There's not much more that can be done with it though, there's no prefix higher than a vintage, and there's no badge that's appropriate for such a thread.
It shouldn't even have a vintage tag, its a shit thread that could be made about any coach besides Clarkson.

Just because plugger bumps it after every loss in an attempt to deflect from his own club's pitiful existance doesn't make it special.

If this is vintage then a "hows hardwick" made in 2009 should have it's own forum.

Won't happen. Ross Lyon gets to rebuild freo under his own image. You saints idiots on the other hand will blame ross Lyon on your teams effort of scoring 3 fluke goals vs the eagles.

Lyon could be in a coffin for 20,000 years and your mob will still won't win a flag. Yet you still will blame ross Lyon
not saying its right or wrong, but it sounds like theyre backing in ross and identifying the list management as the problem area

brad lloyd looks to be copping it in the neck

So Ross lyin is to blame? What drugs are you on? Lyon hasn't touched your club on 5 years.
The damage runs deep. Your lot are just starting to find out. 5 years at the Saints, and this is his 5th year at Freo. You think Freo will recover completely in 5 years if he was gone at the end of the season. Thats the thing with stalwarts and non plastice franchise of the Afl. Saints have battled on and are getting it. Chances are Freo will be the Cockburn seconds in 5 years after he's finished.

I would like to take the time to thank Plugger35 and Defacto on their time and effort keeping Freo as a topic to be discussed on the Bay. Apart from Benwah83 and his magnificent sticky thread, page one here in the bay is
lacking when it comes to Freo threads.

Cheers lads.

Recruiters have more to blame than ross Lyon. I have stated to you many times.... When it came to the recruiting under the ross Lyon era our philosophy was grab the best available at the 1st pick then get the best kpp or swingman with the 2nd pick and that has had mixed results.

How freo will get can McCarthy. I don't know.

You are going to have a team full of shifty-eyed turncoats?

What you will learn is that his 'own image' is a replica of the 2005 Swans Bloods Grand Final. Lyon's true dream is to win a flag 1pt to nil in extra time after a nil-all draw in normal time and to do it with as many 'role players' as possible. That is his 'own image'.

I guess after the Freo Board, having already foolishly signed up Lyon until 2020, decided it was easier to point the finger elsewhere than to face the facts that Lyon is pathologically unable to build a list and adapt to modern football. Freo will have to learn the hard way. It is going to be very very ugly. Lyon will exposed for the fraud he is.

You could always petition Chief, the greatest Admin in history to pin it to the top of the Freo board.
Wouldn't need to, I can plonk it there myself*.
