THE SW-AINTS

Post: # 556444Post desertsaint »

"SYDNEY SWANS’ coach Paul Roos says when Ross Lyon departed the Harbour City for his new post at the helm of the Saints, he took one vital piece of documentation with him – The Sydney Swans’ game plan book.

“I’ve never seen his game plan book but he’s got mine,â€

just because he has it doesn't mean he uses it. I'd take anyones play book if it gives you an advantage.

There's no doubt Ross Lyon is inspired by negative, defensive tactics.

Our playing group has been shaped on attacking, winning values.

We should be playing an attacking brand of football, but with a distinctly aggressive approach in our back half.

Instead, we have confused players, a game plan stuck in 2005 and a raft of individuals who seldom perform to their collective best.

It's a massive concern and the free run given to Ross Lyon - and forward coach John Barker - needs to cease.

We've got massive issues. The player-led tactical revolt that occured midway through last year may need to be revived.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

We definately need to be innovative over the next month or so. Riewoldt to a wing, Gram to HFF, Kosi to CHB are just a few ideas !!

Probably referring to when the players started doing what the coach wanted them to do on the field.

Yup.

We play to make the opponent score less then us, rather then for us to score more then them.

thats CRAP !!!
he was writen in our best 3 by the Media cause they are lazy and only look at the stats not the game its self
Gram may have got 20+ possessions and people will say thats a good game but its not a good game when he couldnt lay a tackle didnt apply any pressure on his man & shanked just about every kick . Gram is suposed to be a senior player that the rookies should look up to and base their efforts on ... i hope to god they dont !! i swear i lost count how many times i saw him point at his opponent instead of going to him he would point at him !! im sick of his constant kick and hope passes , his long kicks and rebound out of defence are ment to be his strong points but honestly how many of these long kicks hit a target ? and how often do his rebounds out of defence get turned over and come back in faster then they went out ? sure he got pleanty of possessions but he hardly had a good game ..theres more to footy then getting possessions :roll:
