’s press conference…his weird answers and meandering answers within answers and chopping and changing subject within answers. And the cut short press conference. Was full blown breakdown. Wow. Does he know how to lose? Or they just never thought they would lose this game? The media had pump them up so big that there was nothing to hold onto when they fell.

It's a great day!go the lions

Pity the media let Scott completely control that very brief press conference from start to finish.

Bizzare. Took him 2 whole minutes of talking before there was even an opening to ask a question and already threw an excuse in there

That’s the interview



Nice of him to claim that Brisbane and Hawthorn were the form teams of the competition. Sometimes I think the opposition think we are closer than our own fans tbh.

Was an absolute disgrace- he was as arrogant and sooky as it gets- full of excuses that he wouldn’t elaborate on

The Geelong board is delicious reading.

Some serious satisfaction watching the Cats get buried today.

Raynor’s bone crunching tackle on Bazlenka also a highlight for me. I despise him with a passion as I do many of the Geelong players.

Brisbane is an insanely good team. This is just the beginning for them.

Hope Mitchell and our coaches were taking notes today on what we have to do to close the gap and be able to beat the best.

But for now I will continue to revel in the Cats loss.

 

[MasterSamurai]

Someone should have asked Scott " how's tb's finger?" They had hardly any long term injuries to deal with or a fixture that trouble them yet lions had half a dozen injuries, hardest fixture, best frwd retiring and plenty of players in for surgery in the next week or two.
Ohh, and baily smith getting schooled by zorko was a thing of beauty to watch .

I love how they keep using the term nepobabies

Sam's already on top of it. His presser was exactly about us improving or we won't even make the 8!

 

[1989]

Only slight negative is the margin should have been ten goals plus, but I'll take 47!

Brisbane have done so well to replace the 91 goals kicked between Hipwood and Daniher last year, with Lohman struggling with injury and form also.

Largely done by a second year key forward and Zac Bailey upping his output from last season.

Yep, need midfielders who can kick goals and half frwds who can get a bit of the ball but be genuine threat around goals.
That comes from a deep midfield and a running mid sized , ground ball bulls that play high half back.
We have 4 defenders that are great in the air but not enough cover when the ball hits the ground in D50!
We got smacked at D50 stopagges all year, not enough ground ball to release runners to spread

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

The best part was not having to watch that head ducking cheat Selwood hand them the cup.
Absolutely glorious

Selwood is ok these days, at least he wasnt in full Geelong regalia like Mooney on Fox footy talking like a nuffie supporter. Go and miss from 5m out again champ.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Isnt this the same bloke who was preaching to everyone about not needing to do goal celebrations ??!!

View attachment 2439717

Absolutely, that's why they should have shown Lohmann's pisser of a celebration and than Holmes looking non plussed at him while 8 goals down. You haven't achieved anything yet mate your in no position to lecture any other club how they go about it. Flog got what he deserved today even by his own supporters.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

The geelong board is very entertaining

Upset that Brisbane are the afl’s love child

Eating their own

All the “adversity” they had this year

Brilliant

Adversity that they have swept under the rug what do they want sympathy? Laughable cry me a river stuff. Keeping though shall not be named at the club knowing what they know but it's everybody else's fault or the circumstances.

 

[gianytee]

You look through both teams and Geelong lack serious game breakers… if it’s not Cameron or danger they lack match winners… getting this far was amazing coaching from Scott on the other hand lions have guys like Ashcroft, Clug, Neale, Rayner, Zorko, Andrews and Bailey who are genuine game breakers.

Brissy have a lot of talent that I can see getting poached very soon Starcevich and Ah Chee are very good players who look like they’ll leave but can see Bailey & Wilmot getting big offers and getting poached too

Big reliance on Cameron, Danger, Blicavs & Stewart still.

Dempsey, Holmes & Smith very good but the rest are mostly role players.

 

[bigmaxi]

Watching the replay you can hear the slow disbelief building in the commentary. This was not going according to their plan. When Neale kicked that goal, icing on the cake. They are the experts hahahahahaha.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Nice of him to claim that Brisbane and Hawthorn were the form teams of the competition. Sometimes I think the opposition think we are closer than our own fans tbh.

Think he at least realised they needed Danger going beserk for them to win last week. There not that much better than us at all and I'm convinced if we had Day, Morrison, Dear and McGuiness we win that game.

One of them had the temerity to complain about Father & Son!!

 

[Paul Kersey]

Anyone done a welfare check on beta man Whateley?

 

[SSSSSS]

Is anyone else


I love how they keep using the term nepobabies

Yeh it's laughably ironic given they're one of the most KOTD clubs in the comp.

Pork barrelled state funded stadium.
KOTD with a plethora of HOF worthy F&S players.
Piss easy fixtures every season.
$1 pubs and prime development land handed out on the cheap.

 

[PenAndPaper]

Can't make this shit up with Scott and his "I'm not making excuses but..."

• Sub rule cost them despite Brisbane actually copping an injury to Starcevich after they made a sub and not before like Geelong.
• "10 -12 things going wrong for us".
• The super defensive body language throughout.
• Gives small statements saying Brisbane are good sprinkled between the self loathing.
• Ends the presser abruptly.

Poor Whateley might have resorted to a shandi to drown his sorrows.

How was snoop?

Was in tears when he walked out but by the time he made it to the stage I was over it. I know AC/DC and Metallica would never happen but tbh they’re probably the perfect crowd rev up bands for AFL/NRL/NFL.
