Please don't diverge to this one, you'll have the constabulary on our backs in no time flat.
Would be funny though.

Is it too much to ask for one thread without the “i hate chris scott and its all i think about 24-7” brigade ruining it? We are stuck with him for at least a few more years so just suck it up. Constant whining about him isn’t going to change that.
Geelong are traditionally not coach sackers anyway. But there's a first for everything...Bit different for us. Cause we're apparently hard up for cash we can't afford to pay out his contract.
Also we're not a club like Melbourne where the AFL would step in and pay it for us.
He's probably not going to leave cause of his bar tab and needs the money.
He (and this thread) are here for the duration.
No we certainly aren't. Can't ever see us doing it to CS either.Geelong are traditionally not coach sackers anyway. But there's a first for everything...
I could see him falling on his sword before the contract is up, if things went really badly.No we certainly aren't. Can't ever see us doing it to CS either.
They'll figure it out eventually.

Yeah, I’d be worried if he wasn’t taking a break. Regardless of your views on his abilities, he is in a very public and undoubtedly stressful role. A decent break is important. Some high pressure jobs force long term breaks on their execs (eg 6 weeks) every 3 to 4 years. He will be good for the break.

Nah, it's pathetic. He should be taking his leave in the off season like every other coach does.
We're currently running match simulation sessions 3 times a week and our head coach isn't there. It's an absolute joke!
That's what the off season is for...
The whole group has already returned mate and so should he. He's the head coach for crying out loud!
I saw Collingwood on the news the other day, Buckley managed to be back at Collingwood on time ... and he was jumping out of his skin to take on 2019.
Some Clubs run better programs than others I guess
Some clubs are more professional than others too I guess
Well it should stay in this thread and not ruin every other thread with that same old shite.Some find that part therapeutic (I'm not knocking it either) so you may as well bite back or suck it up.
Last time Geelong sacked an in contract head coach?

We pushed Ayres out the back door.
Lol, he'll have had more than 4 weeks leave this year mate...
Buckley is already back at Collingwood and their season lasted longer than ours too. How about the premiership coach Adam Simpson... Is he still on leave?
Head coaches can delegate without not being there at all. It's piss poor and sends a terrible message through the rest of the football department. Wake up to yourself!
Confirmation bias kicking in...Bucks is taking 3 months off in Italy. Its a new deal so he’s delegating and de stressing. What are you going on about Stan.

Was he actually sacked though, or contract not renewed?
Love the line: Obviously, I didn't lose any sleep over that one.Ayres was still under contract at Geelong when he left to join Adelaide, need to remember that this happened not longer after Cook had come to Geelong - I've read that Adelaide had spoken with Ayres to gauge his interest, Ayres then spoke with Geelong to request a contract extension because Adelaide had spoken with him about the head coaching role there and Geelong's response was basically "good luck in Adelaide".
So it seems to be agreement between the two parties to break the contract. I can't copy the line, but it is briefly mentioned on the following page extract from Scarlett's book

I honestly think the 6-6-6 is not going to have that much of an effect because it's limited to centre bounces, of which there are 20-30 a game, out of about 80-90 stoppages? Once the ball is bounced, then I think you'll see the traditional tactics start to come back.

A longer contract with an established Adelaide team. Not bad.He got what he deserved.
