Leave your tributes here for Ross Lyin'

[joffaboy]

Thought I might not mind Freo winning, but saw Lyin in the box and my gut response was, "F*** you".
No sympathy. Glad Hawthorn won.

Same here. Also it is just wrong having Fremantle in a G F

[SaintPav]

Personally couldn't give a crap. Hardly devestated though.

[felix]

The cobblers did the cobbling.

[whiskers3614]

Wonder how that journalist he "malthoused" feels tonight?

[Spinner]

No more blaming the players.

Exhausting and taxing game plan, try kicking "easy" goals after implementing that.

No such thing as easy goals when you're stuffed.

We are very hard on our players.

Agree..


BTW is that you on twitter ?

Tired in the first quarter?

Oh my...

[SainterK]

Tired in the last half last week, just picked up where they left off...

Anyone who doesn't think that GP doesn't take a physical toll as the year wears on, is kidding themselves.

IMHO

[Sainternist]

The gun for hire coach shot blanks on the big day (again).

He'll most likely have another massive window of opportunity to claim his first flag next year as well. I mean, who is going to challenge them if Buddy leaves Hawthorn? Geelong could be the only threat really. Jeez, a Dockers Vs Geelong GF would be a cauliflower and brussel sprout scenario.

[St Igmata]

I thought he has done a wonderful job.
They will be back.

[satchmo]

I wonder how many players he retires tonight?

[SainterK]

Thought subbing off Clarke was a mistake, hawks gave them an opportunity to move a tall into the F50

[dragit]

I reckon if Lyon had coached the Hawks today they'd have won by ten goals.

Freo would have had to kick none for that to happen!

It was the contrast, Freo laboured and Hawks hardly had to move to take clean marks because of their kicking skills. I'm glad we have Pelchen because they have a brilliant list of skilful players. Ross took over an attack happy list and turned it ultra conservative and defensive. Danyule Pierce was so like one of his Peake, Polo or Gamble experiments too.

[Rosco]

Up your Lyon you Turd.

4 GF's zero wins

Same as us since 1997...

[stinger]

suck sh!t lyin....freo not good enough and neither was the coach.......


hawks are the first winners of a grandfinal that i have liked and admired since.....umh.......well when the hawks won the last time.......

Why is it all so simple for you and Ross Lyon to blame the players. Bad kicking by the team means there's something going on upstairs between the shoulders. The coach is accountable whether he accepts that or not. Yeah - what a strange concept - the attitude and the mental strength or focus of the players has a direct relationship with the coaching or preparation by the head coach. They fail means you have failed to prepare them for today.

Maybe SainterK meant that the gameplan is exhausting on the mind. The focus and the game of footy that Ross Lyon wants his players to play is not footy as we knew it.

The coach DEMANDS that you focus on his defensive structures and that you execute your zones. The coach rewards pressure acts. The focus isn't on kicking goals. If there is one game in the year that Ross Lyons game plan can come unstuck it is the GF.

Lot to like about the Hawks. Wholesome family club with Liberal Party values.

Dawson should be the first. Terrible game. But then again Ross might like to have a fellow 0-4 loser along side him.

What's that. They hate reffos at Hawthorn?

[ShanghaiSaint]

ummm what a supprise that they folded under the events pressure... then came the Hawks. LOL after the first 10 min I thought the hawks were going to ruin them... third qrt come back was a decent effort.. but god i thought only the saints shanked it on big days.. these guys made us look like we kicked straight.

Pavs first few shots just crazy Bruce thought he ment the 2nd...no Bruce he shanked it. anyway just shows you might think you're ready but come the last day in SEP you really know were your head is at.

Freo imo has one shot left then the list wont be able to keep that type of game up just like what happened at the Saints... so watch their list next year if Ross just brings in filla men for picks you all know were this story is going.... bye bye freo for 5-7 years. will be interesting to watch them over the next two years.

Interesting how Mr. Abbott wasn't showing any anti-Victorian sentiment today and backed the Hawks.

I suppose most other clubs could be "un-Christian" to him.

Best side all year won. No great coaching bad or good moves from either side unless we believe a person on here blaming FL for Freo bad kicking. A couple of things though. Terrible game of footy to watch live. Tall forwards are nearly finished unless the game changes and Hawthorns recruiting is sublime and someone actually said a couple of days ago that could be their problem. Best 2 on the ground werent at the club 3 years ago.

[R. Harvey 3 votes!]

Hope that burns like hell Ross ya Dog! Look I admit I'm blind I've been drinking since am! But I love the St. Kilda Football club to death
and if you are not with this club well you are against it! It wouldn't matter how much money some other prick offered me I could never support
another club! I am a saints main until I die! This guy almost got us there but then showed his true colours and left for what really matters!
So Ro$$ Lyin I hope yet another Grand Final loss burns like hell! Enjoy!!!! Carn the mighty f@rken sainters!!!! Strength Through Loyalty C.unt!!!

You have to respect the Hawks who stuck together for less pay and got Lake, Gibson, Hale and Gunston to adorn a very good core.
