No just me speculating. It's a "sudden" departure and Lyon is known to be hard to work with if you don't fall in line.

I like what I saw of Mitch Owen. He knows how to use his body to take a mark. Has a quiet confidence about himself.
Great pick up at pick 31 in 2021 draft , his played 7 games last year, and 7 this year.
His a real talent.
the ones you mentioned BT have been fantastic pickups. I can't believe how good Wood is playing now. I really do wonder what has changed it around ? He looked like he had all the physical attributes and talent to make it at North, but never seemed to make it consistent.
I am almost tempted to say Cody has been a good pickup. Hangon.. stats show, he has he kicked 2 goals against us, the only team which his kicked multiple goals. and 7 hitouts in that game

The switch to defence has worked wonders for Wood. Another in the Liam Jones mould who had all the hype as a forward but has made their craft in defence.
I was keen on Mason after his delisting.

Mason Wood is playing more a wing role but absolutely killing it.

Re: St Kilda
MASON Looked pretty good for 3 quarters , took some good marks and kicked a goal
He is a good mark has the height and strength to hold a contest, looks like has ability to run.
Even Liam stokker is starting to perform at afl level
The saints should have won that game except for the 2 errors:
- kicking into dixon
- 2 mins to go constantly bombing into the fwd line. Membrey was very frustrarted when he had 2-1 contest
Ports kicking to keep posession was on my wish list for us.

Just as well since many of their early picks have been disappointing.
However Jack Steele doesn't belong on that list. Pick 24 (academy pick) for GWS and traded to St Kilda for a second round pick because the giants had crazy midfield depth back then.

Weirdly, Jack Steele really really wanted to stay at GWS. They pushed out the wrong mid considering who they lost after him

Re: St Kilda
This is pretty funny. Phillipou does look like a lazy bust at the moment.
After a six-point loss to Hawthorn on Saturday that left the Saints only percentage above the bottom four, Ned Costello ? a director at Sports Minded, which looks after Phillipou ? took to X the following day.
?@davidking34 tell me who in the forward line has improved under Lyon? (Mitch) Owens, (Max) King, phillipou have gotten considerably worse under Lyon. When they came in young and just played they looked exciting. He is destroying them,? Costello posted on early Sunday afternoon.
The post was deleted shortly after and Costello?s X account no longer exists.
