Oh, so there's history! Well, never mind...I'm sorry to say that I reckon Tef might be right...it's GT's soft players RL has got to work with! Maybe the bedlam we've got now is a result of what happens when you remove a megalomanic from the helm!?! GT's downfall was player management...he was too in...

I think that was Saint 43, not me. I'm all up for the public spray...they deserve it. BUT, I agree with what you're saying and it's the most appropriate response to the POOBAR's who started this thread...insinuating that there is a supporter base within the club that should be ashamed of supporting ...

How would a team maintain confidence when the leader of our club slags them off as soft? In public. Is that good man management strategy?[/quote] If nothing else works...which it doesn't appear to be...absolutely. It should be a wake-up call. Besides, these guys are abusing eachother on the field, t...

Is anyone seriously calling for him to be sack now? Lyon's true test is now. If he passes that test by turning things around I will be the first calling for him to be given an extension and let him make some tough calls. If he doesn't, I don't see we have any choice but to exit him out. HAHAHAHAHAA...

The only person letting players off the hook is our coach. But hey, I bet he's popular with the players. :roll: Well, he's on stage now...does he turn nasty and chop some heads? I hope so. In this situation, I'd love to see players scarred s**tless of him...how would you like mto face Dean Laidley ...

If players are instructed to run to space rather than attack the player with the pill . . . then yes it is the coaches fault. Given his recent comments, and those today, I'd say it's not his fault then. What commente were they? Do you mean his "don't blame me the players are soft" comment...

I would not cut them from the list....but Dal and Joey only landed one tackle between them. :idea: That makes me grind my teeth. And this is RL's fault?

So...what's the solution. I wouldn't have thought any supporter in their right mind would want a rudderless club less than half-way through a season, sitting on the verge of the eight, no matter how cruddy their performance. Unfortunately we are stuck with him until at least seasons end. That we ar...

So we support Lyon because he's not GT or because GT was worse? Some logic there. We are currently the worst coached side in the league. We are also the worst prepared team in the league. Despite 2 preseasons, 2 drafts & 31 games in charge, it's GT's fault we played like we did today? FFS, that...

Ross Lyon is to smart to be coaching our list we play dumb football and it's the players fault not the coach's. Poor Ross has very little to work with atm. MMM i wonder why he has so little to work with? Our list has been going backwards since 2004 and now poor Ross is getting it in the neck. 100 P...

Well, he had to watch the same piss poor team effort we did today. I think the match panel deserves more of a spanking, but at least now the whole world knows how many passengers are going around in the St Kilda team. Shame we just signed one of 'em up for another 3 years!

Got a better option? Sack the coach? Yeah, that'd be great. We gotta show some guts (like Geelong, Richmond and Hawthorn), stick with the plan and strap ourselves in for the ride. RL knows the problems, so does everyone else...what's he gonna do about it? We'll have to wait and see.

Of course we have a better list than Collingwood...and they're average. You only need half a head to work that out! We loped around last week like a team going through the motions, and still only lost by 9 points. We're a chance this season, no doubt. If we had played last week like everyone expect...
