    Lyon has a lot to answer for.

    Having seen the defensive mindset that Ross Lyon has left imbedded in the Swans midfield, he appears to have done the same thing with the whole StKilda side.

    The fact that from the first bounce StKilda had 18 defenders on the ground, spoke volumes of the blight that this one coach is on the game of Australian rules football. Will the Fat Controller speak out against a Melbourne based coach though?

    It was interesting to observe that the Saints fans at the game were no happier after the game than the Swans fans who had just seen their team being beaten by the worst case of flooding they had ever seen.

    The Saints fans should have been happier.

    They won.

    The Saints did what they had to do to win, and it worked.

    Perhaps the fans weren't very happy because they wanted to go and see a spectacle, which is what we all want, but we don't really get as often as we used to.

              Lyon is coaching the Saints as if they were the Swans! Riewoldt and Kosi are almost wasted with their current game plan!

                  I would like to direct the coaching staff of both the Swans and the Saints to the Bulldogs/Crows match today to see how footy should be played. Well done to the Crows and the Bulldogs for giving me genuine entertainment as opposed to the rubbish last night.

                    How great to see Brad Johnson win his 300th match off his own boot?

                      Excellent game of footy. However, it's too complicated for the likes of Roos and Lyon to follow.

                        Ross Lyon is a Paul Roos Mini-Me. Kind of Jean-Paul Sartre, where the simulacrum becomes more than you than you actually are these days.

                        Lyon knows us back to back. Hence why last night was such an arm-wrestle.

                            So Lyon won us a premiership?

                              Article from Rohan Connolly - virtually saying our season is over. Similar comment to what Mr Dementriou uttered not so long ago. Maybe we will get invigorated.
                              I would love to see a game where we smash a team like Hawks did to Melbourne yesterday.
                              Love those Swans
