Dal Santo Dropped this weekend

[Big Nasty]

SEN said it looks like Nick Dal Santo will be dropped from the line up tonight. Its not confirmation how ever it's a likely source.
Glad I didn't pick him up this year, however there would be a few dissapointed coaches out there.

Will hurt a few teams this week i'd imagine, especially choosing a captain.

SEN said they can confirm that Dal Santo has been dropped.

Greeeeaat

Makes sense to drop your best player when your in the dumps

How to St Kilda fans feel about having a clearly deranged coach?

although tbh this isn't the first time i suspected Lyon and Dal don't get along. Dal will leave Saints this year if Lyon gets another year

Bizarre decision. I actually thought Montagna (who I have, don't ask) was in danger.

 

[Biggie]

Awful decision by Lyon.

Not me, no worries in the world! Don't give a shit!

I just want Bradshaw back dammit!

Haha, seeing is believing

 

[Biggie]

I agree Thommo.

Hopefully its someone else (BUT NOT HAYES!!)

Lyon did the right thing, because only 99% of footy fans agree that dal santo is a superstar

wat a stooge...gotta be tanking

I believe its a good move, hes a great, quality player but doesn't put the effort in.

 

[Clunk]

I think Lyons parents might have been cousins!

As a minor upside for some of us perhaps Armitage might get a game again... not that he ever did anything to be dropped.

Seems possible. Perhaps our two teams will be battling it out for the top players come draft time, eh Houligun?

Agreed its ON!

F*******k You Ross Lyon. I am now convinced your a complete dud of a coach.

Hopefully Dal leaves and goes to Carlton to keep Sam Lane happy!

Not too worried though, got Cotch as cover. Dally usually tears it up against Freo though. Why couldnt it have been when he played a team with a bunch of taggers?? aka Sydney.

i've resisted bagging that spud Lyon for the whole season but he's making it pretty damn difficult. Maybe the saints should think about protecting some of their guns as Geelong do for Ablett. Dal is right up there with the best and most effective users of the ball in the league. if they can isolate him long enough to deliver down the ground they could be a much more effective and damaging team.

Maybe Dal just doesn't understand Lyon's revolutionary 'boot the hell out of the ball and hope someone marks it' tactic. Gram was executing it perfectly for the first part of the season until he too broke ranks and actually started to play a couple of good games recently.

Lyon is a joke and makes Grant Thomas look like Confucius. He's turned a very good team into an average one right now. I hope they can turn it around, but sadly I don't think that will happen with Lyon as coach.

 

[Magpie Magic]

Damn it, at least I have Cotchin as cover though.

 

[Headless]

WTH is he thinking?

 

[a1118374]

frick might be worth trading him....not much worth. maybe goodwin. maybe wait for judd to go down a little if he drops off a little this week. dont want to have his money wasted, but i have houli and cotchin in waiting

In all likelyhood he would have been blanketed by the Ablett killing machine....Crowley. At least this way he won't be copping any corkies from Carr

 

[sens]

WTF Lyon. I'll still start dal on the field and hope that he is a late inclusion and put Armfield/McNamara as emergence.
