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 ?

Saints bottom 6 cost him a GF in 2009/10. Hence why he left in 2011 when he eloped to Freo.
Without them he may have gone back to back and had a show in 11 and 12 also given he had more quality in the bottom 6-8 of his 22 and the top end talent at his disposal.

Would barely do better with us given our bottom 6.

Model is Hawthorn. They have depth and culture. Lose a bloke like Suckling replace him with Hartung.
Hale retires Ceglar ready made replacement.
Lake goes Shoenmakers easily can fill the void.

If anything our scoring will diminish further under Lyon and our bottom 6 will be our Achilles heel.

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?


Freo finished first, on premiership points

So ,  i think it's fair to conclude, lyon still has some idea

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

Lyon can also bring entertaining post match pressers. Does that make any sense? ;D
Although he doesn't talk about his performance between the sheets like Dimma does! :snidegrin

Maybe because he is a Lyon by name a lion by nature and lyin by definition.

Would lyon have played Newman. Grigg. Chaplin. Hampson?

It's not like our scoring is like bayern Munich currently . I doubt we'd kick many less goals

Would richmonds defence improve under Lyon?


The weakest handful of players in the 22 are already the bulk of the problem. So on that front, it'd be no different in regard to what your sayin

Lyon finished 1st H&A and then finished 3rd.
Dimma finished 5th H&A and then finished 7th.
Both have struggled to win when it counts in recent times.
“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.

I think Lyon is a good coach but his team has a huge home ground advantage for all but 2 games during the H&A season.....

And yet our coach can take a team over there and win.

They also have to travel every second week.

Lyon has actually overachieved with his sides IMO. Had St.Kilda punching way above their weight and Fremantle are carried by half a dozen stars and a freak of a ruckman - the rest are just foot soldiers and few are downright hacks. Talent-wise, their list balance is not much better than ours....if anything we have more young talent coming through...

was talking about this exact thing on GF day. The guy is a gun to do what he has with those lists. Imagine if he had a forward like a straight kicking cloke or jack.
