Saints lose and it's an honourable loss against a genuine contender, Saints win and it's hailed as a win against the odds.

Which is why we need Ratts to get on camera and say "Ross is just full of shit"

Honestly what on earth would Ross Lyon know about premierships anyway

Well, he was on the panel when the Swans won one. He got that group of degenerates about as close as humanly possible to a flag.

I don't mind Ross.

As much as we do? He grew up a Carlton fan if I'm not mistaken...

I vaguely remember an interview some time back where he alluded to this and how he wanted Kosi to play chf just like Mark McClure did.

Maybe Ross is applying for the Carlton job through the media??? :yikes:

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind him either. Just having a stab at St Kilda's chronic lack of success.

Maybe he's just sick of talking about that girl and other non-football
matters. Throw the press a bone and hope they leave you alone.

I reckon he was speaking the God's honest truth. :smoking:

Ditto

I reckon Lyon knows what he's talking about regarding CFC's prospects for the flag this year.

Interesting words.

I guess he is having a half way bet.

If we drop off a bit and Ratts gets the boot. He will be right up the top of our list.

Not the kind of fellow to continue with the malcontents/ criminals down at St. Kilda, if better options are available.

I could only see us looking for an experienced coach - Malthouse (great mate of Swan), Roos (Supported Carlton as kid, will only come to Melbourne for Top$$), Lyon (Previously been at Carlton, great mates with Silvagni), Woosha (Previous Carlton experience, only come to Melb for top$).

If Ratts and Kernahan can't get the job done, maybe Lyon with Silvagni can. With a new President.

Silvagni interest in Carlton will grow as his boys get closer to draft age.
Wouldn't be right to win a flag without a Silvagni, we need him back in some capacity.

Kernahan, Silvagni, Bradley, Williams have to become as together again.
