Credit where credit is due. I'm on the sack Scott bandwagon, but he has 100% identified the issue here being centre bounce setup.
And I'm glad that he has acknowledged it and is willing to adapt to something that's clearly not working.
What I don't like about his analysis is that, rather than taking responsibility for our strategy at centre bounces - we saw when I went through some of them how there appears to be very clear instruction for how Brad expects our mids to position themselves at centre bounces - that Brad instead tends to subtly imply that he thinks it's the players' fault. "We're just not defending them well enough." Not, "our setup at centre bounces is exposing us to scores against us when we lose first possession, and is allowing the opposition to affect our disposal with pressure when we win first possession," but "we [i.e. the players] are at fault."
Perhaps I've underestimated how good his analytic football mind is. But I've also underestimated how bad his people management skills are. The video with Swallow where he puts it all back on the leadership group to build confidence in a fringe player, the video here where he rightly identifies what is losing us games but tends to subtly blame the players (who he has developed) for it...is not a good look and sure as hell isn't going to help with our intensity.
If this issue has been addressed and is able to be corrected this week, I'm tipping we'll push Port close.
Port by 8 points.
