Well I would be fricken ropable if I was Harvey. Now they are saying on SEN that not only did Lyon approach Freo and not the other way around, but also that Harvey and Lyon have the same management. This just keeps getting better and better!

McChins will not release Malthouse he's made it obvious

Malthouse will not coach anywhere next year.

I cant see it happening I'm really annoyed we hadnt approached Lyon

seeks almost negligent not to have got to him at some point.

Well it seems apparent that the deal between Freo and Lyon has been in the pipeline for 5 weeks, so we probably did approach and got told thanks, but no thanks.

Western Australian Business sweeteners can be very lucrative DD,

Maybe Ross knew it a long time ago.

Apparently he did the deal himself and his management group have sacked him!!!

This seems plausible Kento. Especially with Gazza asking questions of Nettlefold re: contract clauses in a publicly televised FC segment. Maybe out of frustration.

If we have MM signed already then surely Garry Lyon is THE best poker player ever!

Robbo is saying we never spoke to Ross Lyon, quite amazing if true.

Yea, see i kinda recall reading about 248 rumours on this very site about "Lyon spoke to Scully", "Frawley said Scully was locked in", "Trengove said he's best mates and so is Blease" and blah blah blah!

So then i heard the rumours about Lyon - "end of an era", "he has the same management as Gary Lyon", "what an opportunity for a quality list, looking for a veteran seasoned coach!"

Then i hear the rumours about Malthouse - "locked in, that's why Scully's staying", "he likes our list"

EVERY SINGLE RUMOUR HAS PROVEN TO BE WRONG!

i have no faith whatsoever that anything will go right for us until at least 2013, when O'Meara & Viney are playing... (and Malthouse finishes his sabbatical)

No doubt we'll have Peter Rhodes next year!

Alright - we have had all conspiracy theorists on the Scully situation - so whilst this is not a conspiracy theory ..I think it makes sense

Robbo just tweeted that the Dees didnt make an offer to Lyon - didnt get the chance. If that is to be believed...

MFC are one of the two things

1/ Incompetent ; or

2/ Already signed a coach of significance ( read grey haired madman currently still coaching but a damn fine coach)

I suggest that my theory will be proven one way or the other....

Wow, what a turn of events!

Let me tell you, we could do a lot worse than Harvey for coach. I really rate him highly.

He has a good mix of mongrel and teacher, and I have watched the Dockers closely, he was decimated by injuries and but for that, he would absolutely have been top 4 this year in my view.

I think he has really built that list from bottom up in the right way, and had the game plan to take the Dockers all the way.

Unless there is more to why they got rid of him (i.e. lost the players, he's got some other problems), I am definitely keen on him. Very keen.

Because Eddie believes it is totally immoral for a coach to walk out on a contract. Totally unethical to be poached by another club whilst still in the employ of another club.

Remind me if Malthouse still had a year to run at the Eagles before the Pies got into his ear ?

If Malthouse wants to coach elsewhere he will coach elsewhere.

BOOM!! What I was alluding to earlier.

Why would we not make an offer to Lyon... that is just mental! I think we might have someone already!

I know it's all just speculation, but I want to believe we didn't approach (if that is the case) because there was no need- not because we're fools.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
