Re: For the "In Ross we Trust" brigade

I'm just personally not there yet. Fair enough that you are. Just no need then to impose a false narrative on the club because you're ready for the coach to go. I never had faith to start with :wink: I never wanted Ratts to be replaced. I wanted the club to admit that we needed to hit the draft pri...

Re: Sack Lyon

ffs… why do people keep denigrating our players and pumping up Ross Lyon and…making excuses for him?! I don’t think he needs your help. He is elite at pointing the finger at everyone else except himself Steele is a dual All Australian. He didn’t earn the jackets because of his tackling. Ross arrived...

Re: For the "In Ross we Trust" brigade

I think if the club came out and was honest with the supporter base (instead of the dual natrative) then these sorts of losses like Freo and the Hawks last week, would be easier to accept It's very hard for this to occur when supporters fail or actively refuse to listen. The club has said on multip...

Re: For the "In Ross we Trust" brigade

I have posted on a few threads about the perplexing decision to play Hunter Clark in the magoos for 3 weeks in a row. Seriously Rossco!! What the faark? This is a player who had a decent preseason. This is a player who played well in a final last year No one questions that? Why? Poor decisions and ...

Re: Match Thread - Saints V Freo

I’m done with this club. I’m actually soul destroyed. I’m only in my late 20s and I don’t know how you old bastards still support this basket case of a club. Harden up mate :mrgreen: It’s tough, but there’s always something to cling to. The Zebs are playing well. We have talent coming through

Re: Bonner to Hill, Freo goal

Ross Lyon is a stubborn prick. Not the first time Bonner has made monumental stuffups from there. Sincs or NWM or Hill himself need to be kicking out Hilly, I need you to be delivering inside 50. Hilly, I want you running past the guys to receive. Hilly, I need you to make space to get the 30m kick ...

Re: For the "In Ross we Trust" brigade

We all know players can have bad weeks. I’m not a huge fan of Seb Ross, but he’s an experienced midfielder and he rarely plays 2 really poor games in a row When we lost to Hawthorn, everyone knew there’d have to be some changes to the team…but Lyon decided to have 3 of his more experienced players ‘...

Re: Sack Lyon

Jack Steele might be carrying a niggle. Didn't he have a crook knee a few weeks ago? I really don't know what's going on because I'm not on the inside, but he looks dispirited at times. Craig McCrae played Jordan De Goey exclusively in the forward line as he's coming back from a sore groin. Why does...

Re: Sack Lyon

I'm watching the Zebs on channel 7. Hunter Clark is in everything. Not only is he clean, but he directs traffic. He understands the game and he is a leader on the field Ross Lyon was criticising his midfielders last night. He deflects blame away from himself What the footy world must realise is that...

Would the coterie groups and members and sponsors have enough patience to ride out the next 2 and half years of his current contract while we bottom out? I can probably answer that myself.

For the "In Ross we Trust" brigade

Devils Advocate again Maybe we win 2-3 more games for the year. Worst case scenario sees us finish 16th. More probable is 15th. Yes...that gets us pick 4 or pick 5...but Instead of the talk about who St Kilda might bring in, could our poor performances herald an exodus of our best players? Suppose 3...

Re: Sack Lyon

Freo have an experienced and pretty good midfield. They also have a very decent backline. We are currently having to play 7 or 8 skinny kids every week and up to 10 players who have played less than 50 games, and in several cases, less than 10 games. An unjury list doesn't get fixed straight away, ...

Put a fork in him, hes done. Taken a middle team and turned them into a bottom 4 side that cant score. For reference Geelong without a bunch of their best players go to Darwin, get flogged by 60+ points and still manage to kick 100 themselves. At least their supporters have some goals to cheer. We ...

Ratten said the same and St.Kilda Board didnt like it, so they sacked him.
If Ross Lyon wasn't available they wouldn't have sacked Ratten.

Apparently Ross is going to take us to our next Grand Final

Re: Sack Lyon

The development isn't going to be a linear graph pointing upwards...we all realise that

We have young players so we understand there will be inconsistent form from some

What we are getting right now, is consistent low scoring. Consistent ugly and boring football
