No way. Give RL the list with the injuries of 05-06 and see how he goes! Hard to imagine, but it would be even worse than he is doing now. Nothing to do with the GT v RL thing, I couldnt give a rats, its all history. I care about now, and it is deplorable what he is instilling into this club. Accoluntable football PFFFFF, it is NO good when you cant score.

Which of his points do you actually not agree with???
I think he illustrates the dire situation we are in with Lyon as coach and the sooner we git rid of him the better.
Remember how good we were to watch in 2004-06?? This list still has that potential. It is Lyon who is crippling us!!!
We need someone who will bleed for the cause...like most people on this forum do!!
now we are the hunted and have been shot down big time...
in comparison gts job is was easier than rl's...rl is trying to make us complete footballers capable of playing attacking and defensive footy...gt only had attack attack attack and when we were found out it got ugly
i know i would have preferred to have rl in the coaches box that prelim final against sydney...
If your going to err on one side of the argument, be a little less polished in your defending. Ill always back a team that can put a score on the board first, thats the name of the game. One must back themselves in and go for it. To have a defensive side up and going is of course a must, but how can anyone not see that RL is so horribly skewed towards the defending side of the game that it is jaw droppingly frightful? And totally incompetant. This is backed up by his inane comments along the lines of you only really need 10-12 goals scored in a game to win if you can stop the opposition scoring. I cant even imagine a more WRONG attitude if I tried to go into AFL football with. Just woeful.
All RL is doing is killing the instinct footballers have played with since 6 years of age, and killing the natural instinct to take a risk and try and go foward and score. End result is you suck the SPIRIT right out of the team quick smart. You can be the best defending "accountable" (f*** I hate that word) team in the world, but if you have no spirit within the team its all over.
He will put this club back into the dark ages if allowed to go on.
