    Sure, this is a short clip made specifically for our consumption, but if it typifies Roosy's normal modus operandi, then it's easy to see why he's held in such high regard as a people manager and player developer. I loved the constant encouragement of the players, the positive reinforcement for things well done, and the clear instructions set in context of what was unfolding on the field or what had happened moments earlier. And he did it from the field of play, not from outside the boundary while sucking on a coffee. Time will tell, but to me it's hard not to see the players thriving in this environment.

    Yeah i know

    I like the muppet in a self deprecating kinda way.

    Bleasy, Byrnesy, Maxy, Matty, Kenty, Georgy, Wattsy. Classic Roosy.

    By the way he's mentioned 3 times in the first 20 seconds I do get the feeling Blease is a massive pet project of Roos. If he can fix Blease he can coach just about anyone.

    Don't you just love being corrected on a mythical creature.

    I think that image is actually a Gawndog about to eat a strumpet.

    Would be interesting to see one of Mark Neeld to contrast the two different attitudes

    You're mistaken my friend, Neeld didn't run the trainings, he was to important, he just did the main show whilst Craig was the matinee show

    wonder just how much negative things actually go on, ie how much editing do they have to do

    Is it just me or do those dees caps Roos is wearing make it look like they have two caps on?

    I loved the clip. Looking forward to the sequel.

    I would prefer the sound grab of one of the breaks in the intra club - that was just running commentary of a few good things Roosy saw (and we didn't see).

    I know Neeld was professionally a 'Teacher' but Paul Roo's is actually a "teacher."

    Brilliant stuff.

    That dumb funt neeld was neither a "teacher" nor a "Teacher". The fact that he is in anyway associated with the noble order of pedagogues disturbs me greatly.

    On the other hand, Roos looks to be exactly what a football 'teacher' should be. Hands on, instructive, demonstrating, encouraging, hard when need be and, importantly, with a clear view to the bigger picture.

    PS. A friend of mine taught English to Mark Neeld in what is now VCE. She said he still has essays outstanding from over 20 yrs ago. He was apparently a bit of a smart rrrse. Ironic that he became a school teacher.

    If he is talking to Watts in Part 2 it is really interesting hearing him telling him to run, run, run, up and back. That seems to be the message to the whole team but especially to Watts. If he can do that, watch this space. Love how simple and direct his instructions are.

    No it wouldn't we all know what MN was like hence why he ain't there no more.

    Remember when the cameras were in the rooms?

    A more uninspiring coach i have never seen.

    Nuff said.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
