I cannot for the life of me understand why a person like Garry Lyon cops so much distaste and vitriol. So many screaming "get in there 100% or rack off". There are a lot of people on this forum who think they know what Lyon's skills are, and reckon he is wasting them in the media.

He will not coach because he has said repeatedly that he doesn't enjoy it, and doesn't have the attention to detail.

He will not enter the club at an official level because he hates club politics.

He will do his bit as a pinch-hitter when he is invited in - which has done.

He is not our Messiah.

The stuff he says about our pathetic club is some of the clearest, most concise and clear commentary across the media and we should be grateful that he is in the position he is in.

...he's done a pretty good job of the politics though protecting his mate.

Who has he "protected"?

And he get involved WHEN HE IS INVITED, not sticking his nose in.

There was a major back flip after the Geelong game, he was involved in that. Not interested in the political side unless it suits like most things with Gary.
