What you guys have done with your list in the last couple of years is really promising and love bringing you guys up as a case subject to my Carlton and saints supporting mates

I bet you do, and it is a fair enough comparison, although to date we are just a pocketful of promises.What you guys have done with your list in the last couple of years is really promising and love bringing you guys up as a case subject to my Carlton and saints supporting mates
I don’t think so remember he ran out of st kilda after the drawn GF rather than rebuildI bet you do, and it is a fair enough comparison, although to date we are just a pocketful of promises.
Here's a thought; IF Lyon does manage to manufacture a decent list turn around (meaning that we are contesting for top four in 2020-the end of his contract), does he qualify as a list development coach rather than the current perception of him as a coach who can only work with an established list?
Weller for Brayshaw looks like highway robbery in hindsight thoI bet you do, and it is a fair enough comparison, although to date we are just a pocketful of promises.

Was it the year after?Might want to check your facts there.

Actually stk were messing about with his new contract and Freo made a large offer.I don’t think so remember he ran out of st kilda after the drawn GF rather than rebuild
Tonight, Ross, the coaching group, the players and their Melbourne families are all going out for dinner and having a few drinks in Melbourne tonight.
It's all a big ruse to get Cerra's parents drunk and finally get that extension signed. Coincidence this happens before the bye when Adam is allowed to have a few drinks?Tonight, Ross, the coaching group, the players and their Melbourne families are all going out for dinner and having a few drinks in Melbourne tonight.

Hope they behave and don't let their hair down...been a good first half, but would be good if they could finish off the year strong.
We had one of those shindigs after a game in darwin (and leading into a bye) a few years back when Cuddles was coach. From memory Tarrant dropped his strides and Mark Harvey received an unprovoked King hit.

Aaahhhh the good old days. Cuddles might have been a cluster f&*k as a coach but he knew how to throw a piss up.
I think free agency is making it easier for clubs to stay up, and harder for clubs to rebuild .What you guys have done with your list in the last couple of years is really promising and love bringing you guys up as a case subject to my Carlton and saints supporting mates

Carlton, St Kilda, etc do not have a good core group of players, so they need to build from scratch.
We had Fyfe, Walters, Neale, Hill etc.
How do you know this??Tonight, Ross, the coaching group, the players and their Melbourne families are all going out for dinner and having a few drinks in Melbourne tonight.
David King on Fox Footy had an interview/phone call with Ross about an hour after the game and asked about how the club go about preparing for the bye. The staff in Melbourne were taking the bus together to a location to have a meal and drinks with the player’s families and fly back to Perth today. I think it would’ve been quiet the celebration because Ross said (just paraphrasing here) “am I being asked on record or not? We’ll have a few quiet beers tonight, the coaches, the staff and player’s and their families, take the bus back to the hotel after and fly back tomorrow.”How do you know this??
Yeah we know you would have loved that.Pretty triumphant post after narrowly we beat a team with 7 of their best 22 out, at home, when they kicked 9.14.
Don't get carried away. Eddie Betts had a field day but kicked 2.6, it could easily have gone the other way.
I thought running the piss ups was Heath Blacks responsibility?
I have said this before and I will say it again. The Chris Connolly era of 2002-7 Frustrated me. The only thing we got to look back on that era was finals in 2003 and a prelim in 2007. Gutted with our 2004 and 2005 seasons. Played some brilliant footy away from home in that period especially in Victoria. Essendon pinched 8th from us in 204 and beat Melbourne who were 5th in the Elim finals. Freo could of done that too and beaten the demons at the MCG in finals. Had freo got 7th or 8th in 2005, I would of backed a full strength freo Vs North and Even the cats at the MCG or Docklands in the 1st week of the finals.Sorry, while I kind of agree about replacing a coach that is not performing, I can also remember Drum and CC . I never want to go back to that s**t.
Look at St Kilda who had to replace Lyon and have got two really s**t coaches.
I'm not sure that Lyon can get us contending again, but I'm scared of what we might end up with.
Very happy to let Ross have another year or two before we roll the dice again , unless another top coach pops up.
