I didn't 'hate' our whole season, I just knew it was a waste, as every season will be until Scott goes. You must understand all we are doing under Scott is winning enough to do nothing much but keep him in the job, and not planning for or executing any plan for our next flag in the process.
You really don't understand coaching post a great era, you can jump on here and say We will see no success until Scott goes, and the reality is you are more than likely right:
How did it got for Ayres post 97 and 98
How did it go for Pagan and Laidley post 96 and 98
How did it go for Sheedy and Knights post 2000
How did it go for Matthews and Voss post 01 to 03
The only one to break the mould in Recent times is Longmire and how many more flags does he have than Scott?
Is Scott the man for the future? Maybe or maybe not, but odds are against him as post premiership eras are the toughest to coach.
We are about to find out if Clarkson is any good at it.
You can say all you do want about Scott but a 70% win rate since 2011 in a post premiership era is unbelievable.
He has vertically turned over the list and still finished top 4.
What happens after 2017? I trust the board of the Geelong Football club to make the right call, but I am getting sick of people rubbishing Scott, love or hate him he has coached through a post premiership run and I don't think anyone could have done a better job.
We have a young list and and am excited about the next 5 years and if Scott is or is not the guy I cannot speak highly enough of his work for the club.
For the record I think we have a great 3 or 4 years ahead and it will correctly include the Chris Scott re-signing at some point.
I am backing him in, and as for any coach in the AFL backing against them would be the easy option.
