After listening to him on Saturday night and OTC last night, i just wish he would stop commenting on what we are doing. I have no doubt on Saturday night that Crows people were listening to his comments and relaying this to their coaching staff and believe me this happens.
So Roosey STFU !!!
 
Wasn't ground breaking what he said on OTC, specifically our forward line. Was clear when Goodes went off that we pushed all our numbers up, to allow space behind for guys like Jetta to run in to.
 
I think you need to give a little more respect to the other teams coaching staff. They would be ripping apart weekly all vision for this stuff, and analysing on the fly during the game. Just like we do.

That's why there are 10 blokes in the box on laptops and with tv's. I'm sure there are lip readers etc with binoculars on the coaches box and a mobile to their ear. Watch any NFL coverage lately? It's like covert ops out there!
 
On the subject, I'm sorry but Roos isn't saying anything ground breaking, sitting at the game I laughed when Jetta was put to full forward but that was the exact reason. As I think Hudson said in the commentary - or Dunstall maybe - this is when onfield leaders need to step up and know what's going on. Whether or not Roos says anything, Adelaide and other teams will cotton on.

It's not like a few years ago when St Kilda used a secret code where they tapped their wrist late in the quarter to signify something and RIewoldt refused to reveal what it was. It's not like Roos is coming out revealing our secret game codes, he's just doing what any external viewer of our team would do, and analyse what we're doing right and wrong. They do it for every team.

Roos works in teh media and works in teh development academy. I doubt Horse is taking coaching tips from him. Roos is being paid to analyse and comment on the game. That's what he did, If Adelaides coaching staff can't work out what Sydney are trying to do on game day, they should be sacked, they don't need Roos help, I'm sure any former coach would have noted the same things. At least we now have someone on side for us in the commentary after listening to all those Mebourne and Adelaide biased commentaries it's like heaven

His team mates were teasing him. The secret was a sign to Reiwoldt "Lift your game or we'll tell everyone you have a little weenie"

I agree Gongswan, Roos is in the media and is paid to commentate and yes at least it is somebody who knows the players names! He is intelligent and articulate and I like that he does not take Dunstall's crap. A little more respect for the coach who took us to a grand final and helped shape the Bloods culture. He would also be the last person to tell Longmire how to coach nor would he be asked. They are both professional people with abit more intergrity than your average boof head who seem to float around in the media.

Geezuz Bedford!

You & I are starting to think the same things!

I must say that Roos was giving me the sh.ts in his comments on Sat night & I actually yelled out "shut up Roosy, you are sounding too biased" during the game, much to the disbelief of my sons.

They never thought I'd turn on poor old Roosy, but I was agitated that night after the first Q!

I still won't agree with you on McVeigh!;)

On another topic Bedford, did you have a look at the clip on Luke Hodge's top ten most courageous players?
I think you'll enjoy his number one!

Cheers!

Roos wasn't saying anything that any decent coach wouldn't already know. A trail of smug does seem to follow Roos wherever he goes, but the hate for him on this site seems way OTT.
