Sam Edmund reporting that there is a chance we retain Teague for next year as we have cooled on Ross Lyon in the past 24 hrs.
im actually okay with this.
the scenario as i see it is this.
1. Clarkson ... and i think even Teague would have to see that would be a preferred option for many reasons
2. Teague with a 12-24 month extension with the priviso of getting the right people around him ... zero point going into next season with only a 12 month contact otherwise the minute we lose ... it will be the feeding frenzy once more (its probably going to be that regardless to be honest)
i have really gone off the Lyon scenario, just dont think he has, nor does he handle the media well ... even listening to him on the radio over the weekend, its concerning. just not the right fit. But most importantly, i doesnt seem a long term solution. I just feel like if we did get a flag in the next 2 years, he would run the club into the ground trying to get another one, and then ship off, like he did at the saints and freo ... im really struggling to want him at the club. It just doesnt feel like a 7 to 10 year affiliation .. and i think its as important we get out of the 2 year cycle as it is, get the right set up.
Get a decent run with injuries, a decent support structure around him etc.. and use the review to have everyone air grievances and move forward in the right direction ... and we might be half a chance. He has a few things to address and if he presents that well to the board and they elect to stick with him, im all for it.
