Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
Brisbane coach Michael Voss will depart the Lions after being told on Tuesday that his contract would not be renewed at the end of 2013.
The Lions players were called to an unscheduled meeting at the club at 3.30pm Tuesday. Club bosses are understood to have informed their three-time premiership captain that he would be replaced.

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
Well Roos has obviously taken that job. Thought he was certain for Essendon.

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
The sense is that Paul Roos has done a Ross Lyon and taken up the offer and this has lead to Voss' sacking.

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
bit tough on Voss honestly yes in the start he made some major stuff ups trying to top up the list and in turn if smacked him in the chops but considering the era of dominance that the Brions had come off he basically took on a team in the same position that we are in , they are now just starting to see the rewards for that and he gets the chop ... pretty sad ... i reckon Voss will get a gig as an assistant in Victoria without to much trouble maybe one of the scott brothers will find a spot for him ...

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
I'm with you there. I've never understood the Roos worship in the footy world. When Sydney won the premiership, I heard it at the time that Lyon was the mastermind behind their success. He then came to the Saints and we saw it first hand.st_Trav_ofWA wrote:i dunno i just get the whole snake oil salesman feel about roos ... i think there are better coaches out there ... honestly with no basis or reasoning behind it i just feel Roo's is a bit fake .. but thats just my opinion
Lyon is an awesome tactician, where that leaves Roos I don't know.

Agree with some of this.st_Trav_ofWA wrote:i dunno i just get the whole snake oil salesman feel about roos ... i think there are better coaches out there ... honestly with no basis or reasoning behind it i just feel Roo's is a bit fake .. but thats just my opinion
He seems to be highly regarded in the footy world , but I reckon if he goes to Brisbane it will be a very interesting
Situation.
He's got the runs on the board as a premiership coach,so that's gotta count for something.
Never liked his opions on the saints I must admit.
Even their favourite son wasn't spared,that's footy I suppose.
100 goals in 14 games...Lockett is the key

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
Roos strikes me as an excellent player manager and motivator. Lyon doesn't seem to be that good at that - I think with us the motivation was done by Riewoldt, Hayes and the leadership group.Munga wrote:I'm with you there.

You need both sides of it. Neeld was apparently a very good tactician but a horrible manager.

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
Would like Stkfc to get Voss as midfield coach next year & hope they are on the phone to him now.
Young midfield Newnes Wright Ross Markworth & new draftees would develop far quicker under his charge .
Think he can help SW on the tactical side too .

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
Was trying to think why would Roos go to Brisbane.... forgot he played for the lions,ha stupid me.
Be interesting too see how he go's without Lyon, and having to earn the respect of the list. He had Sydney's being a recent retiree

The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
We can't afford to pay $450k for an assistant.
We are not one of those clubs with cash to throw around.
If we were to be fined $10 million clubs like Dogscray, North and us would become insolvent and would require major assistance.
Clubs like Pies, Essendon, Blues could absorb it.

wonder how this info sits with that suggestion
http://www.couriermail.com.au/sport/afl ... 6696604637The Lions were facing a player crisis with Billy Longer, Sam Docherty, Jared Polec, James Polkinghorne and Patrick Karnezis all expressing a desire to be traded. There had been strong murmurs that senior players such as Tom Rockliff had also become frustrated with Voss.

Re: Word is Michael Voss has been sacked
Probably wanted Roos for a while and will hire him so Melbourne cant. I now feel like Melbourne would be crazy not to at least interview Voss. If they dont and we could somehow snag him as senior assistant it would be fantastic

Mark Harvey must be feeling somewhat nervous. He keeps getting shafted by coaches that start with R- Ross and Roos.
