Roos 3 years

[Maple Demon 449]

I wanna make love to Paul Roos.

I think this qualifies as oversharing, DD36.

[Guest]

I mentioned this was what was happening on the Hogan thread last week and a couple of people on hear got stuck into me for making up rumours?!!??!?! Those people should apologise.

I will say one more thing. Don't be surprised if Roos remains as coach beyond this contract........

Your first encounter on this board with myself was tense. However, I have come to trust what you say.

When you initially criticized Neeld, you turned out to be 100% on the money (it was clear you knew something we didn't).

When you said Roos was a cert last year, that turned out to be true as well.

After that, I let our initial spat behind. Good work my man.

Mate, I am nearly through a bottle of red. Something you should know about.

Nah it's fair enough. I'd boof him.

[Ethan Tremblay 28,536]

Thats great, what station was that on

Will check their website to see if they uploaded the interview

It was re-played on SEN, it wasn't a live interview so not sure where it originated from.

[Pates 9,537]

The moment we didn't manage to get the successor in place for this year I was confident that we would have Roos for the full 3 years. I think it's fantastic that he has also said that he will stay with the club in some capacity afterwards, he may have started as a Lion, and made a name for himself as a Swans coach, but he's going to leave his mark at the Dees.

same occurred to me.

either ...someone put hand up and succession plan A was put into action

or

No takers, or no one seeming up to it .... then it surely had to be Roos for 3

just seemed logical

The background music of that interview it did make me think he was the saviour.

In Roos we trust.

I'm not of the opinion we seriously looked for a successor we spoke to dew got knocked back and by the sounds of things that's about it

Who got stuck into you in that Hogan thread? I just took a look and the only response I saw to your comment was to query with the logic of Roos taking a Director of Football position after a $1.6m per year contract...It's Time I think it was, said: "Not sure the logic behind Director of Football when he's reportedly earning $1.6mill"

I certainly did not see any comments that were abusive or spiteful in any sense of the word... certainly nothing deserving of an apology.

[Sir Why You Little 34,934]

Roosy is here to do a job. He aint going anywhere.

Number 13.

[Dr. Gonzo 22,629]

So he stays for 3 before handing over after delivering back-to-back flags? I can live with that

[blue and red in the head 95]

I don't think roo's can commit any longer due to scaring off any potential Sucsessor. If He commits longer a potential coach may think is he willing to hand the team over in 2 years time or will he take on an extra year. I think Roos will stay on until he finds the right man for the job to take over from after a 2 year apprenticeship under him

[Ron Burgundy 8,584]

Just read it.

This is simply the best news I've read since he signed with the club in the first place.

Only swear words can truly express my excitement.

#8%%@&! stoked.

And even better than that, I am sure that it will ensure that Chip will stay!

he seems pretty happy in all the interveiws i have seen and stuff, certainly doesn't seem like a bloke about to go anywhere

[Dee Fan 3,247]

I also posted that the day after our AGM, after PJ told me that he was confident that 3 would be the minimum. I am not as confident about him going longer though, unless the replacement can't be locked in. He seems prepared to take on another role after 3 years, probably as the Coach's mentor.

As with all Demonlanders I would love to see him change his mind and commit to say 5 years, it would do wonders for our stability.

I'd hope it was 4 or 6 years redleg, I couldn't go through another 5 year rebuild.

Very ambient. A bit annoying actually

May we all prostrate ourselves at your feet, I wouldn't be surprised if he stayed, I would say if there is a sniff of a flag after 3 years he won't be going anywhere

I am usually the rumour hater, don't remember berating you

I am joining the chorus on this - no-one attacked you.

There is little need for 4 question marks and 4 exclamation marks interspersed in such a manner...

[Grand New Flag 3,226]

OK, OK, on reflection I got a little carried away on "people getting stuck into me". I really could not care if people did. Anyway, I will blame it on the red wine making me want to unnecessarily big note myself.

My apologies.

[What 18,810]

Interesting that this still hasn't been officially announced or confirmed by the club

Does he really need to exercise the option for 2016 now?

The article on the website was all about allaying fears that some had that he would up and leave after 2015 or 2016 and that never was his intention. If we continued with our off-field, er, limitations, then he isn't wedded to anything but he will be around the club for many years - just the head coaching grind is not what he wants for much longer.

That's what that article on the website was trying to tell us.
