Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2024, Part I

[Gunf]

I think the Suns have one of the best lists going around

Talent wise maybe but making use of those talents?? they constantly underperform... Now if that is purely on the players or the coaching group we will never know but the fact this trend has been happening through multiple coaches and is still happening tell me the players just aren't making use of the talents they possess.

Also i think Hardwick is overrated as a coach.

 

[cats_09]

Full support for this action

 

[Strange Cat]

Full support for this action

Needs to be more accountability and consequences with social media in general I’m glad they could take action on this incident

Cummings and Gossage’s rate every current AFL coach’s tenure out of 10

Ranking the coaches.

www.sen.com.au

Chris Scott (Geelong)​

Cummings: 8.5

Gossage: 9

“Two flags, 70 per cent winning record, he’s a star.”





Okay cool. Very close to a 10/10 tenure.

Michael Voss (Carlton)​

Cummings: 8.5

“Picked up rabble and weathered a horrible storm last year when they (critics) were all going berserk again.”

Gossage: 8

“Outstanding. They’re the real deal.”

In the 8 all 2022 only to lose a finals place with a minute to go in the season.
Make a prelim in 2023.

Scotty Cummings struggling with indigestion thinking of that rating.

Vossy has a higher combined rating that Longmire (1 flag 4 GFs). Fagan (1GF). Goodwin (1 flag). Beveridge (1 flag). Simpson (1 flag).

It don't add up son...

Yeah but the question is talent not application so my opinion stands

**** you Jon Ralph

Isaac Heeney has been suspended.
**** you Jon Ralph

He will go to the tribunal and likely get off. This way the AFL can pretend they aren't biased.

Rankin just copped a lazy 4 weeks for a "head clash" bump.

We play the Crows in 4 games.

I guess if the 4 weeks sticks... It's handy.

 

[Falconx]

ACL for Lewis


So many ACL injuries this year and yet we are one of the fortunate ones who have avoided it.

I know Morrison had 2 ACL injuries in our AFLW team, but outside of that I can't think of any within the last 5 years.

Maybe Narkle back in 2017 was the last one?

I just saw the replay of this. Surely gets at least 3 weeks - that's what Danger got back in 2021 bumping a Crows player and getting the head, and that was much more "in the play" than this.

We used up our Quota solely on Menzel. He had an absolutely wretched run and looked to be a star.

Based on the grid matrix its 3+ weeks. With it being far away from the ball it makes it 10 times worse. 4 weeks is fair.

For those who haven't seen the Rankine bump, here it is including a wide angle view which I haven't seen before this clip

That's dire. Did he put mayo on That? Looks forceful though.

Just lit a candle for Heeney to appeal

Following the bump, both players were taken to their respective benches for assessment and while Rankine played on, Starcevich was subbed out with concussion - so don't think there's any mayo on that

And here's a closer view of the Heeney back hander

He had McCrae higher than Scott. No disrespect to McCrae he’s been awesome in his 2.5 years at the Pies but Chris Scott’s consistency over 14 years makes him objectively the best coach in the AFL with Longmire second. Clarkson and Hardwick are obviously excellent coaches but both couldn’t keep their teams contending and abandoned ship.

 

[Gunf]

4 weeks is the minimum Rankine deserves

Lined up a bloke who wasn't looking at him or aware the hit was coming so couldn't brace and knocked him out.
