Paul Roos - he is now our King

Apologies - I know there's a Paul Roos for coach thread already, but, having just watched OTC tonight, and having observed the slander directed towards him by Richard Colless and others at the Swans tonight, I felt angry.

Paul Roos is our man now. He's no longer our potential coach. He's now our leader.

Get behind him.

I love the man.

 

So do I. I have genuine belief now and we have genuine credibility.

 

I just want wins to be honest

oh gee really

Cos nobody else wants that

Of course, but the theatre of the off season also can also have bearing on a club, or at the minimum its supporters. I know that I feel some hope again after feeling dead inside all last season. That's worth more than I can put into words.

Cam Schwab?

Heh. You love a man.

Yep, time to get behind him. Can't think of him anymore as the personification of the Swans. In Roos we trust.

Btw Ron, am I wrong in recalling you making similar posts/threads about Neeld? :)

I think your love is much better directed this time.

I am the same. Any other coaching appointment would have completely deflated me (if I could have been any further deflated after this season).

I liked the steel in the rooster's eyes when he talked of moving on.

Roos should stay with us then, as the Swans like every other team are our enemy that must be crushed at nearly all costs.

Unlike Messendon the MFC says NO to Drugs.

To the DH in SWANS, slander our King as much as you like, we just love him more and you just look like a bunch of LOSERS!

C'MON THE DEES!


Yep ... let's shed that nice guy image and start stepping on a few toes.

We should become the Ryan Crowleys of the competition both on and off the field.

I particularly like that sort of attitude on the field, especially during the coming period in which our players with talent are developing. If we play with that persistent in your face attitude week in, week out, then the 15 goal floggings become a thing of the past and we start winning games we were never expected to win.

If a large percentage of our game is played in the head, we've been headless for the past seven years.

Now we can start again.

Football is business, and Roos has committed to his role burning past bridges to ensure his future success.

Change is a powerful thing, and this club is showing clear signs of change.

Exciting times ahead under the direction of Roos.

Perhaps if we are on the front foot off the field the players will feel like the jumper is worth playing for.

Colless and the Swans have a terrible culture problem up there .

the Swans are on the slide ,CLEARLY.

You're right P Man. I'm a bit embarrassed about that. Took me a while to figure that bloke out. Too long in fact.

I think I'm on the money this time though, even if I initiated this thread after far too many birthday drinks ( ... scotch by the way).

There's talk on the street; it sounds so familiar
Great expectations, everybody's watching you
People you meet, they all seem to know you
Even your old friends treat you like you're something new

Yep.......there's a new kid in town :)

A Demon !!!!

Glad to see you are getting with the "Strength" RB

Birthday gift?

Which one?

The club/Roos are being proactive in recreating this place ( MFC) as a destination of interest for the upcoming silly seasoned circus.

Good work !!

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
