Lyon Sacked!!

[SaintPav]

Will be coach of Essendon or Adelaide next season

Without doubt!

Ratten will coach StK

B.Scott will coach either
Fremantle, Port or Essendon (if Ross goes to Adel)

M.Voss will also coach

Lyon going to USA to study in 2020

Is he doing the ethics component - f***wit.

Harvard will enrol anyone these days.

IN ROSS WE TRUST

Get it done!

Surely you jest

No, he's the best available by a country mile, Freo are nuts!

No thanks. He is a prick, tosser and a loser.

Walked out on the club before after leaving us srtipped bare.

He’s a mercenary narcissist who’d have no compunction leaving us in the lurch AGAIN!

No, nup, never, nyet, nein, non, née, ne, nej, Nahim, nem, nihil, nē, nei, nie, naeh, nào, nahim, nahin, nu, net, nej, ni!

So that would be a "no" then?

Sorry if it's been said already (don't want to go through 3 pages of posts) but I seriously won't go to the footy if we have to go back to playing that style of negative / ultra defensive footy, it's as boring as s*&^ and not appealing at all. NO, NO, NO to Ross Lyin.....leaders with no integrity don't serve as good role models for our younger guys anyway.

[Rubyjo]

The ex wants to come back after they broke my heart and put me on skid row for 8 years.. Left the cupboard bare didn't nurture the children.. Now he has been given the ass because he did it again to his most recent love.. No f****** way who is that stupid..

Opens up a great opportunity for B Scott!

Only a matter of time when none of his assistants were offered contracts for next year.

Was bound to happen given this - new coach wants their own team.

[SaintPav]

Gee whiz.

No one was more disgusted with Ro$$ when he departed.

But if he's the best man for the job -- and Roo, Dal, Joey and BJ would argue that he is -- then I'd suggest we should suck it up.

Interview him and if he blows it out of the water then give him the job. He's a c*** and that's what we need.

And trade Long for a second rounder.

Any other brilliant ideas?!

Can't recall saying that. In fact, I didn't.

Suggested Long was tradeable to the Injectors as they'd previously expressed an interest in him.

As such we'd probably get overs for him which we could then use to secure Ben King or Brad Hill.

Sorry, but didn't read it that way.

Long has serious talent but needs patience.

Lyon back is a terrible idea.

Riewoldt suggesting that it is "slim" chance for him coming to the saints next year on AFL 360.

Doubt he would come even if offered.

I would take a new challenge, new team. If one was offered.

Riewoldt suggesting that it is "slim" chance for him coming to the saints next year on AFL 360.

Riewoldt wasn't exactly bullish on Ratten's chances On The Couch last night. Sorted smirked in an "I know something...." manner. Not that I'm sure of that, but he did smirk.

Tony74 are you hearing any whispers around the corridors? King12? Jaxons?

[Stephen Theodore]

Brad Scott hello fremantle.. Please...

My first thought too. Hope so.

[SaintPav]

Shame Ted isn't around anymore. He’d be all be all over who our next coach is.

Here is a post from tony74 from a about 4 weeks ago when Lyon's mob was still in the race for finals...that was before Ratten outcoached the greatest coach ever in the history of AFL. Underneath that is my post just before we played Freo

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=99296&p=1809938#p1809938

I only cheer a coach who has actually done something. Lyin walked in to a club that had a champion team that had just played off in 2 consecutive prelims. Pity he couldn't get the job done...no matter how many chances his players provided for him

Sounds to me like you're a bit like Richo. You're just looking at all the negatives with Grant and you refuse to acknowledge the legacy he left for Ross. That's ok. You can have your opinion. No one can take that away from you.

If Ratten can come up with a plan to counter Sandilands dominance and quell Brad Hill, Nate Fyfe, Michael Walters and Ed Langdon then I suppose all the Lyin lovers will say we have a better squad...LOL

Apparently a guy called Riewoldt has been secretly interviewed for the job.
The panel were so impressed they wanted to know who he would want as assistants.

[Waltzing St Kilda]

BJ says St Kilda fans would welcome Ross back.

BJ obviously doesn't visit Saintsational.

Dont be surprised if he bobs up at GWS'.

Most of the players he has coach all seem to regard him highly.

Lyin is exactly what GWS need.

Bastards will win the flag next year with him in charge.

Well, the one good thing I can say about Lyon is that he’s enrolling in one of my favourite subjects - behavioural economics - at Harvard - total envy at that one. Everyone should read into that subject as it is relatively new and has a few Nobel prizes that had been won there.

Other than that - what a narcissist. Everything is about him, blatant lying on statistics, constant oneupmanship, etc.

Boring game style. Saints picked him over Longmire and Longmire won a premiership with a less talented list. This one despite two great lists didn’t get the ultimate prize. Why? Because teams were always in with a chance against his style. Even when saints were down 9 points against Freo with 2 minutes to go, I knew that the team had a chance if they executed well.

Dogs eats their own vomit. I hope no club goes near him as a senior coach for the benefit of everyone.

Imagine if he could turn our standard 10.12 score into a winning score though?

And GOAT Newnes would be named captain and given a 5 year deal.

Did I read this correctly? You prefer our current situation of beating Fremantle barely in Melbourne and 8 years of consecutive non finals than playing finals and Grand Finals?

This might be what’s wrong with the club. That we accept such mediocre performances.

We have been as boring as ever this year except for the week or two post Richo’s sacking. Even then a very conservative team.
