    If you’ve read Barry Hall’s memoir from my memory of it Roos comes across as a bit two faced. Barry did not like him. Over rated as a coach I think.

    I used to play basketball against his brother. He was a legitimate terrifying psycho.

    This adds nothing to the thread.

    Roos was so weak, he texted Barry to say they won't be renewing his contract. Couldn't even tell him to his face

    Sammy Edmund doesn't reply on twitter when his bs assertions are questioned. 20 years in the industry and still circulating crap.

    To be fair, not a conversation I would be having without bullet proof glass between us.
    What makes it even worse is Bazza tried to leave a season or two earlier and Roos stopped him.

    If I heard Bevo correct, Marra is little to no chance of playing this year owing to fitness as a young un.

    Excitement levels off the charts … Wowee

    The most important part for me is the maturity shown to partner with Bont in the off-season and his commitment to get better. The world is his oyster.

    I took notes of every media commentator who talked some wild shit on a literal teenager and I will be making some calls Monday morning.

    Re: Jamarra - How excited are YOU???

    Amazing that a kid in only his seventeenth game and still only 20 years old was able to rip the game apart like that. What's even more encouraging is the strength/ fitness he showed in the last to keep having a crack. Shows how much hard work he's put in.

    There's going to be talk about how he's finally come good, finally living up to his potential, blah blah blah. What's going to be lost is that he's been building and this is just the start.

    As I said earlier in the thread, strap yourselves in!

    Everyone was out of their seats and jumping around like it was 16 xD

    Live that kick was one of the best I’ve seen it was a monster, the tv doesn’t do it justice.

    He certainly put together a fine game and showed that he has the makings of a champion player.
