AFL: Essendon coach Brad Scott fronts the media after their Round 19 loss to Adelaide Crows.
Doubts are once again lingering over Essendon after it squandered a golden opportunity to recalibrate its finals charge .
“We’ll celebrate Adelaide for the moment, but obviously there’s going to be a hell of a lot of question marks, because those dark clouds are starting to hover over Windy Hill once again. If GWS beats Gold Coast, Port Adelaide topples Richmond and Melbourne upsets Fremantle, the Bombers will find themselves in ninth spot on the ladder heading into Round 20.“Emotions are almost irrelevant — it’s what you do with the emotions and channel it into action, which is what we need to do,” a disappointed Scott told reporters after the game.
Instead of any strategic shortcomings, Essendon’s coach rued his side’s inability to execute in the game’s crucial moments. “We did a lot right tonight, but we’re not where we want to be because we’re not executing for 125 minutes — we’re doing it in patches. That’s why we are where we are.
