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.

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).

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,    …..   joke

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.

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.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
