Dear Ross Lyon

Dear Ross Lyon,
After the initial disappointment (no, make that downright anger), I thought some more about the game on Saturday night against the Crows, and finally I get it!!!! 
You are playing for the wooden spoon so that you can get all the best draft picks.  'Cause lets face it, half of these players have to go, or at least go back to the VFL until they are physically and mentally fit to play with the big boys.  Some are past their used by date, so why aren't you giving the young ones a go?  Some others have not been pulling their weight or playing the team game. 
I don't know what you see when you watch a saints game, but as a spectator, all I see is a weird sort of slow motion combination of rugby league and b-grade footy (apologies to b-grade footy teams).
I don't know how you can say "don't write them off yet", because it was obvious from the first round game that they were playing badly. 
Saints supporters are used to saying "Oh well, there's always next year", so once again, there's always next year.
