Do you mean apart from the fact he had to apply for, and then get a senior AFL coaching gig?fonz_#15 wrote:i have never sat down with Ross Lyon and had a chat about footy, there is nothing to indicate that he knows more than me about footy.
On all the available evidence he's a long, long, long way in front of you on the AFL knowledge front.
He's well in front of me too if that makes you feel any better ...

Fiora had another year to go on his contract & he didnt expect to be delisted!
With all the negativity the poor bloke cops I would not be surprised that he doesnt want to play seniors footy..
You guys constantly give him shite!!
Get off his back!!
GO FIZZ
Frankly, I'm surprised the guy isn't suicidal given the cr@p he gets on this forum.
The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

Who ever gave him a contract should be strung up
sick of this guy getting mentioned
He gets criticised because he bloody well deserves it. Yes he has another year on his contract yada yada, but people will get off his case when he stands up and delivers something worth praising. Has had more chances than anyone else I can think of and consistently fails to give it a shake. Deadwood.

On a good day Fiora can be a very dangerous player. I would like to see him around or closing on the 50 metre mark with licence to "go the distance" off his left foot (with improved confidence therefore accuracy).
Can also take a "grab" which adds to his potential to cause headaches.
I would not have him in my best 22, but only 22 can get into that!
His best will be 5 touches, 5 goals type of stuff.
And if he can do that, he may just be in my best 22.

And for good reason too... coz you'd crap your jocks on an AFL field.

If he isn't delisted, then it must be for a reason.
![Question :?:](./images/smilies/icon_question.gif)
Accept him what he is, and let's see if he can earn his spot. He may well never play again for all I know, and if he gets cut, too bad.
Still no reason to pour personal abuse on the guy.
Get off the guys back FFS. You are a tool.
Is that a more likeable answer???

its not personal abuse, he just isn't good enough. i have never once said he is a s*** bloke.
i may be a keyboard hero or whatever you want to call it but if you think average players like him deserve a spot on our list then you obviously dont have high hopes for the club.

I've had high hopes for this club for 40 years now.
Why do I not have high hopes for our club? If they decided to cut him, then I'd accept their decision.
What annoys me is that these threads are started in the first place. And that certain players are always singled out for abuse and criticism.
There are players on our list who will not win you a flag, and Fiora is but one of them. But why single him out?
Let's start a thread on CJ, Milne and a few others who didn't step up during the finals??
Read my sig!

Well I hope for the sake of a few posters on this forum that the clubs cuts him. His presence seems to somehow throw their lives into turmoil.vacuous space wrote:He's not safe yet. There's still ten more days before the list is finalised. They could be sorting out TPP issues before getting rid of guys with contracts.
That, or they might have BIG plans for Fiora in 2009.
Maybe they want to keep him, so he can take the heat off Ray... who appears to have gained whipping boy status already?

IMO he will never play in a premiership side. He might be OK in a list of 40 odd players but not in a list of 22 premiership players. Having said that, he's a damn sight better than I could ever be, so good on you fizz. I hope you prove me wrong.
I once spent a year in Adelaide, I think it was on a Sunday.

There's always room for more than one whipping boy around here. With Blake having a solid season and Raph finishing strongly, there's more than enough reserve bile for both Ray and Fiora.WayneJudson42 wrote:Maybe they want to keep him, so he can take the heat off Ray... who appears to have gained whipping boy status already?
Yeah nah pleasing positive
I'm always behind the news. Has Birss been delisted? I'd better go check all the recent threads...fonz_#15 wrote:he is rubbish.it is a travesty that someone with balls like Birssy has been delisted yet this peah-heart is still on our list.
Fiora is a fringe player who has managed to hang on because
1) He is a good attacking player when in form
2) He follows instructions and is a team player, a linking type between the backs and the forwards - perhaps your old style wingman.
His coaches know he is an outside, ahead of the ball player - but there are roles in the side during the year for a player like this. If he is out of form, then it's the magoos.
But if Birss has been delisted, Fizzer is lucky to survive. Maybe those marks of the week saved him? We all like a good grab.
we exist on a brane - thank f*** for StK

Think the cr@p put on him on here is way over the top....
He is far from the worst player on our list....

yeh ok let's be happy with mediocre inconsistent under-performers just coz they're in a Saints jumper. I want to see us win a flag, not ponce about with deadwood who've had their chances and then some to prove they're worth a go in the RW&B and consistently come up short.FullMonty wrote:Get off his back FFS.![]()
Why do so many passionate saints supporters bag the crap out of our own guy's?
Go Fizz!
