WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - PAUL ROOS

[mjt 640]

One thing next year will mean all bad results are purely on the players. Roos has the runs on the board. He could easily explain at a press conference that the playing group are spuds and we will all nod and agree as well as the media. Are you sure you want that Mr Watts? The days of being unsure if our coach is any good are over.

We know the players are spuds, Craig has expressed that without showing cruelty, PR needs draft assistance and the list turned over, he knows whats required hes been watching this basket case all season, hes got a big job ahead but im upgrading my family memberships immediately if he gets a gig.

Nathan Jones would still play just as well if I was coaching him. That is his character. Watts wants to hide behind not being developed right and looked after. There might be something to it but 2014 is the time for no more hiding.

And if he cannot perform now we can, as a club, move him on knowing we have done our best

Seven News saying Roos offered 5 years at $1.5mil per year. Bargain.

[dazzledavey36 53,226]

Mark Stevens on 7 news basically said its a done deal. 1.5mil for 5 years.

Hold on while i go pump some jizz out.

Yep. Watts is a scapegoat for this list. He has talent but seems to be missing a piece in the puzzle. WIth Roos no one will question the coach. Malthouse at Carlton is the perfect example. Ratten had the blues in the same position last year and got the ass. Now the playing list is being looked over and talk of a re build is happening. How many times have we questioned Bailey/Neeld and Co? Roos gives us time, respect and a place in the toughest sporting market in the country. Our players would love the feeling that they are being thought of first. It's about winning games from here on out. Thank you PJ. We as members don't want blazers, heritage or whiteboard wednesday's. WE WANT WINS!

First order of business: Tell Jack Watts he can't have players under his command that have a non-committal attitude, and as such he will be traded for the best midfielder available

Second order of business: Appoint Nathan Jones captain with Grimes and Trengove as his VCs.

Anyone got a link to the Demon side Paul Roos put in the Herald Sun a couple of months back?

Would be interesting to have a look now.

Question mark in front of Jamar, suspect Gawn would make his way into that list in that spot if he wrote the article now.

For the life of me, I cannot understand those who want to pour cold water on this. Great news is great news. I'm sure they're will be plenty of opportunities to have a whine down the track. But ffs, let's have some cheer when it's been so lacking. Go Dees.

In the event we are left standing at the altar waiting....... we reserve the right to be skeptical until he arrives... but this is looking more liklely by the minute.

Do you remeber exactly what was said?

got a text message from my Dad saying " Paul Roos is going to be coaching your mob next year, congratz "

[Hannibal 5,814]

MJT, are you not stoked? I am.

Why do you care what he thinks ?

[keep13alive 78]

I feel like Richmond too scared to utter the F word.Hope is an amazing intangible.

[cowboy_from_hell 2,390]

I know it is just a coach and it doesn't mean over night success. But we have been down and out. Jurrah,energy watch,tanking,schwabb,Bailey,186,Scully,Stynes(RIP),2012-13 on field. Man it feels good to support this team today.

[waynewussell 4,948]

Cowboy.... I like your way of puttin' things!

[mjt 640]

Why do you care what he thinks ?

This coming from the most despised clown on Demonland.

[mjt 640]

MJT, are you not stoked? I am.

I am stoked RTG, but next year will be a hard slog no matter whos in the box mate.

[Hannibal 5,814]

If that is true I couldn't care less. Although, I suspect you'd give me a run for my money if it was the case.

Btw, not that you're smart enough to realise, my post wasn't a shot at you. I'm not invested in the emotions of any poster on Demonland and aren't sure why others would be, hence the question.

But yeah, you're too thick to realise.

I think we all know that, mjt, but this time there's a bloke in charge (nearly) who's been there.

Hang in there.

He knows how to build the ultimate dream.

Neither Grimes or Trengove should be Vice Captains at the moment.

[Return to Glory 8,394]

Um, I dunno ,it's a forum. Based on your logic, don't post again.

[Ted Lasso 18,905]

Any more actual news on Roos?

[Ouch! 2,215]

I'm just pleased I got on Roos @ $2.25 a couple of months back

[bing181 9,113]

t im upgrading my family memberships immediately if he gets a gig.

You have a family?

_{Would be a great fathers day gift, PAUL ROOS announced as the new MFC coach.}

_{O the dream which will hopefully become reality.}

[DemonOX 8,732]

Can u imagine when or if he does become coach how big this thread will be.

Could be a record me thinks.
