Have st kilda lost the plot? in relation to the board and its decisions?



specifically im talking about how they sacked a coach that took them to the finals the last 3 years (grant thomas),and appointed ross lyon who has turned out to be a dud who has brought a style of play to the club that is ugly,deffensive and not a blue print to win grand finals. plus sacking a successful coach over personal reasons show how un-profesional the board and president are.what are your thoughts?agree/disagree?

i do agree i think it was a mistake sacking grant Thomas and i do think that ross lyons style of play is very ugly as a true st kilda fan i think they really need to stop sacking the coaches and just blody let one stick it out for a while like i thought they would do with thomas, i find the last 3 years just pointless know because the players are forced to start a new style of football whe they where only just getting the hang of thomas's style. i think the media realy should of left the battle between presisant and former coach it just had no possitive effect on the club and was between them not everyone else... i do think butters is a tool and we really need a better president i think the power got to his head... but come on the saints we will win another flag oneday.. hopefully..
there is all sort of trouble in the club which will cause problems during the season like a 100pt whipping coming up on sunday night
Although I think that Ross Lyon hasn't done much so far its proven that its only very rare occasions when a team who has a new coach achieves anything much in the first year.

Grant Thomas did more than take them to 3 finals series, he also helped get the 'culture' at the club in a more positive direction.

Now he has gone we have the culture being determined by Butterss which is a mistake. I think that the entire board should be re-elected, possibily even taken over by this "Spirit of '66 ticket" hanging about.


I think the St Kilda football club would benefit from moving out to Casey Fields with a new board. Although they may spend another 3-4 years re-building, in the long run I think they will benefit. Although I like Moorabin as the spirital home I think its getting to the stage where you need to have a training venue which isn't in the state of Moorabin, Arden Street etc.

The big names of the football world train at facilties which are a world above Moorabin.


As much as I hate to say it (as a Saints fan), its time to move on from Moorabin and onto bigger and better things.
