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: 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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
