Why is it so hard for people to see this for how it really is?
He's not good enough for senior selection anymore.

Fair enough. But as I said I don't watch the ressies and that wasn't the mail on these boards from those who do.
But I know this much...too many posters close the club are suggesting "something" was going on for there not to be at least a grain of truth. I just really struggle to believe thr club would do that to Rhino of all people.

Anyhow, have a Winfield 25.

Nothing more to to it than ROK losing his place for reasons that the club has repeatedly outlined.
There might have been a little disagreement amongst the leadership group about ROK's fate.

Just caught up on Thursday's AFL 360 episode, Robbo claimed that O'Keefe to Hawthorn deal that eventually fell through was going to involve Jordan Lewis. Haven't heard that before.
I think he should be playing today against Richmond.

- Kidding, right?
Three Swans players with surnames starting with "S".
Perhaps that's what we wanted and they showed us the door. From memory the Hawks tried to get him on the cheap didn't even offer a decent pick.
on sentiment, i agree. but the Richmond game was a dress rehearsal for finals. so playing rok would have meant that we saw one less player in action to judge if they could cover for injuries.
its a tough industry, and when you're gunning for the flag you cant let sentiment get in the way of the ultimate goal.
another tough call, but the right one
its a little strange, there was speculation throughout the year whether rok would get a recall, and here we are, end of the h&a season. we gotta keep looking forward

Roos said he 'might' have wanted him 12 months ago, maybe ROK wanted to do a deal so thats why he was never gonna be played again, Id understand that.
Any chance he is going to our enemies GWS?
Today Leon Cameron came out saying the club would chase mature bodies to help out developing players in the midfield.
Straight away ROK came to mind. They want some blood (pun intended) in order to stick it to us for taking Buddy from under their noses.
It makes sense for him to go there as he will be given a coaching role in the future.
He doesn't look happy at all with the club.

Cant imagine he would want to uproot his family and move to anywhere else for a 1yr deal at best.. i guess some footballers don't know when to stop
One thing i hope we dont do is give him a coaching role immediately i think its way to soon for that get some fresh faces in not tied to the club imo.

well hardly seems like either party would be interested in a coaching role.
They're quick those blokes.

RUMOURS he will be named as an Assistant Coach at the Crows in coming days
Best choice for us he is to close to the playing group just like Kirk give him a few years outside of Sydney.
If the Adelaide coaching rumor is true does he announce his retirement?

You guys all remember what happened the last time we trusted the Adelaide board for off-season movement rumours right? He's more likely to end up at GWS working as the mascot.
