Grilj looks awesome, like a smarter version of Zac Jones. He keeps the ball going at an erratic pace but makes smart decisions with it. Moves like a rabbit with an amphetamine issue.

'Playful and quirky'? No, Ross, your pressers are just disrespectful

There's irony in Ross Lyon's defensive performance in his post-loss press conference being better than what his team shows on the day, but it's also a routine that's disrespectful to the media and fans alike, writes Rohan Connolly.

Media give us shit all the time then crack the shits when Ross doesn't respond exactly how they want him to.

RoCo also showing he has NFI with this one 'In fact, Lyon's famous defensive-mindedness when it comes to game style means the odd gamble would probably be more approved by the critics than pilloried.'

Okay at this point in time it’s sounding a bit creepy with the CEO approval of a young guy (Hugo) getting sprayed. It’s starting to look like a Hugo pile-on. Losing the narrative on this. Hope that Hugo is getting well taken care of behind closed doors. He is starting to look like a scapegoat.

I think this situation is getting very overblown by the media, and by some fans.

We have all seen some pretty bad sprays over the years within our club and other clubs.

No player wants to cop it. It’s part of footy, people need to understand that.

Tom Morris did report Ross gave it to the entire team after the game. It’s going to be an interesting week to see how the boys respond.

Jesus.
This is so overblown it’s ridiculous.
What would you like the CEO to do, undermine the coach and his choices?

Seriously, harden up. Garcia has the temperament to handle it and it will likely fuel him to work on his craft even harder. Ross would have known that when giving the spray.

Really Kate ( whoever you are)
Because you know Ross and the relationship he has with Hugo so well… 🙄

Ugh, the footy media is for the most part putrid.

Besides which, if he’s already regarded as a “young gun” he can surely take it.

‘The odd gamble’? How many first and second year players does he want us to play?

Such lazy, lazy journalism - why would anyone give him two minutes of credence. He has obviously watched very few of our games since the bye last year.

Seems like the outside world doesn’t know that Ross and the younger players at our club have a very strong relationship. For example look at how he is handling Collard who some thought would be delisted or traded back to WA lol.

As a coach, it’s his responsibility to “coach” his players. Why we mad about that?

Ross is a father figure for these blokes, i highly doubt any of them are crying over this.

What a load of garbage.
If you want to play AFL and attend centre bounce, then contested ball is your bread and butter. He wasn't getting it done, and he didn't lift after getting sprayed for it.

Ross didn't publicly lambaste him, it's the soft journos who are looking for something to have a go at.

God knows why anybody would take any notice of that stupid girl on the AFL website, but good on the CEO for supporting his coach.

He doesn’t need to do anything. Play a straight bat. You’re the CEO so stay in your lane.

It’s akin to bashing someone in a wheelchair and then beating your chest walking around like a gangster. Hugo is a teenager with a few games experience. I’d rather see a senior player get sprayed like Steele. CEO doesn’t need to add more fuel to the fire. It’s not tough acting so proud that Hugo got sprayed. He’s a ripper of a kid and I’m just saying I hope he’s being taken care of because the youngsters these days are not like the olden days, you can’t just tell them to harden up.

If you think anyone is doing any of this to appear “tough”, you may need to reassess.

If they can't handle getting told to harden up, they aren't much chance of winning a footy when the likes of Lachie Neale are lining up against them.

Hot-house flowers with helicopter parents are never going to make it in this game anyway.
