Re: Marcus Bontempelli left out of coaches’ award votes by North Melbourne KNOB Brad Scott
He's the most petulant person in the afl industry .
The continual shocked look at every umpiring decision is cringeworthy

If they had REALLY done their homework on Bont they would have known to get on with it. That stuff is usually like an aphrodisiac for competitive beasts like Marcus. I think BAD posted a picture of Bont laughing while Majak and his merry men tried to look tough. Was hilarious.
Port and North. Two teams with big chests and lofty ambitions of grandiose delusions. The score flattered them in the end. They have to knock that stuff off and change the way they play.

Looking at The Bont he seemed to be laughing continously at their faux hard men tactics. Looked like he was having a wow of a time.

The best was not taking a back step and the preparedness for others to fly the flag in a big way, Cordy in game 4 was dishing it out. This was to me a turning point for ours boys, last time the bullied a bunch of kids. This time a bunch kids gave back as good as they got, and with interest. As North refuse to change 'their way' nor rebuild, I look forward to smashing them for at least the next 20 games in a row.

I think this is the funniest thing I've read all year. Sensational dummy spit. And at a guess, Scott has probably broken some type of gentlemans agreement in regards to these votes. I wouldn't be surprised if the other coaches will act together to teach him a lesson (when it comes to voting) going forward.

We can only hope. Does Leigh Matthews do Twitter etc?

Now we can enjoy Bont getting in Firritos face over and over again.

How else can you really react to these guys who think they're tough cause they give a few jumper punches? Something I never really understood when I played footy myself (why you'd bother that is).

They are tough, really tough. I remember one day a few years back that our wirey forward was besieged by three of the faux tough men and they showed true courage.
Actually, now I think of it that wirey forward put one faux tough in a vicious headlock, and the eventual pass by of two reluctant players trying to help out, who with poo running down their legs did nothing. The three faux tough men were being easy beaten by one of ours. But faux tough is a kind of tough. Right? I can't remember who our forward was, it might have been Ayce Cordy or Cam Wight. All I know is since then they refuse to take on anyone their own size or strength.

Best handball I've every seen at his age. So enjoyable to watch this young athlete. Maybe not giving him votes is the equivalent of a stunned silence.
What was Firrito doing on the ground for anyway? With those big guns he should be able to stand up properly and go toe to toe with a 20 year old. One would hope.
Something a bit wrong with the current culture down there. I don't dislike North as much as some, but their antics are a bit comical.Swallows fake stutter over the ball, stalling play with Bont waiting for the ball behind him. Lindsay Thomas' and the reverse self-inflicted coat hanger. Scott Thompson and his jumper punches. It's unnecessary.
I can sort of understand why Scott gets flustered.
