Staying On the Couch until the end of the year. Who else is going to watch that a little more closely than before?

"AFL's a tough game if you want to be successful and WE want to be successful."

The man is gold.

Any word on assistants and FD staff?

PJ said there will be a pile of applicant on his desk this arvo thanks to Roos

but Roos said he can't offer anyone jobs when he doesn't have one - (do I need to be reading between the lines?)

"We need to get some midfielders."

No [censored]. I could have told you that.

Did I hear him imply there was a new sponsor?

He accidentally drop give the 'new sponsor' some vision just than?

I'm feeling optimistic, we can now get that elusive 3 wins.

That was super impressive

That's it - Roos is off to do some work (line up his successor)

Roos looking pretty comfortable!

I am unbelievably excited. I am struggling to concentrate on anything else today! ROOS BABY!!

I've ahh... Just finished watching the presser.

Sorry I've got to go.

Does all this mean we're an actual team now?

I think we're forging the Team still, the off field team now, & the pre season will start to mold the list into something resembling.

.... then the pre season will shape the side.

Looking comfortable Roos is!

That was a standout for me as well. The man has status and commands respect.

Both Roos and PJ speak well.

That press conference was insane. He just has an aura around him that makes you believe without sounding like a salesman. I love how he directly spoke about the captaincy situation with respect to the players and also directly hitting up Watts and Sylvia. Also dangling the carrot of the picks for players to see what bites. If he does that to a supporter you can imagine what that does to a player.

I am going to the game tonight and will wear my MFC scarf at the G with pride probably for the first time in a long time.

still struggling with the 2 years factor

some get Jaded some 'salts' I think shes had an attack of the 'vapours" lol

Now what do i do with my life

I think it's a weird arrangement but it's better than not getting him.

Thought they could have held off the succession plan info till later in his tenure (publicly). Just let the good news of him being coach filter through to the fans and sell sell sell the new brand etc.

At least we now know the players have no excuses from here. We have our man and those who haven't been lifting their weight will have to ship up or they'll be moved on fairly smartly.

Looking comfortable Roos is!

Comfortable he is!

Work he must do!
