chin up bro. easy mistake to make

i wouldn't've made it though.

Jono · 16-05-2012, 12:54 AM

wac.

Honestly Kreuzer still scored really well, and I figured he'd do better against a non-McEvoy St Kilda then Giles would against GWS with Zac Smith, but Giles just ripped it up forward in the last quarter which I did not expect to happen.

Will haunt me for the rest of my life though. Brutal.

ps but you've tipped north and brisbane

Jono · 16-05-2012, 10:20 PM

Brad Scott's interview on On The Couch on Tuesday night was amazing. Just wow.

I love Hardwick for Richmond, but Brad Scott is my "favourite" coach in the AFL. At least to listen to speak.

Spikey · 16-05-2012, 11:51 PM

he's one if my favourite coaches too

because he's crap and coaches north

Jono · 16-05-2012, 11:58 PM

Well you guys do have a good head coach in Bomber Thompson, so its fair enough that you don't rate Scott in comparison.

But yeah Scott's gameplan is a bit out of date. handball,handball, handball is done. Still, it looks like he's doing a Knights (failing, but leaving the club in a decent enough state for someone else to come in and get to the top) which is much better than doing a Bailey (failing and leaving the club in a horrible state)

Spikey · 17-05-2012, 12:46 AM

not that I want Scott to fail, because as you say he seems a good guy and all, but he needs to change the gameplan, a bit anyway

Nah, it is moving back that way a bit; you have to look at when you handball. With the crunch of numbers, if you get the ball into midfield, creating some handball gives the team time to roll back into the forward line with numbers, rather than kicking to a 2 or 3 on 1, like what Fremantle finds itself looking at all the time under Lyon.

You just don't want to be flicking the ball around in the back line too much.
