Paul Roos on 5AA - Tyler as list manager?

Paul Roos was interviewed on 5AA this afternoon. Excellent interview - I guess no one is surprised. He went over some old ground but also introduced new material. Indicates that Jade Rawlings is staying on, and his son Tyler, is going through the list for him!

If nothing else, Roos is so engaging, he will be an PR person for the club.

Thanks.

 

Im paraphrasing here but Roos said

"Ive had a couple of discussions with Jack Trengove, he came up and spent some time with me in Sydney"

Did this rick anyone elses ears up? I wonder when that happened. Pretty awesome revelation

Probably just his son having abit of fun.

Paul has a great media personality and doesnt treat the media like Neeld did


"I want Jack to get back to being a natural footballer hunting the ball around the stoppages" (paraphrasing)

Love hearing his thoughts on the other coaches... wants coaches who don't have to learn his style too much so we could see a more rapid rise than expected perhaps as these guys already know how each other operate.

 

Also sounds as though Trenners might not be captain next season.

I'm hoping Roosy does what I would do: drop Trengove back to vice-captain and just have Jack Grimes as sole captain. I rate his leadership really highly, and I think as a leader he is actually better than Nathan Jones.

I just see absolutely no harm in multiple captains at a time when we are still in for the long haul. Until one of our players reaches Selwood, Hodge, Watson, Nick Riewold, J Brown, Pav level of consistency why burden any individual

I think Trenners was in Sydney with Tapscott the other week. I saw it on Instagram

Jack Watts was joining them too for a bit of R&R.

Henderson and McKernan for Pick 2? :mellow:

"We know you need some hard bodied midfielders...how about a couple of key position players?"

Only problem with Grimes is he's at best a C grade footballer.

He can improve though. He reminded everyone in the last game of the season what he's capable of.

The difference between his best and worst is monumental.

I suggest you go rewatch the games he played before injuring his shoulder against Carlton this year. I think you'll find he was in our best every week.

I just question whether a C grade footballer should be captain. Trengove was B grade for mine this year. I'd keep him as captain sooner than Grimes.

He was still butchering the ball though, Chook. I'm not saying he can't or won't improve, I just don't think he should be captain right now. As a team mate, you'd be watching him turn it over and wondering, why is he the guy that's leading us? You don't have to be an A grader to be captain, but your capabilities should be a little higher than C grade.

Anyway, it's good having a coach that really seems to care about his players. He seems to be an amazing man manager.

Surely you don't mean B Grade in the league? He averaged 17 touches.and kicked 9 goals for the year.

No way on earth I'd be selecting Trengove as captain ahead of Grimes. Mysterious injuries or not, ever since he's been captain he's gone backwards in his development.


I am really looking forward to 2014 season.

Must admit I never would have thought that after 2013 but its amazing how your mindset can change if positive things happen at the footy club.

I know it going to be another hard season but at least we have a man in charge is knows what he is doing and NOT learning on the job which makes a nice change.

Only problem with Grimes is he's at best a C grade footballer.

Captaincy comes down to leadership imo... Look at some of the more recent captains... Tom Harley, Cameron Ling, Nick Maxwell, Nathan Van Berlo etc... People wouldnt be calling them A grade players but they are A grade individuals.. I think Grimes is among them as an A grade person who will give his all for the club and then some.

I just see absolutely no harm in multiple captains at a time when we are still in for the long haul. Until one of our players reaches Selwood, Hodge, Watson, Nick Riewold, J Brown, Pav level of consistency why burden any individual

Interesting point.

what IF scenario, depending on who Paul Roos atracts to our club to increase onfield leadership.. What IF Jones was made captain as Many have called for, and we struggle again next year, with Jones being tagged out each week... his form & confidence would drop right off.

I'm OK with multiple.

But the real answer isn't which captain, but the depth of ability & the spread of performance in all matches. the team actually being competative, & being responsible to help one another, & to play 'For' one another.

or maybe ...... ever since he had Mark Neeld as coach he went backwards in his performance?. None of us know whether this was a contributing factor, but he certainly seemed to lift a notch under Neil Craig.

I think Colin Garland would be a good choice for captain, Jones is a great onfield leader title of not and is improving every year, if something aint broke don't fix it

but Garland is ultra consistant, plays his role for the team week in week out, great on and off field leader

either Garland or Jones unless we attract a big name player somehow.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
