Re: If Not BB, Who? - Lods - 04-19-2019
BTW....I don't really think we should swap our forwards and backs. ;D

Fun fact of the day. In that Saints game they kicked 31.10.196
That 196 points is the largest ever score we've conceeded.
Another fun fact. Not only did fev get 7 goals and BOG from the next match, the match after that he kicked 6, and the one after he kicked 8. 3 weeks in a row he got 6 or more goals and 3 brownlow votes in each game.
Ahh the good old days when results didn't matter and it was all about learning.

Ziiinnnnnggggg.
A review must be done by someone / organisation that is 100% objective and nothing to do with the CFC (whoever did Tiggers and Rottingwood would be the obvious choice). My concern is that we'd get Juddy's buddy (who's now on the Board) to do the review.

Ross Lyon has the Dockers back up the ladder.

Yep. Not sure why he gets a bad rap here. We support the worst side in the comp for the last 20 years. We shouldn't be paying out on anyone.

I'll pay out on Melbourne.
They're worse than we are over the last twenty years although ask me again in two years and it will likely be us.

Yeah for a guy that’s got some pretty average sides to play off in GFs, it is a little odd.
It’s like some on here want to languish at the bottom.
Don’t change a thing it will all come good one day :

Ugly style of football, questionable character, and a knob head in his pressers. And his GF teams were not ordinary.

If it came to a choice between a nice bloke with a beautiful smile who can't win more than a few games a year, and, "Ugly style of football, questionable character, and a knob head in his pressers," I'll take the knob who delivers wins.
Besides I don't mind his media contributions and wry sense of humour; seems to me to be the sort of bloke who has a low tolerance for fools.
Doesn't seem to be coaching 'ugly' any more, reckon Ross has changed his coaching style to suite the modern game, and it's turning out very effective - with a so so side, talent wise.
As for questionable character (guess you're referring to how he left the Aints and his alleged inappropriate comments to a woman at a party) I think that's harsh and over-the-top, who hasn't stuffed up?
Is he for us? Dunno. Maybe, maybe not. Point is, the bloke can coach and coach well.

Should have won one at St Kilda and set them up for a few years, but coached for his record and refused to play or develop the kids..... plus he walked out on them when he realized that he had played his ‘tried and trues’ until they had nothing in the tank, and there were none coming through. (Tom Lynch got sick of waiting and they were happy to see him go)
All about Lyon.

His media moments are cringeworthy, and his coaching prowess is over stated IMO. As for coaching ugly, I guess you missed R2 and R3, which prompted Matt Lloyd to say "gee, you'd hate to be a forward under Ross Lyon", or words to that effect.
As for stuffing up, maybe, just maybe, the incident at the Xmas party counts as that (he didn't handle the aftermath of that too well IMO), but the swapping clubs was simply calculated deceit, not accidental stuffing up.
Sorry, big no from me. If the club insists on a new Messiah, we have to do better than him.
