#lolNorf

[TigerForce]

Have heard from someone in footy circles that Scott will be coaching St Kilda next year.

Breaking news....just heard the 5 team superdeal:-

B Scott from lolnorf to Cartoon
Chuckles from Cartoon to the Bummers
Woosha from the Bummers to Freo
Wossy from Freo to the Swans
Longmire from the Swans to lolnorf

Why would anyone want him.
9 10 years its been seen only the very best last that long and get another gig.

Yeah but what stars did he have to work with?

These are the b&f winners in his time:

Goldstein (2)
Swallow (1.5)
Wells
Cunnington
Goldstein
Tarrant
B.Rawlings
Thompson (0.5)

Good players but not pin-ups.

Reckon he'd be suited to a team that's seen to be underperforming, such as Essendon.

They need someone like Franklin

One Scott Down
One to go....

**apparently he is in demand..afl site... give me a break

 

[MB78]

I know you are joking but Hardwick is not a fan of the Scott brothers

Why is that? I know Hardwick is a great judge.

 

[MB78]

I hope the AFL remember when Norf Sellthem are next asking for a handout that they terminated Brad Scott with a year left on his contract. So they spent money on coaches that they don’t have.

Perfectly suited to Essendrugs, they've got about as many stars as #lolNorf so once he learns the players names he could continue to roll along in mediocrity.

While he might not have had a very good list of players to work with for the decade, I just don't see Brad Scott as a coach who commands that much respect, either for his football knowledge or as a person.
Reckon he would be a disaster at Carlton ... so, hope he gets the gig.

 

[year of the tiger]

He started out with quite a young team and built it into the oldest-ever team in 2016. The writing was on the wall after they crashed from 9-0.

Year Lddr AvAge AgeRk AvGms
---------------------------
2010 9th 23.73 12th 69.6
2011 9th 24.27 10th 79.2
2012 8th 24.45 12th 82.1
2013 10th 24.83 11th 88.2
2014 4th 25.82 5th 109.6
2015 4th 26.74 2nd 128.3
2016 8th 27.63 1st 148.7
2017 15th 25.25 6th 90.9
2018 9th 25.65 5th 99.7
2019 17th 25.88 6th 104.7

You don't get to hang around for a rebuild unless you're successful like a Sheedy or Malthouse, so Scott performed a refurb. It failed.

He's still young by coaching standards (43). Reckon he'll get another gig, but not sure St.Kilda's a good fit.

Thanks - these facts go against the perception that he inherited a star team (Harvey, Goldstein etc) and didn’t get the most out of them.

He will be best known for getting the most out of an old Carlton bloke who won them an elimination final against us.

Scott managed 4 final series out of 10 years isn’t that crash hot and there is little developing youth now in that squad.
Hardwick has managed 5 final series out of 9 years including the glorious 2017 - it should be 6 out of 10 this year with a side bursting with young talent.

Hardwick, without the profile of Scott has been a much much better coach.

No doubt we're in a far better position than North and Hardwick's 55% winning record (v Scott's 50%) has been hard-earned via the most thorough of rebuilds.

Hardwick has been backed by excellent club administration and, lately, financial clout.

I'm in the minority but feel a bit sorry for clubs like North who know that, however well they play, they're not going to grow much. Exhibit A: their vain attempt to re-badge themselves as a "destination club".

Scott has given it his all with minimal resources. Doesn't mean he's overly likeable.

Surely they haven’t paid him out for 2020?

 

[year of the tiger]

True re Hardwick but it’s pretty hard to turn around such a large ship and 37 years of club eating history.

Norf - maybe 2 prelims was a good effort with what he had but he has proved he is not a development coach who has the patience to rebuild.

We might be the first team that gets to play them with a new coach.... ouch!

*if geelong 6-0 6-0 this finals series again, Brad might have to make a appointment for his brother too.

 

[graystar1]

Whoever replaces him it had not be Caracella, we need him.

 

[TigerForce]

Gil's website already shows Longmire.


Other candidates:
Adam Kingsley (Richmond)
Blake Caracella (Richmond) No thanks.
Ben Rutten (Essendon)
Jade Rawlings (Melbourne)
Justin Longmuir (Collingwood)

Craig Jennings (Melbourne)
Daniel Giansiracusa (Western Bulldogs)

I heard on the radio he is contracted for next year at around 800k. They said they would be working out the finer details but he would be gaining a majority of that money.

$800K per year ... WOW!
Wouldn't have thought Scott could command that sort of pay cheque.

 

[TigerForce]

Given that Brad Scott refused to answer Eddie's questions, I reckon the new Cartoon coach rumour will be building this week.

Hope it happens as it'll be interesting to see how lolnorf fans respond when they meet during the season.

That's a fair assessment.
