Play Nice Bye bye Brad

[Mav]

That's the game Im talking about. Scott walked into the Hawks coaches box and asked to call it off.

Looking back, was this the start of the quitter mentality?

Nah. Just a glaring example.

As Ive said, I cant find a single game under Scott where we've trailed by 10+ points in the 2nd half and came back to win

 

[SweetLeftFoot]

His unwillingness to make proactive structural changes is shitting me immensely.

Given Sydney used to give up on evey pre-season game under Roos, yet win the flag, i think you are drawing a long, tired bow.

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

I reckon he is a one directional/dimensional coach I've said it before.

Will not take us to a premiership. But I have faith in our list. Team is good don't worry about that.

Want to define it any further? Trailing Richmond by 8 at 3 quater time last year doesn't qualify?

So what was?

 

[Zebrah]

So what was?

Round 2.

 

[DarwinRoo]

We were getting our arse kicked and we didn't want to risk an injury. It was a mutual decision to call it off.

What could we have gotten from an extra 20-30 minutes? Maybe an ACL injury.

 

[SweetLeftFoot]

You can't get away from the injuries this week. They were crucial.

 

[ozzyoslo]

And those that potted me are just blind. The guy has to f*** off now. If he can't fix easy fixes then he's useless. Enough is enough.

Youre blaming BS for todays loss??

Blame the players....after 1st qtr time we didnt attack the player with the ball, there was no pressure what so ever like last week after that qtr time break.........we have some very fragile players at present.

 

[ozzyoslo]

I
I think he makes a good point. The meat grinders looks like soggy fish n chips to often.

so what is it KT? brad or the players.....

His inability to make necessary alterations continues to frustrate.

Allowing Brisbane loose men in our defence in the last 10-15 minutes effectively took away any chance we had of winning the game.

 

[Only Forwards]

Calling for Brad Scott's head equates to the complete rejection of reality

 

[Mav]

so what is it KT? brad or the players.....

Brads inability to develop the players and to react when said players aren't playing to required levels. Buck stops at the top.

Ok lets go with what you want......who are your top candidates for the position??
Roos, Harvey, Thomas>>>>>>Neeld??

you share us your grand plan.

 

[D23D]

Seriously??

The answer is simple. Do u think we play better than our boys' actual ability?
Or about equal?
Or worse than the sum of the parts?

A team that more often than not displays better than the sum of their parts has a very good coach.
A team that achieves about their level has a good average coach.
Those that achieve less has a dud

Teffy

 

[ozzyoslo]

Teffy

you got me I no reply to that!!

 

[Johndory]

Scott's not hard enough on the players when they lose and full of praise when they win. Simple. You can see the players don't want to fight for their club when the going gets tough. That comes down to the coach..

 

[scooby1279]

It all comes back to when he continued to play players who were not performing and now it's too late into the season for brad to make a statement.

 

[Grogg]

I'm not sure what is being said to the boys after these losses, but it isn't working and the coach and his team need to start applying the message in a different manner, whatever that message may be.

We are at a critical time for us developmentally and if the current trends were to continue over the next 12 months then I'd be fairly dubious on this group getting another flag in the near future. The embarrassing loss in WA last year, the Hawthorn demolition, the multiple fade outs after dominating quality opposition....the trend is a pretty worrying sign and one that appears to continue.

I guess the big question is do we hurt enough as a club dishing this shit up?

The answer will be in our response, because there is one thing I am certain of.....we have the natural talent in place to get to the ultimate.

But have we got the ticker?

These are questions I'd like asked and preferably be asked in a very public manner.

You reading this Damo?

Over to you.

 

[Spitta09]

Scott has turned this football club into a souless bunch of front running squibs. I couldn't believe the amount of delusion on here after the richmond match about how good we are etc etc lol pull your head in people. Our gameplan is only good when we play at shitihad and everything goes our way. As soon as we get ahead and the opposition applies pressure and changes something we turn to water and scott has no answers. We have officially become the laughing stock of the league

 

[Ahern2Boof]

Look, I love Brad Scott's passion as a coach, but I just fail to see how and when he is going to instil a defensive side to our game. From his post-match presser after tonight's game, listen to this quote:

"We've got some things to work on, we've got some things we need to fix. We set the game up well, we weren't able to follow through. We'll go through that and find detail."

This was the fourth time (FOURTH) that we have led by over five goals, and lost the game. Geelong, Adelaide, Gold Coast, and now Brisbane. That quote is a little outdated, don't you think Brad?

 

[True North]

Get Bucks!!!!!!!!!!!
