Geelong just let Toby Greene equal the GWS 2019 Grand Final score.

 

[Woody Woodman]

Chris Scott looks like he doesn’t want to be there

It's Brad, they swapped at halftime.

 

[Woody Woodman]

Loving the Chris Scott footage tonight.

Hopefully the players present him a highlight reel on Monday.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

17. 3 lol

 

[Light_Soda]

Ehh the boys on the panel could be a little more spread apart...

 

[Chinacats]

the Joel dive over the line, he was outraged to go unrewarded!!

Inside 50 is basically a goal for GWS, what is up with the cat defence?

Yeah conceded too many soft goals through ball watching. Got cut Up bad in back 50.

no obvious changes in personnel down there?
GWS FWDs are good, but not that good, maybe Geelong trying different systems.

 

[Orange Agent]

Chris Scott blaming the virus. LOL.

 

[PetterdHoisted]

whaaaaaat is thisssssss
Deflector shields up?!

Classic C Scott, though to be fair travelling will be a headf**k this season.

 

[FairKouta]

Perryman can play

Cats zone off too much. Green got a few out the back goals because Geelong defenders were ball watching. They just needed to pay more attention. Won’t be any changes I wouldn’t of thought. Kolo injured, Bews doubt it.

Didn’t watch the whole game but actually didn’t mind us tonight from what I did see. Giants kicked like a dream. We won areas of the game I thought we’d lose, lost the key area of the game that I thought we’d win. Thought it would be an avalanche into our defensive 50 and that we would have to hang on and just take our chances. Almost the opposite.

His presser was absolutely 1st class.

Im not not normally his biggest fan but I am now.

Magnanimous. Intelligent.

Well bloody said Chris Scott. Salute you.

Kelly is going to be a massive loss - and it showed.

I agree, he was good. Seemed to be talking about the AFL's and the government's response to the current situation at the same time.
Basically saying these are extraordinary times and people need to listen to those in authority and "fall into line" (his words).
I think I agree with him.
As for the game, a road trip to Giants Stadium is as tough as it gets these last few years, and besides, anytime a Top 4 team is
kicking for goal at 85% (17.3 last night) you aren't going to beat them.

really?
I thought it was straight up weird- just who on Earth was he targeting with his message of 'stop complaining and do what you are told'. The whole AFL has worked together very well, the club members hugely supportive, MCC hugely supportive, considering the situation.

Unless he has got some massive friction from within Geelong that noone else has seen, he seems to like creating bogey men to shoot them down.

Reminds when he was going on about 'everyone's saying Richmond are unbeatable' when absolutely nobody was.
Stuff is in his head.

EDIT: Caro just saying of Offsiders that the players and maybe AFLPA have been having a major whinge.
So maybe Scott was have a crack at the players

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Chris Scott blaming the virus. LOL.

Chris Scott IS a virus.

 

[JackFlash]

Geelong have problems all over the place, the most glaring being, they have a very ordinary list of players. The Giants were have a training run while the Cats didn't want to be there. I'd say it will be a very long season, but i reckon this nonsense will all be over by Anzac Day!
