Paul Roos - he is now our King


Ron Burgundy

Recommended Posts

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.

I just want wins to be honest

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.

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.

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).

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

Good work !!

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
