You only have look at Mark Thompson and how close he was to getting the chop as not getting the best out of his list in 07 to shake your head...
In reality Frank Costa alone was the man to save his Cats destiny because it is very unlikely that a new coach would have got them their long overdue flag in 08..
Those 2 cases make a very interesting comparison to the deleima faced by the St.Kilda Football Club at the moment with the clubs list at a critical impasse....
The club gave Ross Lyon 3 years and in my opinion he should have every opportunity to mould the team over a decent period...
I haven't given up on the man ...lets see what happens for the rest of this year before we draw too many conclusions...
Ross was a very gutsy and skilful player ...
Lets give him a decent crack at it before we take the easy [and far too often in our history] route of sticking the boots in desperate search for the messiah
