@SENBreakfast @kanecornes @davidking34 @storm @HawthornFC @Sammy__Edmund In response to @kanecornes saying Chris Scott is 15% better than the next best coach.
We all know where he got the extra coaching skill from!! From Brad, because he’s at least 15% worse than the other coaches in the league.

@kanecornes @davidking34 @1116sen Just like GWS and their jibe at Essendon on their Banner, Tony is desperate for some relevance!!

@TonyShaw22 @1116sen @tommorris32 @SENBreakfast @kanecornes @davidking34 Out of the 6 names @davidking34 & @kanecornes mentioned, it was 3 & 3!!
Kelly, Rahilly & Grigg and 2 experienced PREMIERSHIP coaches (Longmire twice & Simpson).
So spare us the sensationalist outrage Tony because no coaching appointment assures success whichever way you go!! ☄️☄️

@davidking34 @FOXFOOTY @kayosports Love your work, but can you stop with the sensitive posts @davidking34??
We don’t really want to have to continue verifying for basic photos.

@Tommy_Wolfe7 @Robert_Tinney I’m not deliberately being argumentative Tommy, I love your work. I’m just a frustrated Bombers fan who fears that with the wrong coach at the helm, teaching and developing this crop of young blokes, that they will become the Francis, Cox, Perkins & Hobbs of years gone by.

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@DrewPavlou Forget that guy Drew.
His bio says he’s “exposing the dodginess of property, NDIS, politics and international education” and his @ is LITERALLY ‘PotStirrer’!!
You and Pete are doing great work and people in the minor leagues of your sphere will always hate those at the top.

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@Tommy_Wolfe7 @Robert_Tinney My point being that I rate B.Scott as an administrator helping to raise our club to industry standard, as you’ve put it.
I just don’t see him being the right fit as coach for the talent already there and what’s coming through.
Just my opinion 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@Tommy_Wolfe7 @Robert_Tinney Riewoldt, Edwards, Cotchin & Rance were there before Dimma and Martin, Astbury & Grimes arrived the same offseason.
Similarly, the Dons had McGrath, Parish, Francis, Hurley, Wright, Heppell, Stringer, Cox, Perkins & Reid (all top 10 picks), but have still gone backwards.

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@Tommy_Wolfe7 @Robert_Tinney Great article BTW, but Richmond had a great coach in Hardwick embedded from 2010
With his year on year wins being 6,8,10,15,12,15,8 before the ‘imminent juggernaut’ clicked
Scott has gone backwards with 11,11,6 and likely less in 2026 while turning over similar amounts of players

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@Tommy_Wolfe7 Thanks Tommy.
Have any of these players elevated themselves into the genuine top 3-5 draft range already?
Bombers fan, so attention is on the next draft crop already 😞

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@DonCaldwelll I’ll be sitting in 2E with @davidking34 & @kanecornes and avoid the ‘Safe Space’ of 4C with the soup reheaters!! ☄️☄️☄️

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@PrinceISname I’m more optimistic about what The Devils wil be able to put out there in 2028

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@davidking34 would have got this one!! #OnThePiss?? 🤔😜
#LongtimeBaller ☄️☄️☄️

[Nicko @ForrestsMind]

@BradKlibansky The issue is that our top end experienced talent don’t work hard & contribute the way theirs does.
Bont, Dale, Naughton, Lobb, English, Kennedy & Williams against Merrett, McGrath, Langford, McKay, Wright, Parish & Duursma. With the additional 3 being Perkins, Gresham & Guelfi 🤷🏻‍♂️

@davidking34 @kanecornes Can’t wait for 6:01 Monday!!
