Paul Roos media conference @ draft combine

Very interesting.

But when are those so-called media professionals who run these pressers, and especially the post-game pressers, going to make the questions that are asked audible?


Spot on Roosy.....free agency will make the competition less uneven! Makes a good point only 2 players didn't end up @ their club of choice pre free trade commencing!

If ant broke don't fix it!

How good is it to have a respectable voice on all matters AFL just so happen to be a part of our club? Roos brings us relevance in a time when we probably don't deserve as much. He also is willing to have a crack at anyone. I wish I could intelligently tell people they are tossers like he does.

He really owns these types of pressers.

Made very sensible comments on Clark and pumped up his value.

Was blunt about the problems in free agency - about as blunt as he could possibly be.

Was clear about wanting people who want to commit to the club and be part of what he wants to do and essentially couldn't care less about Chip.

Really, really good presser.

If only he didn't wanna leave us in 2 years!

he will stay involved

One point that came across to me is that a three way trade between ourselves,Geelong and C'wood is very much on the cards. We get Lumumba, Geelong get Clark and Geelong gives up a player or pick to C'wood.

Very interesting.

Agree 100 percent - the media conference are obviously not run by professionals. Professional media would always require the questioner to have a microphone.

Another bit of sloppy work by AFL.

He only wants blokes who know the real meaning of commitment.

Hope we end up with players like Jack at the Swans, ready to die for the cause.

Viney , Salem, Cross, Tyson etc.

He'll get them.

Things looking up.


Was happy to hear he wouldn't give up Picks 2 & 3 for a big fish.

Interesting he mentioned Toump as one of the young talents on the list. A show of faith perhaps.

I did notice that, but also that he was mentioned last and almost as an afterthought after guys like JKH, who are obviously ahead of him in Roos's mind.

Didn't think it were possible for Roo's to go up in my books, however he just did.

We're in good hands :)

Love his swipes at the League.

 

I thought it was more of a swipe at the AFLPA, BB. I think he'll be safe from the wrath of AFL House in any case.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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.
