What's the difference? Sando was a kick away from an away prelim GF berth. Pyke got us there from 2 home finals that resulted in embarrassment . I don't remember such a shit show under Sando's tenure.

How far backwards have we gone.
Dean Bailey......

Come on now. Pyke led the team to their first GF in 19 years and has at least shown some semblance of a game plan. Sanderson was a complete fraud who was shown up when Bailey was suspended. As farcical as that was, it at least exposed Sanderson.
 
I want to see how many threads he starts before the end of the night!

Does 4 sound right? Had we not been reamed against the Hawks, Sando would have taken us to a GF as well. Does that make you uncomfortable? Sando got sacked, was he the coach of a worse program than the untouchable Pyke?
 
When he started to struggle I thought it would be an injustice if Sanderson was sacked before Trigg was. That said; With time I realised that, much like certain disgraced politicians, the problem isn't that Sanderson was treated harshly, it's that he was treated appropriately and other failing club staff were/are let off easily.

I think Sanderson may have been content to cruise thinking the draft sanctions would shield him from analysis. Pyke hasn't had the chance to demonstrate such behaviour, or given any indication he would

Only thing Sanderson got right was we got M.Crouch, party time at his house.......
 
Pyke has flaws but he has done so much right in us getting to the GF last year, in only his 2nd year with us. Not to mention the year from hell with what happened in 2015 and then Danger leaving us, Pyke took over a club that had so many question marks.

Sando did not have the same level of excuse Pyke had when taking over the reign as head coach. The other thing is that under Sando, we never had such a despicable injury record (compared with 2018) in the years he was coaching.

Sando wasnt sacked due to his coaching alone, but if you REALLY want to go into it and continue your vendetta then let's do that.

Sando had a fully fit list in 2012, a list who were always going to 'spike' under a new coach. We had a ruckman on top of his game and a midfield that had the best ball winner in the league.

We also had a pre-knee Tex and Tippett having his best year. JJ and Lynch were playing reserves footy.

Forget the prelim for a sec, we WOULD have played in a GF if we didnt get embarassed at home by Sydney who were our bunnies at the time, and it took a masterclass from Tex the next week to even get us to a prelim.

So continue on your little vendetta, it's quite a shame really as you're a good poster most of the time.
