All the obvious memories are there, but what I thank Ross for the most is that feeling in those first 4 years that I had of supporting a truly feared club. Teams, good teams, would come to Subi and be already 2 goals down in their head knowing they were facing a tough, well drilled, fierce team that would shed blood rather than give up a goal. Backed by a stadium full of loyal, long suffering fans, it would make the whole game feel suffocating for visiting teams. I loved that, and only Ross could have done it. The pinnacle of that feeling was my favourite sporting memory ever of the PF against Sydney.
Obviously recent years has seen the shine wear off. Perhaps it's a final ironic testament that Ross's departure was hastened because of a expected standard of success that he himself set.
Thanks Ross, obviously and clearly the best coach we've had.
