Are we talking about whether Lyon can coach a premiership now or whether he should replace Hardwick as coach?

Either way, Lyon has the same amount of premierships as Hardwick, has had longer than him to get one and has had more talented teams than what Hardwick has had at his disposal to get one.

I think you both are forgetting what Lyon can bring to the table though, boring defense oriented football

Freo did play with some flair earlier this year, but other than that, I haven't forgotten.

It's always been a dream of mine to watch Richmond win by kicking 10 goals to 5
Imagine the time I can save by having no desire to rewatch such a " goal feast "

Are we talking about whether Lyon can coach a premiership now or whether he should replace Hardwick as coach?



To me the two things are closely entwined
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

I agree, no point getting a coach who hasn't or cant coach a flag to replace someone who hasn't or cant coach a flag.

I agree, no point getting a coach who's won two minor premierships, made three GF's with two different clubs and come to within a bee's dick of two flags to replace someone who can't even come within a bull's roar of an elimination final win after 6 seasons.

BTW - people complaining about Lyon sides being low scoring.....we haven't exactly piled on the goals under Hardwick either....

but that doesnt make lyon the answer to the problem.

saying you dont want lyon is not advocating Hardwick
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Saints DREW a grand final

And you are arguing

There is "nearly no chance", it's possible he can win one

Maybe you new a lie down ?

Stalin,

Do you think Ross Lyon has a more or less relevant game plan and selection strategy today vs 2010 (or even 2012)?
Also, why is his coaching record diminishing in finals series since 2012?
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Lyon can also bring entertaining post match pressers. Does that make any sense? ;D
