘History being rewritten’

No, we are moving into a new era

There was an era before the centre diamond

There was an era when the diamond cane in

There was an era when the square came in

There is an era where the 6-6-6 has been introduced

There will be another era when the configuration changes again

Come on mate. He’s been selling snake oil for 10 years now. His bullshit is nothing new, it’s just finally everyone is starting to see. He is a fraud.

I think he's been a pretty good coach overall. But 10 years is a long time without a top four finish...comes a time when a fresh approach is needed.

 

[The Brady Bunch]

Ranked #18 in the competition for centre clearances.

You can't blame Scotts for that. It's not as if he has warehoused a clearance specialist in the magoos.

True, and it's not as if Goldy has been a dominant tap ruckman. If only he was, maybe we could work out a plan to take advantage of it.

 

[Harris 10]

I steer clear of most AFL media shows so can anybody show me the quote on what he said about us struggling to adapt to the new rules.

 

[ferball]

Our season is over - Duck

He said we could win the flag last year so i guess we're on for finals then.

 

[Grogg]

is there a context where this statement can be taken to be anything but ridiculous?

Yep.

 

[Grogg]

That's the coaching department explaining our forward set-up through the innovative use of mime.

“I sit on the Competition Committee so I’ve had these discussions over an 18-month period, so I certainly endorse the changes because I think it’s really good for the game,” Scott said on Fox Footy’s AFL 360.

“I didn’t anticipate being on the receiving end of it in the first two weeks. I think we rank 18th for centre bounce clearances and scores against from those clearances, so it’s hurt us initially. But it’s really good for the game.”

That's nice Brad. Tell me again, who pays your ****ing wages?!

This is in sync with reports that his primary goal as an AFL coach is to "develop outstanding young men".

This was the most frustrating thing on Sunday Goldie getting the centre tap out but none of our mids in the tap zone to get the clearance.

I understand all the frustration. I am equally frustrated.

However

Is there not an element of the players not executing the plan?

It is not a computer game.

 

[Samsquanch]

Is there not an element of the players not executing the plan?

Maybe. Do you know what the plan is?

If we have one, it isn't working.

 

[kelman]

I don’t think the plan is to fumble, slip over, miss targets and not tackle.
