I noticed the other post topic for this won't open for many as a few hundred have "viewed" and no one has commented.

It was great to read he was back in there helping out on the weekend and will do for the rest of the finals series.

Great read !!!!! so nice to read the positive comments about Ross Lyon and the rest of the footy club.

it was mentioned on radio and and it was denied by one of the players. glad that he is back for the finals. it should be a help for the other coaches.

and yeah it was a good read!

Also puts to bed all those that attacked Lyon over Elshaug going.......implying that there was something negative in it rather than "personal reasons".

Lyon is a class act.

I'd love it if you changed your av pic!

It was sort of funny the first time I saw it on TV, but having to see that on here everytime you post just annoys me!

Any chance of you changing it to something positive?

PLEASE

Sometimes you get the impression that assistant coaches aren't really so passionately involved with the club. As if they merely do it on a professional level (or a work experience level) without any emotion.

So it is great to see that Ross's right-hand-man feels passionate enough about St Kilda to come out of 'retirement' and give us a helping hand when it really matters most.

I agree, with elshaug and SOS it has been implied that Ross is difficult to work with, when the reasons given at the time were the truth

Media can't understand the Truth- they are used to looking for conspiracy theories where there aren't any.

to me the Saints have been prone to telling the truth or nothing...

One of the real footy stories of the year and says a lot about our club and our coach.

Maybe he wrote all the stuff that was on the computers that got nicked?

and if you heard Ross on the On the Couch, he also stated that he was ready to play even up to the time of being in the rooms on firday night. is he not allowed to change his mind at the last minute?

It also sounded like Bakes pulled the pin and not Ross anyway.
