Ross Lyon has reportedly been sacked by the Fremantle Football Club, effective immediately.
AFL Nation commentator and SEN regular Tim Gossage suggested that both Lyon and CEO Steve Rosich have left the club.
"The mail is very strong that Steve Rosich and Ross Lyon are both gone from the Fremantle Football Club," he told SEN's Whateley.
"Unconfirmed but I think you can take it to the bank.
"Ross Lyon will see the payout, he has no other job to go to, these are reports we're hearing.
"Players and staff have been told."
Saturday’s loss to Essendon confirms that the Dockers will miss finals for the fourth straight year.
Lyon is contracted until the end of 2020.
Channel 7’s Mark Stevens reported earlier that Lyon and Rosich could be on the way out.
