WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - PAUL ROOS

[Crompton's the man 659]

It's great news

Would have re-joined anyway ( have already anyway via MCC ) because the further down the club went the more they need support.

Having said that this is a tremendous boost and encouragement

Hope it's 3 years+

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Liar liar pants on fire!!!!

Must have been quick cause I turned over straight away and he was gone.

It was very quick.

[Jack7 528]

He reiterated on Fox that it will be 3 years only "and i'm really strong on that"

[daisycutter 29,737]

now who was the recent poster who said he;d run buck naked down the street if roos signed?

don't forget we need proof i.e. photographs

[Maldonboy38 6,406]

First time to get on Demonland since the news broke. Well done PJ and team to convince Rood to this 2-3 year plan. At last I can smile in 2013.

Now for the bad news. I wasn't convinced we would get him and recently posted that if Roos was appointed I would run naked down my street in the buff with just a Dees scarf round my neck yelling out "Rooooooos". Being a man of my word I have to find a way to do it. 2:30am this morning is looking good - I hope it stays warmish!

3 years is a long time and who knows what will happen especially if we have success.

Even if he does hand it over I would be happy with the following:

1. Having had Roos for 3 than not at all

2. His successor leading us to a flag look at Longmire

Its a WIN WIN

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Choco or eade would have only got three years

[dees189227 12,398]

Du you reckon he will be the most popular person at the family day in march?

[Swooper Northey 494]

His appointment is the best news we've had for a long, long time. Can't think of too many better stories to have emerged from our club in recent history. A great day. Well done Mr Jackson.

[Jack Jack 415]

What an incredible day. The appointment of Roos is a huge step forward for our great club, not just because we've managed to get such a quality person as head coach, but it means we've got the caliber of people within our organisation to attract such a highly regarded coach.

I'm beginning to remember what it's like to be a truly proud Dees supporter.

Welcome aboard Roos and well done MFC.

a bit dangerous when they have possible ASADA infractions hanging over their heads

Yeah good point I guess....

Yeah, I think the fact that it has been such a dark and disappointing past few years adds to the energy and excitement levels of his appointment.

I'm still pinching myself that our club has been able to appoint a coach of his calibre without stuffing it up beforehand.

Well done PJ and Bartlett, great work.

Welcome aboard, the Cesar Millan of the AFL, Paul Roos, the Dees Whisperer. Hopefully after 3 years, the mangy muts will be turned into prize show dogs.

But will there be any dwarf burning on Mad Monk-day?

[Maldonboy38 6,406]

Just listened to the full press conference and loved Roos' media presence and clarity. But amid all this great stuff I thought PJ was quite rude when he said this is the most important thing to happen to this club since Barassi walked to Carlton in 1965. No. Two grand final appearances in 1988 and 2000 were more important. The Roos appointment is a great coup and I am wrapped but I didn't appreciate that comment from PJ at all. Disrespectful to others who worked hard years before he got here.

PJ is right.

We lost both GFs. Today we won massively. And I mean massively.

Today might be the day that leads us to win a GF, instead of just appearing in one.

Well, at least it was for her.
