He is a nice guy Ratts but he is not what we need going forward. He has no tactical nous of the modern game of AFL. He still thinks that bombing it to the hotspot works. We will never threaten the top 4 with this mentality. This is Richo 2.0.
If we want St Kilda to take the next step we either go for Clarko (but he is going to either GWS or GCS), or more likely, Buckley. You just have to listen to his special comments during the game to realize how good a coach he is. And I get the impression he would love to coach us.
Twelve years in a row of being s*** is just a bridge too far. We as supporters deserve better than this. If I was lethers I would be speaking to Bucks right after this game.
Enough is Enough!!!
St Kilda should never trade with Essendon and Sydney ever again!!!

I can imagine the interview with Bucks.
Leathers: Well Bucks, tell us about your game plan
Bucks: haven't you been listening to my special comments on kayo?
They are both insightful and thought provoking, aimed to give moron supporters the expectation that I could be their clubs next premiership coach.
There's only one rule in the jungle! When the LYON's hungry, he eats!

This is the exact attitude that has ensured that we are the worst club in the history of the VFL/AFL. We need to be ruthless and remove players/coaches that are not good enough. Ratts is a great father figure to the players but as a coach he lacks the nous of the best modern day coaches. Ratts would be great as a director of coaching but not as a head coach

Here we go again
You might accept mediocrity but I don’t. When will we as a club wake up? I think the answer to this is when GT finally cracks it and overthrows the entire board.
The time has come to become ruthless and show the football world we mean business.
Over to you now GT!!!

Okay Ratts is yet to convince many of us that he’s got what it takes, specifically that he lacks a hard edge, but last week you were advocating Clarke as a replacement. Now it’s big red letters and exclamation marks and Bucks.
It reads as random thoughts posted as they emerge.
And the exclamation marks……they add nothing of value to your posts.
If the club is desperate to win it's 28th spoon then yes, it may look to Buckley to help it achieve that aim, if they want to aim higher than that they'll
either stick with Ratten/Rath or look for a coach who has had premiership success.
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

How many premierships has Buckley won as a coach? Can you remind me?
That is irrelevant. He is a great coach and has the tactical genius of the best coaches. Ratts genius is bomb long to the square!!! And has nothing else. A clone of Richo!!!

Your lucky I’m not a mod. You would be gone every time you return after your first post
We have enough grief around here at the moment without Trolls
And I’m tipping you are loving it
I am not a troll and I am not loving it. Ratts was terribly outcoached today. He does not have the tactical nous required to be an AFL coach. We should not renew his contract and we should make a play for Bucks

You’ll be gone soon enough
Why don’t you debate the issue here. Do you think Ratts has tbe nous to coach in the AFL? Or is he a Richo clone with just one gameplan? Pressure and long to the square!
