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.

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 hate his bias.

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....

Yeh especially when he was coaching them.

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... :)

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
