I don\u2019t think we should. I think we should just wait to see what the diagnosis is,\u201d Scott told journalists.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were in control of the game for the majority really, and it just started to tell towards the end. But (losing three players) was obviously a challenging situation. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t think it was insurmountable, but we just weren\u2019t quite good enough in the end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>GWS stun Cats to continue hot streak | 01:45<\/p>\n<p>SUNS YOUNG GUN EDGES CLOSER TO DEAL<\/p>\n<p>Gold Coast key forward Jed Walter is reportedly \u201cpoised\u201d to sign a new three-year deal to stay put at Carrara until the end of 2029.<\/p>\n<p>AFL Media reported the update on Sunday morning, as the out-of-contract 21-year-old continues to be at the centre of trade speculation.<\/p>\n<p>Walter has had interest from the likes of Essendon, Collingwood, Geelong and Hawthorn across Victoria, having earlier been loosely linked to West Coast.<\/p>\n<p>The tall\u2019s expected move to stay put at the Suns will create even more fascinating around the future of fellow forward Ben King, who still remains unsigned as a restricted free agent, despite a two-year deal on the table.<\/p>\n<p>Essendon have reportedly offered Walter close to $6 million across five years, who kicked three goals as a rare shining light for the Suns in their horror 79-point loss to Adelaide on Saturday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An injured Geelong duo have uploaded a lighthearted photo to social media in the wake of their respective&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":794875,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,85,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-794874","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-sports","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/794874","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=794874"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/794874\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/794875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=794874"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=794874"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=794874"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
