Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
The trend of this game rings a bell with me. Dockers unable to deliver the knock-out blow and reverting to desperate defence.
I actually hope they get up, but not for Ross's sake.

This is Freo just after half time - we are all speculating from here.

They can't score. When their superstar can't dominate, they're impotent offensively.bigcarl wrote:The trend of this game rings a bell with me. Dockers unable to deliver the knock-out blow and reverting to desperate defence.

Very, very familiar.

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
That's true this year. And I think that's why they're no longer a genuine flag threat.
But since their 3 goal burst in the first 10 minutes, after dominating clearances, they've only kicked 5 goals! That's textbook Ross Lyon.

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
I don't think Lyon is a dud.
I just don't think his football philosophy/game plan works.

Good to see Dockers out!

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
Thought it was weird that he brought zac Clarke in, not enough runners, IMO
Thats Mr. Smartarse to you

The way he reacted to the Zac Clarke 50 would suggest that you wont see Clarke in a Freo jumper again.
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
I sit back tonight, completely pleased that Lyon moved on.
It means Freo can't win a flag, and it vindicates our club's decision to pressure him in regards to his game plan.

I took the 250-1 for the flag so I could lay it off. They were morals to make the 8, so getting 250-1 in an 8 horse race is good value!
As for this week, they absolutely should have won! If their coach had a plan b in relation to scoring, they would have!

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
We've just seen RL at his stubborn best the same shite which cost us games.
He refused to make the move with Silvagni on Walker, but then again he wouldn't have wanted to expose Dawson especially one on one with Walker!!!!
Also question the inclusion of Zac Clarke, WTF, it's a questin we'll never know the answer to because RL never justifies his mistakes!!!!

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
Look at the hate for Ross. Absolute laughing at all these posters. Ross is evil, cant coach, his gameplan is crap. Hence his record, hence Freo making the semi finals. Abosulute Nimbats.

That's not true. Contract offer did not change in the last fotrnight prior to him boarding the plane.joffaboy wrote:He was fully expecting to be coaching the STKFC up until about 12 hours before he jumped. Had actually agreed to terms, but suddenly the terms agreed to where somehow different.

Def was JB...
Says the info was passed onto him by a forumite in the know IIRC but as was told to him in confidence, won't reveal the source.
Respectable enough IMO

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
This could be very well true and I have heard the same thing but RL and mates would say that to put him in a good light. Unless you talk to everyone involved it's impossible to know what exactly transpired and that's not going to happen.

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
Never before have I ever backed the Crows in a game, but I did last night and the sole reason was the Dockers coach.
No loyalty to the St Kilda Football Club and in 2012 and beyond none given back.

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach
