If he ever gets another game for the Saints, the board should sack Ross Lyon.
Sorry - but haven't we missed the lets bash Raph thread since he has been out.
Had to pick on poor Joey and Gilbo while he was out.
great to have the scapegoat back for the whingers on here

Re: Raph Clarke
Played very well in the 1st Half. Like the rest of the backline had a quiet 2nd Half............Because the ball didn't go down there !!
NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!
Re: Raph Clarke
Actually think the less restrictive, play on type of Watters game will suit Clarke much more than Lyons lockdown type game.
Instinctive type player who should never have to think too much on the footy field, gets hesitant and gets caught with the ball.

Re: Raph Clarke
Agree that Raph will play his best footy under an offensive coach. That's his natural instinct.
Gram has stuck up for Raph on Twitter before, i think.

Re: Raph Clarke
Yep joffa, Ralph's never played a bad game, and Gilbert has dominated this season. Hard to believe we have only won one premiership given every player on our list ever has always been a gun every game ever. Must be the umpires fault.

Re: Raph Clarke
Raph played really well. I think alot of his poor previous form was due to the crap style of Lyon.

your posts are an entire waste of bandwidth, always done in a hit and run style..you should hear what the Moorabbin Wing have said about you..
i don't know how you could ever present yourself in public....shameless individual....

when he plays at sandi , he is clearly a class above that level !
Hopefully his best footy is ahead of him .

Re: Raph Clarke
Agree. For some reason Lyon had him pigeon-holed as a half back flanker and tried to turn him into a close-checking defender. He may finally get a chance to play his natural game under the new regimemr six o'clock wrote:joffaboy wrote:Actually think the less restrictive, play on type of Watters game will suit Clarke much more than Lyons lock down game
