Once again, i didn't post that comment to suggest that I think the best way to win a flag was by strangling teams, simply that it has been done before.
In fact, it backs up my thoughts that going to a Ross Lyon or Paul Roos type of coach at richmond is not the answer.

Yet he's come within a combined total of fourteen points of winning two flags...denied by a flukey toe poke, a blatant poster that was called as a goal before we had goal reviews and an errant bounce in the goal square.....both against sides that were red hot favourites...

He's also had 2 sides that were/are chock filled with talent.
Clarkson would've had 2 flags by now.
Bottom line, he's gone backwards in the past 2 years - they've gone backwards in the last 12 weeks since Richmond handed there arse to em.
No, Freo are gone and the Lyon sympathisers have to stop looking through rose coloured glasses.

You got me. My identity is revealed. I am Dimma and this is my futile attempt to save my job from the marauding Ross Lyon from taking over.

Hardwick is here for 2016. No point talking about coaching change now. I'm going to back him for now. If he fails (no finals success) he is out I would have thought.

There is no point getting the lynch mob out now. It will be futile. Save your energy for 2016 as it may be required. :whistle

Why wait a year? Has three finals losses in a row. Why waste 12 months to deliver the same result or worse still missing out completely? 

Three times in a row.

Who here would go fishing three times on a row at the same spot with no results, and think 'yeah, I'll go back there again because that's the best chance I'll have of success'

Staying on another year has no logic whatsoever. The guy is a ch0de

The same thing will happen and then you all will be like 'we should have ditched him years ago'

Stuffing lmao

Do you really think the club will sack him before the season starts? That's what I'm getting at. It won't happen now so save your energy.
Also I didn't say we had to wait a whole year. If we are 3 and 12 next year he'll be goneski.

He's also had 2 sides that were/are chock filled with talent.
Clarkson would've had 2 flags by now.

Great point - if we were comparing Lyon to Clarkson, instead of Hardwick.

Hmm...so the minor premiers went backwards? Interesting theory....did they lose top spot? Did they go out of the finals in straight sets?....and didn't they play us again since we "handed their arse to them" by a thumping  27 points ....how'd that turn out?  Tell me, what exactly have the Hardwick sympathisers got to hang their hats on?

but what's the point of replacing him with someone whose game style has a low chance of winning premierships?

dont get me wrong, I'm not defending Hardwick, I just dont think Lyon, or his style,is the answer.

Hawthorn are a very defensive side too. There are different forms of defending

Press

Zone

Flood

Pointing and yelling at rance grimes vlastuin to try harder

By kicking at a very high level - maintaining possession - that is a form o defence

Like a well drilled hockey outfit or spainish football team. You can't concede a goal, if you hve the ball. With th me exception of troy Chaplin


  With st Kilda, Lyon had a pretty dynamic forward like

If freo kicked smart goal better they could have won one. Fyfe at chf just about got the the line
