GEELONG CEO Steve Hocking said the club is working on a few \u201cfinal things\u201d before officially announcing Chris Scott\u2019s contract extension.<\/p>\n

The Cats senior coach is currently out of contract at the end of the 2022 season, with reports late in 2021 indicating he was on the cusp of penning a two-year contract extension.<\/p>\n

Hocking said there was \u201cnothing untoward\u201d around the delay in announcing his extension, insisting the club was still working through the intricate details of the deal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s an agreement in place between Chris and our club,\u201d he said on SEN\u2019s Dwayne\u2019s World<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m on record in saying that prior to Christmas, people want to potentially see a signature, but these things take a bit longer. There\u2019s nothing untoward, we\u2019re just working on a couple of final things.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s committed here and committed to Geelong, we have clearly made change around Chris [in the off-season].<\/p>\n

\u201cChange hasn\u2019t just happened in the AFL program but with the women\u2019s program as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scott has been at the helm at Geelong since 2011, winning the premiership in his debut year.<\/p>\n
