YOUR CHOICE FOR NEXT COACH

[Waltzing St Kilda]

1. Lyon
2. Lenny
3. Harvey

[Rubyjo]

Buckley

[asiu]

my choice would be :


Banger and Lenny

as in coach and coach in waiting

joint coaches basically


very st kilda
a brave st kilda

[Annoyedsaint]

Leppitsch.

We need a hard nosed turd that will keep players honest each week. He’s our guy.

[skeptic]

I like Hayes

[shanegrambeau]

Banger : Head Coach
Lenny : Assistant and brother-in-arms
Buckley : Orange Boy

[bigcarl]

Give it to Lenny. Arguably should have been captain in our last successful period. Would have a nice symmetry to it.

[Sainternist]

Buckley

WHY?

[Sainternist]

Honestly, I have NFI at this stage.

Steele for Captain-Coach!! (Just kidding, obviously!)

But for the love of Zod, can we get it right this time!!

[jays]

Ross the boss, we need a hard coach not a mates coach

[spert]

Lenny clearly came back to the club for a reason

[markp]

Surely it can't and won't be Lyon.

Buckley might also be repeating the Ratten recycling unsuccessful coach trip.

We chose Watters, Richardson, Ratten, over Banger... (how'd that go?) Banger or Hayes are certainly more deserving, and I'd be very happy with either.

But we really need to find our Craig McRae... fresh, hungry, very smart, ::: no baggage ::: .

Good chance Yze, he seems to be the next cab off the rank (and "C'mon Yz-Saints" works!)

Glad it's not a decision I have to make.

[PADDLEPOP1001]

Bucks & Lenny

[wally]

I wouldn’t mind Lyon but I feel the list is not good enough for him to succeed.
Maybe a Buckley no nice guys

[Templar]

If it is Buckley we are done here. I will barrack for the Suns until he, and presumably the board, get the arse.

[Banger9798]

Leppitsch.

We need a hard nosed turd that will keep players honest each week. He’s our guy.

+1

[Tommyj]

Leppa will know what it takes, and in his younger years was a saints supporter if that helps

[Bruce G McAbee]

Adam Yze

[bigcarl]

I guess we’ll follow the modern trend of running a “process”. I can see why clubs do it as it gives them an “out” when things go tits up, some sort of plausible deniability.

Would be refreshing if the club just picked someone and backed them in.

[silverhalo]

Ross Lyon working with Lenny as assistant - brilliant combo!

I agrree. If Lyon wants the job, give it to him. Spare us the charade.

[Bruce G McAbee]

I see Lyon as a regressive step and his game plan is obsolete. It won't get close to the Geelong's or Melbourne's style of play.

[Laurie]

It would be a brave coach to take us on with our history of sackings.
Lets take this review further and look at all of our football depts including CEO and his input on some of our recruiting decicions re Hannebery and Hill .

Leppa or Yze would be my choice.

Maybe Lenny, but at least no “process” would show that someone is making the decisions down there rather than passing the buck.

[Life Long Saint]

Is Ross Lyon the only coach we've had in the last 30 years that we haven't sacked and has gone on to coach somewhere else?
