Yes, some prospect of this given the timing. Why else release this now if not to let the market know he will be available? Yet Lyon's remarks seem contrary to the notion. Perhaps some other role at the Blues?
Note that the last line of the newspaper article (and conveniently omitted in the original post) states "He is not expected to return to Carlton."
I did not omitt it, I thought the rules were that your not allowed to post the entire article...so I just posted a big chunk, and the bit were he said it's not known if the players know. :?

Been fantastic to have SOS, he's done great things to the St Kilda Football Club.

As it's already been said, hopefully this can bring with it the opportunity to bring Max back. Does anyone know what his contract is at Collingwood?

Sorry, I didn't mean to leave out one of the important bits of info...

Everton, I just didn't like Mike's vibe of "I know" but the players probably don't....hopefully SOS let them know.

I guess that's a fair call that Mike has done well at his job to break a story, I don't really feel like giving the HS much credit this year to be honest.

St Kilda should very seriously look at recruiting Tom Harley as defence coach. He comes from a successful club and has been very impressive with his knowledge of the game in his role as special comments man at Channel 7.

He already has some coaching experience courtesy of his role as assistant coach and mentor at the AIS AFL Academy.
Harley has a role with GWS now...plus I think his wife is from Sydney and he is living in Sydney.

His wife, Felicity Harley (nee Percival), is editor of Women's Health magazine.

I can't help feeling that we are walking over his body while he is still alive.

I understand the speculation but can't we worry about his replacement AFTER the season is over?

No wonder Gary Ablett Jnr won't announce his decision.

I dont think that is any chance. The Blues have gone as well as could have been expected this year IMO. I certainly didnt have them higher than 6th after losing Fev.

I hope you are right. Don't want anyone with half a clue coaching them.

What about the hundreds of complete stuff ups from the snakeoil salesman so smashed on wine, pills and coffee tar that you blindly followed!

All credit to Lyon for turning things around so quickly after Mr Svengali took a list from heaven and sent it halfway to hell in just five years while the belief cloud ended up looking more like a mushroom!

If it wasn't for Ross Lyon we would not have even made the Grand Final to begin with!

I was only trying to save the club from the snakeoil saleman so my intentions were all good!

And when Rod rang me that glorious day and asked me my thoughts, I was able to refer him to a few posts on here and the rest is history!
