Re: For the "In Ross we Trust" brigade

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. I think if the club came out and was honest with the supporter base (instead of the dual natrative) then these ...

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: King ...out of form or

Ive refrained from calling Max a bust...however his gutless, passionless effort tonight was insipid. But who cares? We cant drop him! We'd never survive without his 3 marks & 1 behind. He'll have a meeting with Ross and he'll say it wasn't fair that Caminiti was targeted as a KP Forward. "...

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, ...

Re: Sack Lyon

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: Ben Paton Forward

I would have preferred Jones in ahead of Paton tonight It's illogical to be making him the sub. I thought Paton or Pou should have been sub Jones was in ripping from in the VFL. Use that momentum and confidence he had and start him on the ground. Copper Sharman was in ripping form in the VFL. It's ...

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

That has to change

Re: Ben Paton Forward

I’m not talking about his ability The idea of him playing at HF - beyond a joke Puts someone in the forward line who you want there to NOT kick goals. I mean...he's not specifically telling him to do that, but he's not a goal scorer...is he? Classic Ross Lyon move What's changed since he was our co...

Great effort from Mattaes late in the game and unlucky not to have been paid that mark...but game was all but lost by then.
