"If you think that our 23 we pick in any given week is a referendum on who we think our best 23 players are, you're not reading the way we think about things."

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

From Chris Scott …

"If you think that our 23 we pick in any given week is a referendum on who we think our best 23 players are, you're not reading the way we think about things."

Has Chris Scott not heard of selection integrity?

Has Chris Scott not heard of selection integrity?

Well not in the way we know it

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

From Chris Scott …

"If you think that our 23 we pick in any given week is a referendum on who we think our best 23 players are, you're not reading the way we think about things."

He is easily the best current coach who manages his squad, keeping players fresh. Will even manage Dangerfield, Cameron & Stewart if needed. It's a long season & need depth to be successful.

Well obviously. Referendums are for one yes/no decision so that's not at all how a referendum works.

You might want to do some research on that. More than 1 question can be asked.

Ohhh goody Hawthorn and Geelong

Like watching Pittspuke v Ratbirds

Cmon you know we need non-statistical guys mixed in

 

[bigman]

Amazing that Geelong are the more likeable team.

 

[AmericanCrow]

Amazing that Geelong are the more likeable team.

just hoping for scoreless tie

 

[1970crow]

Hawks 2 debutants, Mitchell is clueless.

 

[AmericanCrow]

Oops

 

[AmericanCrow]

I see Scott has Barry Gibbs hair stylist now

 

[Samcro24]

It’s such a boneheaded philosophy.

You’re never going to have the best 23 available week in week out.

So then what happens when you need to play some depth?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Hawks 2 debutants, Mitchell is clueless.

Should have played injured or underdone players instead for their experience in a big game...

 

[Drummond]

Can umpires just stay the heck out of a game of football? Seriously. Ruin every game.

Comparison of the first 5 games day breaks, of Geelong and Adelaide.

Geelong
OR - Friday
R1 - Saturday (8 day break)
R2 - Bye
R3 - Thursday (12 day break)
R4 - Monday (10 day break)
R5 - Sunday (6 day break)

Adelaide
R1 - Saturday
R2 - Friday (6 day break)
R3 - Thursday (6 day break)
R4 - Friday (8 day break)
R5 - Thursday (6 day break)

*noting that we played them on a 6 day break vs their 12 day break, away from home)

... in a final & they have hardly played all year.

Opening Round has created an inequitable start to the AFL season.

 

[skam85]

Lukewarm take: Geelong vs Hawthorn Easter Monday is a better footballing tradition than ANZAC Day

is tearing Geelong a new one

He's probably the best player we've ever let leave the club based on the amount of high quality games we missed out on

From Chris Scott …

Idiots. They'll have none of the sustained success that picking the same 23 every week has brought our club.

Nah. Danger was the best player in the league for a year or two, and won a Brownlow.
