On the assumption that Scott has (and does) show this type of bias, it is very disappointing.

Think whatever you want of how he presents publically, he is one of the most influential people on modern AFL through his tactical approach to coaching at AFL level. It tarnishes what should be a great reputation.

I think Oliver returning to form on Saturday will help Petracca.  He’s been struggling with 100% attention whilst Oliver’s been injured.  
 

My thinking exactly. WHen Oliver gets to his elite self, he will attract a tag, that will free up Petracca.

The one dis on Trac is his defensive game. He needs a more defensive presence, which can be then used to work the tag to our advantage. He needs to improve this.

Scott - nepotism at its most flagrant.

Scott is a tool. He lost but likely gave his players 5 vote and 4 vote outcomes.  Coaches votes are a joke. 

Salty Chris Scott is one of the main reasons I enjoy beating the Cats. 

He thinks his players were off but also thinks his players were the best on the ground. Make up your mind Chris! 

He takes losses worse than some Demonlanders and it's glorious to watch. 

(I know, I know, we don't know for sure how he voted. But I think it's a pretty safe bet).

 


They should just save time for the next one and give Max the votes now.

Max is streets ahead of any other ruckman.

On sports bet and tab. He is into 35 and 41. For the Brownlow.   Started out at 101.  
Hope he gets shorter,    â€¦..   joke

hope he has a couple of suns.

But how do you know who Scott voted for?  He could have given Lever five votes for all we know.

There is not a snowflakes chance in hell that Goodwin gave 5 votes for Holmes.

Scott is a great coach, was a better than average footballer, not a bad bloke in person.

...but the whining in his press conferences and disrespect to opponents is not doing him any favours.

Or flatulance!

I thought Holmes was best on. Lever was great but O.Henry did get away for 3 goals.

Holmes, Lever, May then

Goody

5 - Lever
4 - Pickett
3 - Holmes
2 - Guthrie
1 - Gawn

Scott
5 - Holmes
4 - Guthrie
3 - May
2 - Gawn
1 - Petty

 

There's a few other way to get the same outcome, which sees Goody give May 1 vote instead of Gawn and a bit of shuffling from Scott. But the bottom line is how Scott didn't find room on his votes for Hawkins, Cameron, Danger and Rohan. 

Well, Danger did not play so don't see how he could have given him a vote..  Ahhh sorry, you are correct... We are speaking about Scott ... that makes sense ( or no sense in his mind).


I've thought Scott was a bit of a you-know-what for a while, but the Pettiness to rate his players as bog in this game rather than just suck up the fact that he lost is pretty damning.

Who gave what to whoever is of course debatable.  But your reasoning seems ok.

only way for Holmes to get 8. Is to get a 5 and 3.

petts got 1 vote Max and May shuffled

3 and 0.    And 2 and 1 .    No other way.  That leaves Kossy 4 and 0

Lever 5 and 0

and Guthrie on the 4 and missing 2

What a lot of fun. 
it does highlight the difference in the coaches   That Lever  and Kossy were not considered a threat by one coach but we’re by the other. At least Guthrie and Holmes got votes from both. There is no guarantee that Scott gave his boys 4 and 5. 
 Go Dee’s. I do hope we have planned to come out hard against the blue baggers. 
 

their last minute win last year gave me the shirts.   Quiet all day then we panic and kick it to them twice in the last minute or so  and they think they were champions.

Right in front of me as well.

It beggars belief that Lever didn't get 10 votes imo. I thought he was clearly the best and most influential player on the ground on the night. I guess one of the reasons he was so influential was that Scott didn't rate his game as worth trying to curtail.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
