Death of Ross Lyon football - now with exciting grammar debate

[Freomaniac]

Ross the Boss is up to his old tricks again with 9 goals against NORTH! How on earth are they in the 8 at the moment, it wouldn't surprise me if they lost the last 5 games. They'd be doing us all a favour.

Can you Admit that Ross Lyon is an undead zombie? lol

He does appear to have mellowed this time around, more like a Zombie from Shaun of the Dead? The style of footy played by the Saints in recent weeks has me believing they may not win another game this year?

 

[jj1978]

Ross Lyon had you lot fooled in that 1st month of footy lol

He spent that first month trying to beat the Ratten out of them.. they could only resist for so long.

 

[NetworkNerd]

Should be sacked and replaced with Harvey/Hayes if they lose this week

 

[Freomaniac]

What time does the debate start?

Right now if you want.

 

[Freomaniac]

I agree with you. I had them tipped for a big slide next year but with Lyon I think they are a sneaky chance for the eight.

Going to be god awful to watch though.

good call... Saints made finals.

I love how in his press conferences he bemoans the way Saints play as if he isn't the architect of it all

Great coach apparently.

Enjoy Mad Monday Cats fans, the Saints have got finals to play.

If you had maybe won more than just the single premiership, I'd care a little.





Celebrating another flag just last year, all the while in my prime as a young adult, I'm quite content to sit this one out and watch the Saints choke another finals campaign away



Please don't bitch and moan about the umpires Plugger. That is all I ask of you. For the next 3-5 months, just let it go.

He should be Judged only what he does on the field, not off it. lol

Gavin Excell , The 747 and JackFlash , do you agree? lol

Ah yes, the classic deflection. You were called out on dismissing Ross then try to defend yourself with the club's flag history. You really put some thought into that.

Yeh but Monga, this isn't about me or yourself, it's about the football club in question and clearly there's a section of the community who really rate him very highly. In fact, quite a few on here label him 'great', and he's far from it.

 

[Freomaniac]

The Great Enemy of Football disguised himself early in the year with fast attacking play. Now the cloak is off and we get the pure hate for the scoring game oozing through this St Kilda side.

funny thing is go look at how much points the saints average in attack lol

back in the real world...

I agree.

Is Ross Lyon is a good coach? Yes he is.

A great coach? Debatable.


Then again, My standards are lower than yours. I am realistic.

18 teams in the comp. 8 teams make finals and 10 teams dont.

He's an old school defensive minded coach who gets the best out of his players.
You can expect this same playing style to be present if he's still around in 3 years time. I doubt St Kilda ever become a spectacular team to watch. They can bring in Curnow & Cameron and they would still average 80 points a game.
Even we had arguably one of the finest lists of all time in the late noughties, they played a rather stale and ultra-defensive style which was ultimately their undoing against the complete opposite of Collingwood, Geelong and Hawthorn.

Now THAT I agree with you. Although within a bees d*ck of two premierships playing like that, we had one of the best attacks of the decade and could've done mass damage. But those Cats were just an epic team.

 

[gutsroy]

Aah, Jesus, I got caught up in the grammar wars, had forgotten about this

Heard there was a debate but I see there isn't one currently in progress. Please tag me if one recommences. Thanking you in anticipation of your assistance citizen.

Where are my bloody hand cuffs? LoL

 

[Freomaniac]

May the Fraud never be seen near another club again

Not all clubs can have never ending father sons to make list management a breeze

Big fan of RTB
Good luck in the finals saints

You are not accusing of Geelong of inbreeding just like the South Australian people? LoL
