Player Watch #8: Bailey Scott

[Snake_Baker]

Just because the coaches didn't drop him, doesn't mean he didn't deserve to be dropped.
And he was dropped, he was delisted.... you can mark it any which way you want, in my eyes - that's a tick.

10 years, 167 games & 7 finals.

You can mark it any which way you want, in my eyes - this makes the extreme critics look stupid.

To me the tZ McMillan call was a neutral - neither right nor wrong. JMac did enough to be considered a serviceable AFL player over a long period of time - not great, had definite weaknesses - but he did enough to be role player. He wasn't a bust for a pick in the late 30's.

The call was neither here nor there. It was the repetition.

Brent Harvey was delisted. The nature of the end of a career doesn't define it.

Some clips highlighting the "vanilla" that made him so attractive to the North recruiters:

[Snake_Baker]

HE'S ARGUABLY THE MOST WELL ROUNDED KID ON THE LIST!!!!

 

[The Warlord]

Bailey's game actively developed last year when he added contested marking to his skill set.

Busy day for you Snake?

 

[Snake_Baker]

Busy day for you Snake?

I can post this crap AND cure cancer at the same time.

 

[Kangaroo Cat]

I want to see the scott brothers vs the daicos brothers.

He reminds me of another vanilla type of player called Jimmy Bartel.

He reminds me of a faster Sam Gibson

So a guy that was drafted early and made his debut as an 18-year-old picking up the Rising Star nomination in the process reminds you of a guy that didn't play a game of seniors until he was 26?

Correct
bailey Scott is faster Sam gibson

 

[AnEmptyChair]

Correct
bailey Scott is faster Sam gibson

Yeah, if Sam was also a better kick, a better decision maker, a better overhead mark, and had the ability to take grabs and kick goals as a forward.

dont be silly sam and baileys disposal efficiency was the same along with the above

and all the gibson defenders pointed to such disposal efficiency

 

[Psicosis]

Correct
bailey Scott is faster Sam gibson

Because they're both wingman?

Bailey at 20 years old is better then Gibson in just about every category (bar aerobic running likely). So he's more then a faster SG, he's a better SG.

Plus The Other Gibbo didn't even debut until he was 26.

Gibbo was elite off field...

 

[Swallow_Wood]

Gibbo was elite off field...

He most certainly was and still is I'd say.

Good role player Gibbo, wasn't the best kick but could be relied upon to get the job done week in, week out. Every quality team needs blokes like him. If Bailey can get to his level of consistency in doing the team things, and add that attacking threat on a consistent basis, we will have an excellent player on our hands.

 

[DesertRoo]

Gibbo was elite off field...

Not enough is said about someone who can change from an elite inside mid at box hill to a running machine at North. Wasn’t the most skilled but certainly one of the most dedicated..

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Was very good. Seemed right at home on the wing. Was a tad quieter at half-forward, but he can switch with Froggy in that role if we go down that route.
