Lyon The Tip To Coach Saints, Ross Lyon
The Saints had their big three with Longmire, Bond and McKenna. But leaping over them to get the Saints coaching spot is rumoured to be Ross Lyon.
The former Fitzroy player has coached at various teams and, like Longmire, is currently an assistant to Roos at Sydney.
There could be an official announcement today.
While a Lyon was tipped as a possible coach, it was originally thought Gary Lyon was a chance.
Ross Lyon played with Roos at Fitzroy and nearly went to Sydney to play with him, but the Swans didn't have salary room to add Lyon.
After a short time playing with Brisbane, Ross Lyon went into coaching. He assisted Walls, Pagan and Roos.
Lyon will be looking to bring Sydney's success to the Saints, his first task could be adding a ruckman as that is where the Saints struggle.
