I have left the ground hoarse for many years , from Moorabbin to Waverley to the Dome even when we would win one or 2 games a year but as time goes by you become a bit cynical , it was fun to have that blind faith, now I leave the ground hoarse form shouting my anger at incompetence. Just the way it...

The absolute best thing for Westaway to say. We should have faith in the most diligent coaching appointment process in our history. Tim Watson, Blight, :shock: :shock: The man does not need to be looking over his shoulder for the knives coming whilst he builds a competitive team for the next decade...

With all due respect Krabb I think you are underestimating the value of coaches to be able to motivate.

Stability is the cornerstone of premierships and its good to hear Westaway say this. On reflection though do you guys really think that by saying this he is actually guaranteeing Ross the job for 10 years? Could it be that a football club president backs the coach in public and then later gets rid ...

Nope. Never heard of it. But I've only been around footy clubs since 1976 so I could have missed it. :wink:

But in that light I'll forgive you. :wink:

Some people have been saying "Oh St Kilda, whenever there's a crisis, everyone turns on the coach..." Erm, here's something to consider - how many people here wanted to see Grant Thomas sacked at the end of 2006? Rod Butterss, B4E and that's about it. As for Ross Lyon, his passionless bra...

D Day for Cockroach.

If the Saints don't come out and absolutely smash the dees after our terrible performances of late then we must clean out the coach. Simple as that really, I'm not talking about the tactical side of things although that is another issue, from an attacking side to a totally bewildered one, I'm talkin...

There's already too many ahead of us in the queue Fireman. To tank from here would rip whatever spirit is left in the group. If we were to finish bottom 4 I reckon Mr Westaway might courier a DCM over to the coaches box too. My fear is we'll finish 9th, find reasons to justify it, and nothing will ...
