Apparently Soups met with the board after the poor performance and it was all over.

Hmmm, I'm an avid saints fan and that doesn't surprise me at all. Maybe it's time for a change down there. There's nothing worse than unrealised potential and that's what we have currently. This could all work out for the better or turn the saints administration into disarray like it was only a few yrs back.

About time.
Too much talent in that team for the results they have gotten.

Probably Mark Harvey who is currently assistant or John Longmire also currently assistant. Mark Thompson must be feeling pretty lucky.

bah saints team bit over-rated i think.
i don't think he deserved it at all. bit drastic. if they had won first round finals, but say they went out next round, do you think they'd still have sacked him?

harsh but true, he was a game away from keeping his job. I say get Stewie Lowe and Nicky Winmar in the box and Dal Santo as capt., they'll whip their arses into a grannie for sure

it was a matter of time before they got rid of him.
he built a decent squad and its unlucky he didnt achieve a whole lot with them. he brought the saints from a cellar dwellar to a victorian force with the good pickups in drafts gone by.
he just didnt know how to manage the players to well on the field and was unlucky to cop serious injuries to key players every year!
i think mark harvey would be good for them. his been in the coaching caper for a while now and is the brains behind freo's rise me thinks
