Yes I do, I have stated that before, if it was Leigh Mathews, then I would be doing cartwheels.

Roos inherited quite a healthy playing list from Eade, he had two bloody good assistants in Lyon and Longmire, a lot of the clubs were struggling, West Coast was really the only challenger, yes he changed footy by having role players, but he then got out when a rebuild was on the cards and has been away from the 'frontline' for a while......I will reserve my judgement

Do you try and go against the grain on purpose or something? All year you were telling us everything was going to plan when we were clearly up to our eyeballs in dung, then when the best news that we've heard in arguably decades hits, you're the one person going "meh, I'll reserve judgement" when everyone else is doing cartwheels.

Hi Saty glad to see you are still among us.

The big job is still to improve the playing list without that we are not going anywhere fast.

However Roos will give hope to lost supporters/ members and hopefully help acquire a new major sponsor.

If he can make us competitive in 2014 I will be happy.

Everything above that will be a bonus for me.

Yes I am still here OD, had a daugthers wedding, work and a couple of other things, and as I said before nothing much worth talking about or beating myself up over, looking forward to Sunday to see how Casey go......will do my usual preseason watching with interest, just been there done that as far as footy goes...........

How big of a rebuild could it have been if they won a flag a couple of years later? But I too agree with you. I think Roos is way overrated, in that nobody could possibly be as good as what he's been built up to be. Even Jesus had doubts. Buddha took years to figure out the way to enlightenment. And Muhammed...well let's just stay clear of that area all together. I don't want to get blown up.

But all the same, it's #RoosYourDaddy time!

Looks like we might get an assistant coach under Roos wing and led him into the role in 2-3 years time

e.g. (Buckly and Mick)

No it wasn't rose coloured, with the coaches in the last five or six years you had posters on here shouting from the rooftops about how good a decision they were, then when it goes pear shaped, bang denigration etc.......both Bailey and Neeld had plans, which in hindsight, which is a wonderful thing, didn't work...so they paid the ultimate price, wasnt my decision it was the Club's ...........I support whoever is coach/CEO/Footy Manager at the time, if they go, I move on (unlike some)....Roos will have plans.......if they work good, I will support whilst he is Coach.........I just think he is not worth a cartwheel from me at the moment........the Leigh Mathews comment in another post above being tongue in cheek

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
