WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - PAUL ROOS

[Jumping Jack Clennett 1,629]

Whose the source JJC?

Reliable or not?

A friend(knowledgable in Amateur Footy, only, as far as I know), whispered it confidently in my ear.

I had no opportunity to question his sources.

[Kenny Powers 90]

'Reliable rumour' best.line.ever.

[rpfc 27,637]

Why did we not sign up all the assistants on three year contracts like the head coach? That seems a little strange.

Apparently Brown and Rawlings got 2 year contracts when Neeld came on board, and Royal got a three year contract from 2011 under Bailey.

That's the info I have heard.

[Craig Drinker 179]

Is it today that the AFL ratify or reject our assistance package?

[nutbean 8,837]

LOL. Mate. Have you been attending nutbean's seminars on "how to have a successful marriage" again? (Sorry, nutbean!) I don't know too many women who would just move interstate at the behest of her husband without it being a two way decision. Honour and obey died out years ago.

I have many strengths - selecting suitable marriage partners is apparently not one of them.

[DemonOX 8,551]

Is it today that the AFL ratify or reject our assistance package?

Yes would think we will hear either late today or tomorrow on the outcome.

If correct rpfc that is the best news I have heard today.

We have a crap list but if we are to have a new coach it would be good for them to pick their assistants.

Hopefully it's a good result. If so, I think Roos will start to find his apetite for coaching again very quickly!

OD The coach will pick his assistants anyway

I wouldn't think the AFL will release wether we are getting a PP prior to the season finishing.

If we won a few games after it was announced there would be another round of outcry from the other clubs

They might not announce it but if they have made the decision, well as we know the AFL leeks like a sieve.

...couldn't care about the other clubs by the way.

[Ted Lasso 17,123]

even if we win a few games we have been a bottom 4 quality side for 7 years

[mjt 640]

The only winnable game I can see in the run home is the Bulldogs, so that's 3 for the season, that's a paltry return.

At least we are consistent Demonfan!

Round 19 not "winnable"?

[mjt 640]

Round 19 not "winnable"?

If that's the Giants at Blacktown then I think they will start favourites, how can you win games if you can't get the ball inside 50, I was impressed with the Dogs yesterday as well, we will be very lucky to register again this season WJ.

im inclined to side with this. Only caveat is the drier the track the better our chances. Seemed like a couple of wheel fell of the wagon saturday, maybe they can get them back on.

[deanox 8,780]

I love how fickle we are. Put in some effort? We could win 5 more games. Have a poor day? We won't be a chance again!

may I put it to you its not us as such that are fickle.....more so say about 22 odd blokes !!!!

our attitude remains pretty much the same depending on outcome

nevermind they just lost to Sydney by 129 a week after Sydney beat us by 31

[Demonsterative 2,101]

That translates to a 98 point win to us. Bring it on

[angrydee 842]

Can't let the facts get in the way of total negativity.

The same, or close enough to, 22 blokes plagued two teams in two weeks. Week 1 we play Ok, week two we pay poorly.

The difference isn't the players it's the supporters. We extrapolate form from 1 week to the next ten then change our extrapolation based on every data point.

When we played Ok against the dogs and swans people were talking about is winning 4 more games. We get beaten by the cats now we won't win another??

I see a different logic to this.

Same 22 >>> Different performance( effort ) >>>> different outcome>>>>>> different forecast
