Until it actually happens, I'll be just treating this story as complete crap. It seems to be the standard typical modern day footy media story which serves only the journos who have something to write about... and that's about it. I would be AMAZED if he left.

N. Quinn: "I'll have $10 on Lyon to the Dees, thanks". Cup of coffee whilst typing story, hits 'send', has the rest of the day off.

It's in St Kilda's court to put a complete stop to all of this.

Regardless of whether it's complete crap, or it has some legs, we need to get on the front foot and tie RL up. He's the very best coach in the AFL currently, and one of the best in our clubs history.

Hawks did exactly the right thing with Clarkson, we must do the same, right now.

Exactly... it's garbage, a novelty bet I didn't think they even took real money on, and todays kite flying manufactured story.

If you give it any weight or credence at all you need to have a little talk to yourself.

Here is a thought:
IF we managed to win the flag this year would we still be unhappy with Ross Lyon leaving and going to the demons?

,.. what sort of a 'plunge' would it take for this type of response from the bookies
(given there's no manipulation behind the scenes going on)

If llyon is allowed to leave , i wouldn't be amazed , but ashamed.

No.

Ross could go to Melbourne, Goddard to GWS and Lenny and Roo could retire... I'd still be happy,

Maybe any bets at all placed on that book are irregular!

You sure?

I don't bet personally, but isn't the 'who is going to coach where' market pretty big?

I like to think of myself as an optimist, but I'm getting a little concerned, lock him away Saints!
