Gee thats poor.
Freo had a shocking run with injury, they played good football when they had their full team on the park. Dont think any other coach in the league could have done better

agreed 100%

Wow pretty shocked by this one, Ross Lyon's name gloated as replacement I guess?

[Media Park]

I thought he'd done a good job with them, and deserved a couple more years...

[Thiele]

Reckon Sumich will be named soon

[Media Park]

Reckon Sumich will be named soon

Media conference scheduled tomorrow to name the new coach.

Obviously planned for a while if they can announce a coach so soon...

[Barto]

Word is he was over ruling the medical staff.

[howzat]

very hard on him with the side he had this year.... but they have underachieved big time with the sides they have had over his 4 and a half years and we all know what happens rightly or wrongly when a club dont have some sort of success......

[Media Park]

Pretty hard to do well with one ruckman, mostly one forward (until the last two years) that also played in the mids, and a negligible defence...

But he was making it work....

[Mr Beefy]

Word is he was over ruling the medical staff.

Probably wouldn't have been able to put a team on the park if he didn't

[The Sleeping Giant]

If Barto's mail is correct, then it's fair enough.

[saintal]

On face value, a remarkable decision. Need more info I think.

[Thiele]

Lyon has quit could he be the new Freo Coach

[gadj1976]

what the hell? What a strange evening. Don't we love silly season?

[howzat]

i have heard of mad monday but mad thursday lol 2 coaches in as many hours.....

[Media Park]

Lyon to be named Fremantle coach tomorrow.

Karl Langdon said that the club and Harvey had differing ideas on getting Mitch Clark to the club, vs that 17yo WA lad who's supposed to be a superstar. He thought (30mins ago) that Eade would be the man. Now it seems it's pretty obvious..... but I'll wait for the announcement before making further comment.
