No Oppo Supporters St.Kilda sack Brett Ratten

[Sainter88]

McVeigh, Yze...Hird?

I’d rather shit in my hand and clap than have that cuck Hird anywhere near the club lol.

 

[aussierulesrules]

On the contrary…maybe it’s finally the beginning of a new era of professionalism.

This.

 

[stavro#4]

I would take Hird in a heartbeat. Couldn’t give a s**t about his past indiscretions. He’s a competitive beast with ultra high standards.

No. He is a poor excuse of a coach - who nearly ruined the lives of 40 young men.

Shouldn’t even get an interview

The Bulldogs were called a “rabble” by the AFL media when their president made a tough call and sacked McCartney for Bevo late in the year.

It worked out well for them. I see this as a very similar call and let’s hope it turns out the same way for us.

Knowing us. We’ll end up with him.

 

[Verdun66]

We’ll get torched in the media. They are already lining up. But we were getting it anyway for our supposedly feeble trade period etc etc. I feel immune to it now to be honest.

 

[StCicatriz]

We won’t be poaching someone in a senior gig.

What an absolute shit show

 

[PandaG]

So the COO who the footy GM reported to had no say... come off it.

Stop trying to spin it.

I have no idea why you are so triggered by this
We were going nowhere under Ratten
Clearly they have restructured the footy department because of some poor decisions but in the end, Lade and ratts are gone.!!’
It’s time to celebrate not commiserate

It’s the hope that’s going to kill you.

Yeah I'm sure that would be great PR

[Sully111]

Did you want Ratten to be coach?

 

[Diehard Saint]

It’s the hope that’s going to kill you.

So what’s new?

Would cost a hell of a lot more to keep him on if he’s the wrong man.

This is good.

It has to be cleansed.

There has been that much shit since that bounce in 2010.

Let them ****ing torch us and leave no survivors.

Because then, when the green shots starts growing. It will be ****ing real and we can bank on it.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

The timing of the decision will heighten speculation that the Saints may have already set their sights on Ratten’s replacement.

Contenders for the role could include club great Lenny Hayes, who has only just returned to the club as an assistant coach, former Essendon coach James Hird, highly-rated Melbourne assistant Adem Yze and departing GWS assistant coach Mark McVeigh.

New chief executive Simon Lethlean will have to own the decision. As the club’s football boss before taking on the new role, he would have played a role in extending Ratten’s contract when the club surged to a strong start to the season.

Omg if I read Hird once more ffs

 

[DougalHoward]

SEN opening up the lines now to Saints fans. Some w***er called Marcus is kicking things off ......

Who's on sen at this hour??

Miss finey

 

[Mowman]

We obviously have a coach ready to go. Even our club ain’t that stupid. No one could say leatlean hasn’t had an impact.

Our club couldn’t be that stupid ?
Please we are St Kilda we do stupid better than anyone

 

[stavro#4]

It is understood Ratten has failed to survive the Saints’ football operations review, which was headed up by CEO Simon Lethlean and former North Melbourne coach David Noble.

The move also coincides with the appointment of Geoff Walsh - who has put his belief that the club needed change on the public record - as head of football.

 

[tomjoad]

Simon "Satan" Lethlean. CEO and coach. He will finally have achieved omnipotence.

Nah Kevin Sheedy would rock up to St Kilda and turn it into a cult.

 

[Captain Paddy]

GT been awfully quiet on Twitter recently

 

[Drop Kick]

Surely, the players would have been told before this came out.

Unless it was leaked by someone who doesn't agree with the decision.
