Is that because Ross missed Fergus's best years?stkildathunda wrote:Jack WattsDr Spaceman wrote:Well I reckon he'll get a pretty good deal from us - and will stay.StNoodles wrote:Suggestion was definitely that he'll be offered a 5 year deal at Melbourne.
A few extra dollars aside, what would be the attraction of Melbourne to Ross?

at this point of the season I'm not about to let speculation about our coach take away the focus of winning the game this saturday evening. On the other hand, if he WANTED to go (and he has a right to do whats best for his family) then let him go. I seem to remember a speech that went along the lines of "if you don't want to stay and work hard..then go" As far as I'm concerned it apllies to EVERYONE at the club - players and coaches

Let's not panic on this and let's not follow the media hype!!
Ross is "contracted" for next year - a very important point.
The Club wants him.
Ross has indicated to several people that he wants to stay - I assume, it's unfinished business.
I believe that he has the confidence of the players.
The Saints and Ross are a good fit.
Why change teams - it's not for the money at his level.

hhmm.....geez.....in Ross's answer wouldve been great to hear:
"Look Im happy at St Kilda, been there 5 years and dont see a lot changing"....
Thats the answer Al Clarkson gave recently.
Ross's was along the lines of:
"changed management, decided to put it on hold and I dont postulate through the media..."
wouldve loved a tad more .....

I have no real concerns regarding his future at our club.

I reckon if Ross went to Melbourne, he'd be making exactly the same mistake Terry Wallace made when he left Footscray and went to Richmond. He had achieved success and respect at Bulldogs, yet walked out on them and went for the money and younger, more attractive looking list. In the end, it was an absolute disaster.
Ross and the saints are running and functioning together well, the relationship is working, so IMHO he'd be taking a huge risk if he left and it may backfire on him nastily.
I believe he'll stay.

If this is the article these rumors are about then there is not one mention of any contract offer in there. Media beat up yet again it looks like

Whats not to like about a younger list with more years in them to become a power house??hungry for a premiership wrote:I reckon if Ross went to Melbourne, he'd be making exactly the same mistake Terry Wallace made when he left Footscray and went to Richmond.

Are the Saints and Ross really functioning that well together????
Don't get me wrong they have been but how much more do they have with the list they have????

I mean he's just so over his own game that if journos were players we'd have seen this trumped up "expert" retired years ago.
What a nothing piece of hyperbole, I mean he leaves it till 2/3rds in to tell us "Lyon and saints will probably stay together ....but its not a lock".
Serial ship jumper is Mike - adored Ball lover (family connection) and if hes the example of "Go Dees"......I reckon Ross Lyon would be mad getting into bed with this rabble.

Sounds like a normal negotiation to me, just working out the minor details....St Kilda is willing to extend - with conditions. Lyon's management apparently is willing to recommit - with fewer conditions.
