Also port a few years ago under Hinkley. Worked early then got picked apart.
Still, the gist of what was said remains.
We are a stodgy unimaginative team with a defence orientated style that has failed to deliver when it counts.

Is there any way we could sneak a 19th defender on just to make sure we've got everything covered.
What we need is to hire a coach who was a forward. Scarlett, scott and enright in the one coaching group has made us too defensive.

If I see Blicavs playing anywhere other than FB next year I'm automatically cancelling my membership.
May as well do it now as scott will keep doing it. The club has not admitted it was a mistake so scott wont be reigned in.

Paul Chapman please, he would destroy anyone who even thought about slow-playing the ball
1. Scott to stop over coaching and just play smart attacking footy that goes forward at all costs (like tigs)
2. Play players in the positions that suit them
3. Midfielders to run both ways, don't care if you're Simpson or Dangerfield, you get dragged if you don't chase and defend
4. Practice smart knock ons, smart fast ball movement that goes forward and attacks
5. Push WC hard for top picks for Kelly
6. Clark in defence for run and carry and not too many slow players
7. GAJ & Rohan to play 15 games max each, to be timed for the back end of the year

Number 1 is the opposite of everything scott is about. If you want 1 then scott has to be sacked.
I want scott sacked.
That's clear. I think most Geelong fans do.
But we are ugly fans remember, we have no idea and are unable to exercise logical thought.. unlike Carter.
I'd go as far as adding Taylor to the 15 game group, and only if resting or managing others. Quite frankly I'm disappointed both he and GAJ are going around again. Both been great, both not any more.
Yes. Both venerable servants, but now clogging the list and slowing development of upcomers. Clarkson would have moved both of them on.
Another reactionary move which shows nothing has changed...forward vision clouded by the increasingly opaque ‘premiership window’

Play Danger 90% forward. In the last 4 years we've played 9 finals. In 7 of them our midfield has been completely smashed for at least a quarter giving the opposition way too many easy looks. The only final we've been dominant in midfield was the one time Dangerfield was played predominantly forward. It's also the one final Dangerfield has dominated. Surely it's time to learn that lesson.

Its all about the preseason, I think. And the style of play. Something the form of the players can grow into.

None of this mid season heavy training crap.

No way. He’s a s**t kick for goal, and too often spoils his own teammates.
Leave him in the middle where he plays best.
This also
Happy for him to play in the middle, but only if he sets up defensively at each bounce.

Sadly, not much will change because the board and the coaching group have all been patting each other on the back for making the prelim and really taking it up to Richmond for a half.
Some overhead marking skills wouldn't go astray also.

Would like to see us do something similar to 2011 and have a core group of 30-35 players who, depending on injuries, are rotated through the team and have rests during the season. That year not one player had played in every game, and I think we had only half a dozen or so who missed one, and another 6-8 who had missed 2 or 3 games through the season.
That way players would be fresh by the end of the season, and we'd also have a group of players we can rely on to fill in if necessary as they'd have done so during the season.
