Hey guys sorry for intruding,

Just wanted to ask, now that Roos is officially the Melbourne coach - do you think he will try and chase any current Swans players that he was close with to come across?

Will be interesting to see if Roos goes hard at any trades. You guys should go get Longer or Docherty.

I don't think Roos will go hard at Swans players.


Because reasons.

It really depends on how "flexible" he is as a coach.

The super-defensive and high-stoppage style was correct for Sydney given the home ground and the batch of players he had. If he is a good coach, he will develop the team around the attributes and strengths of the current playing group (whatever they are) and minimise the weaknesses. Eg. 90s Chicago Bulls: give the ball to Jordan...the same strategy doesn't work if it's "give the ball to Andrew Bogut".

Bulls: "Give the ball to Jordan"
Dees: "Give the ball to Jordie"

I don't think he will, has too much respect for the swans. Might get a coach or two though.

I WANT SOME GODDAMN DELISTINGS.

Collingwood has come out with 6 players not returning in 2014, all this within 2 days after their end of season. Why is Melbourne dragging its knuckles, surely it's not that hard to flick off Gillies and Jetta (at a minimum).

I imagine we would be several weeks behind most clubs as we would have waited until the new coach came in. The Collingwood players would have known for a while they were getting delisted so it wouldn't have been a shock on Monday morning.

I don't reckon telling your players they're being delisted before a finals campaign is a particularly smart move.

Write that down in the Nathan Buckley book of "Shit I Shouldn't Have Done"

Sellar, Davis, Gillies, Couch and Tynan Delisted. Also Royal and Brown gone.

Davis, Gillies, Sellar, Tynan and Couch delisted. Coaches Brian Royal and Leigh Brown to leave also.

Condolences to these seven, though the Brian Royal news is somewhat fantastic. Has been a curse upon our midfield. Disappointed about Davis, honestly thought he had something though I'll trust Roos' judgment. Unfortunate for Couch too, never got a fair go. Hopefully he can make something of it at another club, perhaps one that's more competitive and looking for big bodies.

 

[CTHORANGE]

Thank you jeebus, rejoice everyone, Brian Royal is gone!!!!!!!!

 

[Headless]

The prestigious #41 is up for grabs!

 

[Carusiii]

yeah good moves i think, shame for sellar, didnt mind him

 

[Demon JP]

Good start, can't say any of those departures are a big surprise

 

[syl]

So Magner delisted? Traded?

Who else?

 

[KAYNE]

Sellar probably had to go because we have Pederson stuck on the list for another 2 years. Didn't mind him from the limited number of games I have seen. Not great player but could fill a gap.

 

[LouisvilleLip]

Brain Royal gone? Day made!

 

[Viney]

So Magner delisted? Traded?

Who else?

Reckon he'll be upgraded

I think he can stay on as a 3rd year rookie or he might be elevated.

 

[SFebey]

I think I'm more excited that Royal has gone than I was of getting Roos, I'm not joking either.

 

[DeesFan]

My desk has just risen on the news we have got rid of Royal ..

My only sad feeling was to Tyan but got over very quickly ..

Rest meh ... I think a few other are only hanging on because there might be some trade value .. e.g. Jetta, Bail (small amount)

More assistant roles with move on .. anyone Neeld brought in would have to go ..

The best decision ever made (and wasn't by Melbourne) was to get Jackson .. he has done more to improve Melbourne in 6 months than anyone in my 44 years.

As per my posts from 3 years ago .. CS was a knob and hopefully everyone can see that now.

Looking up .. now hopefully player might want to come to work under Roo's and just not for the $$$ thou will still might pay overs which is ok for a while

**** Pederson is a donkey, worst of all I didn't mind Sellar as a backup
