It is bad enough that the Shaw rumours have been proven accurate.
To make matters worse, the 'Roos to Roos' rumour may also have legs.
I've never met Roos, I'm sure he's a nice guy, and well-respected in the industry. I've got nothing against him.
But let's be real: he won a flag with a team getting, what was it, a 20% bonus on top of the salary cap at the time?
And that flag was fifteen years ago. The game has evolved dramatically in the time since.
Then he went to Melbourne who, with no disrespect to Demons fans, have done four-fifths of **** all in the seven years since Roos was brought in.
Roos sits there on the couch with Gerard Healy and pontificates about this, about that, and so on. Okay, great. I don't care and I don't watch.
One of the things I liked most about Shaw was that he was young, he was fresh, he seemed like the job was more than just a job to him.
If we're going to have some guy trot out tired cliches while pretending to make the place more 'professional', we might as well bring back Brads Scotts.
At least Brads was good at giving the players real estate advice and encouragement to set themselves up for life after footy.
So anyway, now on to my question for you:
Would you want Paul Roos to have anything to do with your football department?
