Opposition coaches sacked after a loss to the Saints

Post: # 1635421Post supersaints »

Anyone know how many?
I know Leppa was going to get the chop - loss or not, but does anyone know how many coaches have been sacked after loosing to us. We used to be that bad it was more or less the last straw. I think Thommo and Lyon may have finished off a few as well when we were playing good footy. I've never seen a stat that may list them.... Memories anyone?

Good question but I can't recall any.

One of my favourite memories, though, is the total tool Brian Taylor being taught a lesson by the young Danny Frawley a Moorabbin. After being dragged for being reported he never wore a Tigers jumper again! Did OK for Colllingwood but my dislike for the boofhead has endured for more than 3 decades since that game!

Only one I can recall was Brett Ratten but I'm sure there quite a few more, I'll keep mulling it over

Neil Craig

Obliterated the crows, particularly remember #13 having a blinder.

Matthews dragged him in a game in 1987 against us when he was playing with the Pies.

Both had good games kicking 13 goals between them - strictly speaking Craig resigned (fell on his own sword) after this loss.

I thought that too but he lasted a few more games.
