Ross Lyon in?
this is exactly what i'm looking forIf you want someone to smash some heads without giving a fu** he'd be perfect.
Although what confidence would Rutten have now?
He said something competent on Footy Classified that one timeOkay, for those saying Lyon, I get he was a very good coach but what makes him qualified for GM of Football?
sh*t timing surly have a replacement lined up
I'm not objecting to it. Just not sure what makes him qualified.He said something competent on Footy Classified that one time
Wouldn't be the worst thing though. I can definitely think of worse things.
Don't mind thisSomeone on Blitz saying the current word is Simon Lloyd (Geelong)
when you've been a successful coach/assistant across 3 clubs, he'd have had great exposure to what works.Okay, for those saying Lyon, I get he was a very good coach but what makes him qualified for GM of Football?

Yeah, sorry, it'd need to be a fair bit more than that to impress mewhen you've been a successful coach/assistant across 3 clubs, he'd have had great exposure to what works.

You reckon? He's a fairly polarising person from all reports.never thought i would say this about Ross... but HELL YES
That would make him stand outHe said something competent on Footy Classified that one time
Coaching and GM of Football are very different roles. I'm not saying Lyon isn't qualified but I'm not saying he is either. As for Richo, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯7 clubs?
What was the appeal with Richardson in the first place?

I'm not sure what I'd think of it but I know the media have been talking about that idea for sometime, not Essendon specifically, but that Lyon could be good in a different role in a football department as long as he had no intention of coaching again. The word on Ross when he did coach was that he liked to do everything himself anyway so maybe he does have a lot of experience in doing many things involved in running a football department.I'm not objecting to it. Just not sure what makes him qualified.
Yeah, that's a fair call. Just wait and see I guessWell yeah, I mean I'm not saying I know. I definitely don't. But I would be surprised if a former coach didn't know a little bit about it.
Ah, that's more like it.
