Or was he just joking?
Other examples where Roos may have been joking without being totally serious:
"I gave him (Barry) a cook for not punching the ball instead," Roos joked after the game.
When asked if he'd pull any rabbits out of his hat, Roos joked he had a big surprise planned for Lyon. "Yeah, (Barry) Hall versus (Fraser) Gehrig first quarter is something, but I don't want to let that out of the bag. It could be a pretty important tactical move, taking our best player out of the forward line and putting him down back. I'm sure Rossy would be very surprised with that," laughed Roos. "No, I haven't got anything up my sleeve," he added, more seriously.
"Yeah, we've revamped our whole game plan," Roos joked yesterday when asked about what had changed.
"I can't do it. I'd like to but I haven't got that much pull, unless someone gets run over out here," Roos joked, pointing to Driver Avenue, which runs outside the Sydney Cricket Ground. "But I hope that doesn't happen."
And there are plenty more.
Maybe the AFL should first consider whether Roos has form on bad jokes before pursuing this ridiculous allegation of match fixing.
"They have had terrific battles. Chris got three votes and Adam got two, so even the umpires enjoyed it and if I can keep them happy that is a good objective to get out of the weekend," Roos joked.
