Re: Fisher jailed
Thanks skeptic Easy for people to judge others when they haven't walked in their shoes. He will pay a price for his decisions. I don't know his personal struggles, and I'm not asking anyone to feel sorry for him if they don't want to....just wanted to say Sam is still one of my favourite former Sain...

Re: King ...out of form or
Our training standards were a joke - N Riewoldt came out and said it What was it you posted about Ross Lyon and how he responded to what Roo had said?

Re: I accept the criticism: Ross Lyon press conference
If all it takes to be successful is a good coach Either 1/ Ross Lyon is an average coach 2/ that statement is incorrect Give it another 2 years...wait....hell - let's go with 3!! Give it another 3 full years. That'll make it nearly 5 years of Ross the Boss's second coming Up until that time...........

Re: Team vs Freo (Walyalup)
Not all football pundits seem to see worrying signs as early as you Scolops. Coaches included. Even after the event. I'm just a plebeian fan. An outsider The coaches have the insight. It's Ross's job to analyse and predict. The coaches are paid to review each player's performance AND to watch train...

Re: Team vs Freo (Walyalup)
Bringing Pou back in after 1 game in the magoos is ok by me, BUT…he didn’t get a rest last week If you notice the reasons for dropping several players this week it says ‘managed’ If it’s ok to ‘manage’ Seb, Tim and other players, then I’d like to see Pou managed at some stage Also Wilson. He’s in hi...

Re: Team vs Freo (Walyalup)
Coach decides to manage 3 players altogether in the same week as he drops another 3. That's 6 changes. Sometimes you can have too many changes.

Re: Team vs Freo (Walyalup)
Weak and reactive. Ross Lyon's 'whateva' selection. What utter garbage Just post “I hate Lyon” Leave it at that cause this is dribbling The messiah can do no wrong He could have dropped 10 players and Mr Dupont would still be calling him a genius What would Pou's team mates be thinking after he is ...

I was one of Longy's biggest supporters when he was with us, but he's been disappointing since moving up there.
Let's see how he progresses with his career

Re: King ...out of form or
Hmmmm. 2009 is a long time ago and that team was already high scoring before Lyon arrived as coach The rules were different. The game was different...but none the less, Rossy soon had his stamp on that team and they were scoring 9 goals per match And... let's face it. Who gives a stuff what we score...

Re: Cold Hard Facts
Steele, Clark, Ross, and Jones Versus Bontempelli, Liberatore, Mcrae, and Dunkley We won a final against them. Remember that? Oh... sorry...I forgot. Ryder was the difference and our mids are all hopeless Jones, obviously has been tried this year and is now out of favour. I think Seb is also passed ...

Re: Cold Hard Facts
Petracca gets forward and kicks goals Steele? Don’t get me wrong, Steele is a very valuable footballer at St Kilda but given the position he plays he is compared to (list the elite mids) 2021 was 2021 but it is now 2024 I just do not rank Steele as competition leading - unlike Marshall, Sinclair, H...

Re: Cold Hard Facts
Why is the last quarter or the last 15 mins any less important than any other stage of a match? They call them 'junk time' goals for a reason. It's usually because the other team has all but sown up the victory. Our opposition in both the Port match (Powell-Pepper, Rozee and Aliir) and GWS match (T...

Nick Riewoldt has come out and said Max doesn't work hard enough. Plus...he lacks forward craft. Well done to the bozo amateurs Lethlean and Co. for releasing Josh Bruce at the end of 2019.

Re: As much as I loathe them maybe we should throw caution to the wind...
I don't think it's simply about players. Last year was a bit of a honeymoon period for Ross Lyon. The new 'game plan' for players and the new messaging from the new coach was important, but so too was the need to impress and preserve your footy career. It doesn't take much for players to lose faith ...
