I love it everytime and whats even better is that it annoys other supporters aswell!

He's also picking the Dees this friday night as he has an emotional attachment still.

completely agree dazzle.

they saved a club whose meaning goes beyond words.

a club that permeates our very essence. 

Likes the smell of his own farts a bit does, Roosy.

But he's completely entitled and justified to be doing that.

 

If we win the flag this year I'd like to see roosy present it given the work he's put in to get us there. 

Realistically though how good would it be to

see the rev with the cup?

It would be a bold move for it to be anyone other than Barassi, but Roos would deserve it.

I've got nuthin..

 

He was the architect,  Goodwin is the builder.

Both those men are incredibly invested in this playing group.

"...Friday night will be like Roos watching his sons, Dylan and Tyler, playing against each other...When you go to any footy club you make emotional attachments,” Roos said. ... Now I’m very attached to Melbourne. The lack of success is part of it and I’m sympathetic to their plight. It’s exciting for Melbourne, they’ve been kicked for so long. I’m happy for Jack Watts and Nathan Jones and Max Gawn. I’m going for the Demons.” 

I think he bleeds red and blue!:roos::wub:

The reason farts smell is so that deaf people don't miss out.   Word.

Thanks Lucifer, love your posts. 

Somewhere i read he'd be Roo'ting for us. His bias is understandable. I'm biased :)

Just business.
If we won the flag Eddie would would offer him 3million a season.
And Roosy knows it.

Edited by Fork 'em

If we win the flag i would like to see the Rev present the cup & i would like to see Roosy up there holding the cup with Jonesy & Goodwin.


Whether you like it or not they're all forken biased.

 

Roosy on triple me yesterday said he was invited to a Melbourne function and spoke highly of Goody, peter Jackson and Glen Bartlett. He loves the Dee"s and will be red and blue for life, has helped our club and i for one can't thank him enough.

I hated it with Sydney and I hate it with Melbourne.

I've basically accepted that they're all pretty bloody biased. I'm just glad someone's biased FOR us. It's a nice change.

Spot on. I don't understand the under current of anti Roos sentiment coming through some posts on here. 

Without Roos, P. The MFC would be a piece of rotting carcas by now....

I guess the only answer is to win three premiership cups then... 

Historically speaking, every time the Doggies have won a flag the MFC has won the next three. 

:rolleyes:

 

Love Roos. But I'd guess the emotional attachment is overshadowed by the professional attachment. His legacy and all that. He and Jackson are the architects, and credit will be due, but it's only human to desire that you're contribution won't be forgotten.

If Roosy bleeds red and blue now, good on him.

He took on a basket case and got us ready to be a contender, so I can only be forever grateful. 

Plus I've a couple of Swans supporting mates who'll hate to hear he's ours now... :)

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
