Let's hope so. I'm just glad he's out of the media, his Sydney centric garbage was like torture to listen to.

Interestingly only 2 years with an option.

When it gets too hard he will pull the pin.

Hadn't thought of that. It's a real positive.

Staggered it's only 2 years.
Sounds like a reluctant coach ( maybe the family not so happy)

Re: Demons coach race

Interesting take from Roos.

He is setting himself as the messiah to establish a culture of success and already arranged to walk away before anything is achieved.

So any success he will take credit for but a failure can be attributed to someone else.

Perhaps he should be in politics.

Yep, this is destined to go pear shaped. No real commitment.

For a poor man he's getting a sheetload of cash.

How can they afford it

Re: Demons coach race

With the amount he'll be on it would be madness to give him more than a 2 year contract.

Re: Demons coach race

A few months back a Melb supporter friend of mine was talking about Roos. But my opinion is Roos is a finisher as a coach. What they need is a builder type, eg Eade, to pull them out of the slums and get them back to contending the top 8. Not a coach that contends premierships. I can't see it working.

Re: Demons coach race

He will inherit a list of formiddable forward talent: Jeremy Howe, Mitch Clark, Jesse Hogan, Chris Dawes and Jack Watts. I don't want to fuel the fire of jealousy or rivalry but they could be serious rivals for us in our rise. Roos said he is open to trading the #2 pick. He is after instant results and I can see it could happen with a quality backman and midlfielder and the right application to the contest. I would be on the phone to Daniel Cross if I was Roos.
It will of course be a test of developing a totally new culture at an old schoolboys club and that seems like Mt Everest but nothing succeeds like success. There is a chance for them to have instant turnaround of performance (they don't have much to beat) and if a little belief starts happening, then they could be a pain in the arse.
