Hope the the love will still be there for Roosy when other swans join him both off field and on - will give me another team to take an interest in Melb when the swans are not in town

A coincidence that his interest increased after Rocket confirmed he'd be staying at Collingwood? Perhaps he didn't want to compete with his former boss for a job.
Today's a draft of your epitaph
Remember we were not in good shape when he took over here in 2002. Obviously we were better off than Melbourne are now, but we did come from a fair way back - and the results were immediate.
I had accepted the possibility of his fairytale return to his old home at the Lions, but it's going to take a lot of getting used to seeing The Messiah in a Melbourne shirt if that's what happens.

YOU BETCHA!!!!!!
Rumour has it that Roosey will take George Stone and Tadgh (our loveable irishman) with him. His family prefer Melb if they were to move from Sydney. The timing of finalising things has a lot to do with respect for his current employer (the Swans). And the money and AFL support for him and Melb is HUGE. ...including the challenge.
Wonder how many he would recruit from "his" academy ...
He's got to get the nod from Tami , Tyler n Dylan, who are all steeped in the Swans culture.
It's an interesting family dilemma. The boys wouldn't be remotely interested in rooting for the Dees .
Roosey reckons the decision can't be based on money , but he's also said on many occasions that he would never coach again.
The money carrot is substantial so they will go ' show us the money Paul '.
Why would Roos go to a poor club and struggle all the time?
He could walk into a big club anytime he wanted. West coast, essendon, collingwood in a few years
I have always had this dream that Roosy & Longmire had a deal that they would take it in turns to coach the Swans. Based on Roosy's claim that 7years is long enough for the players to put up with the same message. They could take it in turns to run the Academy and Coach until they blood another coach to take the reigns or slot in when one of them is ready to retire. I guess I was just hoping Roos would be like Paul Kelly and not be able to work against the Swans. Wishful thinking I know but one can always dream........
