We're stuck with Lyon, and pending the results this September that may or may not be a good thing.

Do tell - we are all ears????
His game plan doesn't win games.
He doesn't get his message through to the players.
He isn't get the best out of the good players.
There is no improvement in average players.
He is arrogant in the media and with journalists.
He can't retain assistant coaches.
He can't win games when our stars don't dominate the game.
He isn't developing kids.
Back to the OP. Yes GT should be able to comment on other coaches. Is this post in realtion to the OP.saintsRrising wrote:rodgerfox wrote:

Yes we all know that you are itching to have Lyon sacked Rodge...and that you have been gunning for him for a while.
It is interesting reading your past report card on him.

* Gardi, King, Schneider, Ray, Zac, Dempster.....?
His game plan doesn't win games.
* Ooops... I think that may have just been the 4th best H&A season in history
He doesn't get his message through to the players.
* Well yes he had to undo a lot of downhill skier type thinking....but plugging awy at it Dal. Milne etc are now all on board.
He isn't get the best out of the good players.
* Ball is about the only one. Even Roo has been made into a better player. He never used to tackle, chase etc like he does now etc..
There is no improvement in average players.
* Oooops..now that is just downright embarrassing...
He is arrogant in the media and with journalists.
* And the relevance of this is??? However funning thing is now the journos actually :get" what he is saying now.
He can't retain assistant coaches.
* When did SOS leave???? Obviously a shocking move to gain Tudor
He can't win games when our stars don't dominate the game.
* err note the Hawks game
He isn't developing kids.
* Yes he is...it is just with the brilliant trading that Lyon and Drain have done that we have not had to rush youngsters into the seniors.

On the Internet and in text messaging
The ellipsis is one of the favorite constructions of internet chat rooms, and has evolved over the past ten years into a staple of text-messaging. Though an ellipsis is technically complete with three periods (...), its rise in popularity as a "trailing-off" or "silence" indicator, particularly in mid-20th century comic strip and comic book prose writing, has led to expanded uses online. It has been used in new ways online, sometimes at the end of a message "to signal that the rest of the message is forthcoming." [5]
Today, extended ellipsis of seven, ten, or even dozens of periods have become common constructions in internet chat rooms and text messages.[6]
"Elliptical commas", or, commas used in plurality for the effect of ellipsis or multiple ellipsis, have also grown in popularity online—though no style journal or manual has yet embraced them.[6]

I totally disagree but if you can only come up with only 2 after the many he has said then he must know a bit. Your hatred for anything Gt is now bordering on obsessive. maybe you should go and get it checked out or we may win a flag and all you will be thinking of is GT.saintsRrising wrote:1/ Conversations and threads do evolve....so not eveything needs to be directly on the OPplugger66 wrote:

2/ Yes GT is in the media and as such is free to comment of AFL coaches...and players.
However just because he is free to comment it does not mean that we are not free to consider his comments and to then make our own opinions on his comments.
I particularly liked his comment on Lyon at the start of this year...you know the one where GT stated that Lyon did not have what it took to be a coach and GT knew this because he use to play with Lyon. = Wrong
Or last seasons pre-season pearler where GT backed up Brereton's comments by saying that he GT had "seen the signs" of Banger being passed it. = Wrong as Banger had a very good year.
Now not all GT's comments are wrong, but my conclusion is that he is one of the least knowledgeable and incisive "expert" commentators in the media.
I must have missed that, could you show me the exact quote?saintsRrising wrote: I particularly liked his comment on Lyon at the start of this year...you know the one where GT stated that Lyon did not have what it took to be a coach and GT knew this because he use to play with Lyon. = Wrong
SRS says things often enough he then thinks they are true no matter how fabricated they are.satchmo wrote:I must have missed that, could you show me the exact quote?saintsRrising wrote: I particularly liked his comment on Lyon at the start of this year...you know the one where GT stated that Lyon did not have what it took to be a coach and GT knew this because he use to play with Lyon. = Wrong
So what abouts...no dots (strops) as in yours ...
I'm a straight shaving newbie, and for me the biggest part of learning how to straight shave is stropping properly. Stropping seems to account for 90% of my thoughts in this learning process. It's something mysterious, and isn't exactly all that intuitive.
Anywho, I'm one of those people that once they lie their heads down to sleep their mind starts running. I usually start to think about whatever has been on my mind recently, and stropping has been on my mind these past two weeks. So lately as I'm try to drift off into sleep I start to think about my stropping technique. This goes into this image of stropping. Back and forth, back and forth. With that nice stropping sound. Before I now it, I'm asleep.
So, for you gentleman, I have invented a new way of getting you to fall asleep. Unlike counting sheep, it actually works. Just image yourself stropping, and that sweet rhythm will put you to rest.
P.S. I enjoy stropping.
The two most popular types are 'mugi' (made from barley) and 'imo' (made from potatoes). Usually about 25% alcohol it's usually had straight or mixed with water
Having spent considerable time in Korea, I have had the Soju experience on a number of occassions. Back then, moderation was not my forte but it was quite an enjoyable drink that packed quite a wollop. A very odd alcohol experience. First off, you can't taste the alcohol. Unlike like most intoxicants, the first reaction is one of totally being wired (i.e. I just chugged a case of Red Bull and ate a box of No Doz). After that's over with (it lasts an hour or two) then suddenly without warning, the alcohol just kicks you in the man parts and you're drooling on your shoes, aren't real sure where you are, and develop tunnel vision.
The hangover from this stuff is absolutely horrendous and unmatched anywhere in my drinking career. Amongst GIs in Korea it is affectionately known as "Soju Confused". Tasks you've mindlessly accomplished since childhood (i.e. tying shoes) become very confusing and take a minute to figure out the morning after. Bacchus D a Korean Herbal Energy drink with massive quantites of vitamin B-12 is good to have on hand to combat the effects. In fact, this mana from heaven will literally pull you out of a ghastly state of intoxication in short order.
