Discussion of Roos' speech at the B n F: http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/paul-roos-says-melbourne-united-richmond-in-disarray-in-farewell-speech/news-story/115f12006df77c0be0f041f29f1e68e8

Roos' own farewell message to the players:  “Decide to be great. It is a decision, it doesn’t happen by accident,”...“You have to want to be great. And greatness is not going to happen when you turn up on November 1 or whenever you turn up and Simon has got the whistle in charge...“Greatness is going to happen when you walk out of this room tonight. That’s when greatness starts...“You have to commit to it you have to want to do it and I would love nothing more than to see Simon and Nathan holding up the premiership cup.”

He has laid down the challenge:  Greatness.  Up to the players now.  Hope they want it as badly as we do.

Spot on. Players must be training in their own time if they really want to make it

He was paid handsomely to minimise this sought of debacle. Perhaps I'm being harsh.

Usually it's the club taking the risk when they appoint a coach. However, in this case, Roos took the bulk of the risk. His reputation could have been severely tarnished should his time with us gone completely pear-shaped. So, I don't begrudge him whatever he was paid. 

Anyone been watching him in the media during the finals? How's he been doing? 

I used to get sick of him talking about Sydney and all the boys, but he can talk us up as much as he likes.

He has minimised this sort of debacle.

The Paul Roos legacy. Destination club.
