I went there for Christmas shopping after they redid the bit with the cinema H&M etc I got such a stimulus overload that I felt completely disoriented and nearly walked into several people.

That place is like Mordor for me.

Hehe my wife feels the same, that's probably part of the attraction for me tbh.

No excuses but flummoxed Scott still wonders why prelim went ahead

Chris Scott chats with Damien Barrett about last year's preliminary final, Joel Selwood's future, and the Cats' new game plan

Old Chris 'no excuses' Scott

 

[netslave]

It's the sook you have when you're not having a sook.
His list gets older and slower every year yet he still persists.

Is this guy delusional or what:

• The build-up to the 2022 season reminded him of the feelings he had upon entering the coaching landscape in 2011, a season in which Geelong secured a third flag in five seasons;
• Joel Selwood would be captain for an 11th consecutive season and would be used differently on-field;
• The Cats had been reinvigorated by off-field personnel changes and indicated his club would embrace a different game plan to the precise and calculated ball movement ones of recent years; and
• Declared the Cats could win the 2022 premiership.

I don’t think stage fright is a symptom of covid, particularly when they’ve suffered from it every September since 2012.

They got spanked against Port a couple of weeks before. It's just the reality that there are younger, faster and better sides than the Cats, I expect other sides to overtake them this season too.

The real issue is that they lack a Dusty, or a Dusty stopper. Give them either and they win at least two flags between 2016 and 2020. Too late for them now because we’ve gone way past them and the rest of the comp but they were right in the thick of it in the preceding years

 

[dees arent rabble]

As a coach I wouldn't do it with the players only because I don't drink or gamble.
But I could not careless if another coach does.
Also as a parent I wouldn't care if one of the players was my son ((sorry child) are we aloud to say son anymore)) I would trust I've brought him up to make the right choices.
Pissy whiners

They should've won in 2020, it was right there for the taking, and then Dusty said no. Just can't see their old legs getting it done, will probably still finish top 4 mind you.

I spent early childhood in Canberra before moving to Glen Waverley in the mid 90s. I remember we had people visit from Canberra who thought the Glen was big. I remember thinking if they think the Glen is big then what would they think of chadstone. I was only nine I think I said something like you think the Glen is big you should see chadstone it's like spread arms make explosion sound

Just remember kids we're in the itchy lot.

They have a Dusty type in Dangerfield, and they didn't use him well in 2020 grand final. They just haven't been good enough, Scott has done well to get those teams in good positions. Their style works well at their shitbox stadium but it gets exposed by good teams at properly sized grounds. Even get exposed at Marvel. West Coast had similar problems from 2011 to 2017, in 2015 smashed hawthorn in the qualifying final before getting smashed in the gf. Once optus was ready in 2018 they pinched a flag.

Danger was the best player in the league in 2016 and very close to Dusty in 2017. They threw away their biggest chance when they let Sydney kick 7 goals in the first quarter of the 2017 prelim.

When it comes to finals they just aren’t on the same level. I love Dangerfield but he’s shown time and time again that he just doesn’t bring under that kind of pressure to win games. Just wins the ball and boats it forward, doesn’t kick clutch finals goals, can’t hit targets in the same way.

Agreed. He lacks the finesse that Dusty has. Can win a big clearance but too often blasts it to no one in particular.

It's not s fitness issue. Dangerfield would be elite in terms of his fitness and getting his body up each week.

The issue is Dangerfield just simply doesn't turn up for big games and that's been proven over the journey.

It's a mental thing.

Finesse, as in the clean skills. No doubt he's physically in good shape but isn't as clean (perhaps the mental part is there too - lacking composure/confidence?).

Really disappointed the club (or AFL) didnt put out any behind the scenes stuff with the grand final. I remember them doing it for the WCE vs COL granny and it was fantastic. Would have loved to have seen the coaches speaking with the players and discussing tactics at different stages during the game and the build up.

The draft vids we put out are great, wish we did something similar for the biggest moment in the clubs recent history, regardless of if we had won or lost I would have enjoyed it.

Who's to say they're not going to?

It took 20+ years for The Last Dance to come out. Milk it for all it's worth.
