Coach Fremantle: where to now after Lyon?

[Alphonse_]

Might as well change it to Woosha and Essendon or North Melb and Scott at this point in time.

Amazed how Brad Scott has managed to avoid being on the hot seat (least in the media) for a few years now, he has been there long enough for less success than Lyon has held at Freo (least Rosco got Freo into their first ever grand final)

Brad Scott is now in his 10th year as coach and isn't under any pressure to keep his job.

Mick Malthouse in his 10th year as coach of Collingwood was under immense pressure to keep his job and the end result was the succession plan which Eddie drew up to make the transition from Malthouse to Buckley as seamless as possible.

This is despite Malthouse having far better results to that point in time as Collingwood coach than what Brad Scott has to this point in time as North Melbourne coach.

Coach of the Highest score of the round that’s where we at

 

[nurries]

Let’s see how today goes. No need to be negative just yet.

You are right

 

[Channels]

2 reasonable / good years or was or 3? All under Ross.

Into the 25th year of existence this year.

Absolutely disgraceful. Still stuck in the mentality of trades done 15 to 20 years ago...Can't be bothered naming the high profile recruit names. They try and recruit one big player, a saviour, that transforms the whole club. It doesn't work.

Complete and utter shambolic basket case is the club. Heads should roll everywhere. The rot permiates everywhere and is enshrined into their DNA. it's just who they are.

Upper management, coach, health officials, drafting, development, allowing trades to come here and treat the club like a retirement package (No accountability).... I could go on and on.

And I'm not trying to get a reaction, but I say the above to make the following point:

If this was a Melbourne Club, the AFL would be ready to step in about now, ala what happened at Melbourne.

Not a problem.

One game

 

[Black Stripe]

Is this the highest score ever kicked by a side coached by Ross Lyon and/or the biggest winning margin by a side coached by Ross Lyon?

Need Ron The Bear to confirm.

 

[purplearmy]

You are right

Centre clearance dominance, intensity and good running. North did suck though.

 

[gavaniacono]

I think Ross can only fall from here. He should retire and become an enigmatic legend.

 

[WAnchor]

If Fremantle start 4-0, I will perform a circumcision upon myself and that’s a promise

Hope the meat cleaver is poised! Time to make Burger Rings.

 

[E Shed]

Is this the highest score ever kicked by a side coached by Ross Lyon and/or the biggest winning margin by a side coached by Ross Lyon?

No, apparently we kicked more against GWS and Saints used to rack up Cricket scores back in the day.

 

[purplearmy]

I want that hunger in all games. It was lacking the last three or four years.

My favourite part was "2 reasonable / good years or was or 3?"

Good start.

 

[rank and file]

Good stuff Freo,but I have it on authority that they're not going to win a flag until Rank jr plays for them.
Just got to be patient, 5/6 years and you will have something in the trophy cabinet.

This made me laugh.

 

[purplearmy]

The Freo centre clearance dominance was incredible. It was a huge factor.

 

[masai]

Not a problem.

One game

Owen has moved to Lathlain this season.

 

[Purple Jesus]

The Freo centre clearance dominance was incredible. It was a huge factor.

Especially considering half our mids are out and we lost our 'best' and reigning BnF winner from there. Boom!

 

[Blue1980]

Freo morphing into Malcolm Blight era Geelong.

Cam McCarthy is the new Gavin Excel

 

[WilloTree]

I have no problem with Cam Mac being at Freo. He’s been OK in a terrible team during a rebuild. Remember that at GWS he had the most talented mids ever assembled delivering to a forward line where Patton, Cameron, Boyd and Greene required minding by the defence. He will go alright.

I know it's only 1 game, but you're not Noastradamus are you?

he has avoided being on the hot seat for a while due to norths prelims in 2014 and 2015.

 

[The Filth]

Better watch out matey - they should account for the Saints and the Suns and it is not beyond the realms that Freo could cause an upset ala Brisbane in Round 4 against West Coast. (they only lost by 8 points in the corresponding game last year)

Problem is one would have to punch your sister in the mouth to perform a circumcision....and violence against women is right out.

well bugger me, you win this game either way

How goes it 'maniac.
Nice start to the season for you although the Kangas were woeful.
Looks like you finally learned how to score again instead of playing Lyons rope-a-dope game.
(and despite being dudded with the Hogan deal. )
