I don’t thinkk we’ve rebuilt at all since Pelchen
Which is why we are a mid table mess
In 2018/2019
We did a top up after recruiting Clarke, Coffield and King
Hannebery then Ryder, Hill, Howard, Butler,
Then Higgins, Zak Jones and Crouch

Re: Drafting 25
Why not Billings vs Paddy Cripps or Zac Merrett? Why limit it just to Bontempelli?! Why not Dane Swan or Brian Lake in 2001 and not Josh Houlihan What about Nat Fyfe in 09 - we traded the pick just before he was selected for A Lovett What about Taking David Armitage when James Frawley and Jack Reiwo...

Re: Sandy v Bullants
Plays in a position where tackling is not common
Not sure how many tackles Nasiah and Battle have but he plays a similar role.
He’s not an inside mid

Re: Footy Fix: Ross Lyon is the AFL's most boring coach once again - and it's suffocating the Saints' season
Geelong have surprised - did you pick them as a top 2 team?
They are remarkable
I still don’t think they are a premiership threat though
Collingwood- hard to gauge
Probably the luckiest premiership in my memory
They won a ridiculous amount of close games last season including finals.

Combined with a pick 23-28. And maybe trading...

Article is basic and just goes along with media narrative
There is no ‘root cause’
Its analysis is simplistic and could be written by a year 10 kid

Re: Sandy v Bullants
Only ever seen Ross at the VFL once before - and that was last time he was coach.
He may have been there but not visible
Ratten and AR were frequently there
Steele and Hunter were there, Steele normally is there

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
How do you measure a coaches performance?
Win/Loss?
Premierships?
Great coaches are nothing without quality players, whereas quality players can still dominate regardless of the coach!

Re: Durrrrrr Howard
Instead of calling Dougal a ‘whipping boy’
Rate his game last night?
I’d say insipid
Ross was very poor (especially in the first half) he has a few credits in the bank though - wouldn’t you say?
Steele was also average - also credits - a load of them

Re: Let’s talk about cheating
Ross had a a usual media manager meeting before the presser
He knew exactly what was going to be asked
He knew exactly the messaging he needed to send
Toed the party line
Tried to appease the supporters (dual narrative)
Defended his coaching- predictable

The coach is not the answer!!!! It’s good to have a decent one
But give me good players over a good coach anyday
People just want to believe it is to give them hope when a coach is sacked!

Or did he play well because he’s a gun AA defender
