Would you think those boys might be in contract and we can't blow up the soft cap just yet?
I'm unsure if Gags is culpable for the lack on interest shown in StKilda but l do think he's been very good with contracts and TPP and can stay in the fold in that capacity whilst and when we get a gun list boss.
Rath, l dunno what he does TBH.


Rath is a strategist that oversaw one of the shittest most dated strategies ever devised and had no plan B.

Gags has been good at contracting players at lower rates than they expected but rumours that he has poor relationships with some players and probably hasn't been good at trading players out at the same kind of currency as we spend to get the equivalents in. Also have lots of structural holes and didn't balance the age profiles of the list.

I've heard that Gags was one in the sights in the Noble report too. Not sure of the accuracy.

Perfect so it will be the rude 10 hanging around the bar all night thinking she is better than you.

And then when you wake gloriously the next morning with half her ass cheek out of your doona and her hand still in a fondle grip of your balls - you know you are the real deal.
 
Hasn’t been this pumping since we recruited Tom Lee & Adam Saad & the Pelican was on fire with his two for one deals.

Will this be the first time a coach has returned to their former club since Parkin?

And has it ever happened prior to that?

First time since Parkin.

Prior to that it has happened a few times:

Charlie Sutton was sacked as Footscray coach after 1957 and 1968.

Bill Stephen resigned as Fitzroy coach in 1957, returned in 1965 before resigning again in 1970, then returning again in 1979 before retiring in 1980.

John Kennedy resigned from Hawthorn in 1963 and returned in 1967.

Bob Rose was sacked by Collingwood in 1971 and returned in 1985 before retiring in 1986.

Alex Jesaulenko resigned as Carlton coach in 1979 and returned as coach in 1989 before being sacked in 1990.

Tony Jewell was sacked by Richmond after 1981 and 1987.

Looks like Ross is signed, sealed and delivered, probably won't be announced until later in the week just so it looks like we have gone through a process.

They won't be interviewing anyone else though if he's agreed to take the job and all signs are that he has, it's exciting to think what he could do for us.

Eeny meeny miny....Ross Lyon. Is in fact a process.
