Confirmation...anywhere? Until I see him in a filth polo I will not believe it.

Maybe Harves was part of his plan in the first place.

Why would he have to start from scratch necessarily?

I like the idea mentioned elsewhere of freeing up Schieds in the mid field which, if he got his hands on it enough would provide excellent delivery into our forward line. Leave Milne in his position to guide the youngsters and kick goals. Siposs might be better on a flank as a lead up forward to get...

Damnit...they should have made the coaching announcement tomorrow then Gram would've been gawn!

Wish you well Tommy but puleez don't be another former Saint to win a premiership at another club!

Catching what you're throwing here.

My comment was an initial observation of Lyon from the get go and was hoping that he would loosen up a bit more and improve his demeanour but looking back I don't think he changed much at all really.

Please don't tell me you were impressed by his first presser?

First impression of Lyon?

A gumby bogan.

Last impression of Lyon...

A lying, gumby bogan.

Yep, by atleast 3 AFL clubs...hope one of them is St Kilda!

Would love to see him get traded so we could at least get some currency but I really don't think anyone wants him as the recruiters at other clubs have probably seen alot of his games to.

Setanta can kick better than Gram, has a massive tank and a really good contested mark. Would not be a bad trade?

If he wants to get out of SA then Port can have Gram, Raph and Gamble for him. Fixes our SC and we get a guy with pace, skills and can hit the side of a barn by foot for a change.

He is obviously very loyal and would naturally take it hard getting rejected (I even get upset when I don't get a job I never really wanted!) as that is the initial feeling that one has at this point...rejection. However I think he has it in his head that he wants to coach and probably has a dream t...

I know the other candidates have skills and experience but look at Harveys: - 3 years now as an assistant coach at 2 clubs (1 year as dev coach) - Worked with an elite midfield at Carlton - All of his coaching years so far have involved finals - Worked with (an apparent genius) Ross Lyon all this ye...

Are you serious? Regardless of colour, horizontal "hoops" vs vertical stripes is not seen as a clash in the AFLs infinite wisdom. However, I do think that our look in last years grand finals was el crappola but I am getting used to our administration having no balls with things like jumper...

Worst footy show of the lot, hosted by bogans, catered for bogans and obviously watched by a lot of bogans...otherwise t'would be long dead.

Nope, Allan Davis coached the last 4 games in '87. Is that when the Doc had his first stroke? Harvey debuted the next year, wore number 52 for 4 games before switching to 35 the next year. Incidently he received the number from David Grant who wasn't a bad backman and one of my favourite defenders e...

Yep, agreed. Hearsay, media whispers and even direct quotes from the board aren't holding much weight at the moment.

However I wanted to make sure I hadn't imagined it as for the life of me I can't remember where I read it.

I would also agree that it is a risk but in the event that the board could not land a big fish, Harves is just as much a risk as any of the other potentials and maybe less so considering he has the advantage of knowing the players inside out. Also a worry is that to quote lady muck "Wouldn't th...

Most feedback I seem to be reading is that he is not ready yet. I tend to agree with this sentiment but a harsh reality of football (coaching) is that you can't always wait until you are completely ready otherwise you might miss out. Add to that, Harvey is a Saints man through and through and in the...

Which type of traits in a coach would you prefer: 1. - Honesty - Integrity - Leadership - Professionalism - Development or 2. - Mercenary - Ruthlessness - Undermining - Arrogance - Blatant belief that you are always right Both types of traits have positives in terms of success in history but as a su...

Plugger are you in Disneyland? And do you ever venture outside.

How can you defend the undefendable? Pull your head in and stop criticising others on their legitimate opinions!
