    Should have made it a poll.

    He's lost one of his best players....but his reactions were not good. See what happens for the rest of the year. The season is over - Won't make the finals...all he can do now is play the youth.

    Let's see if he can get that right.

              The game today was the best that group of players can do??

              Roos needs to leave, need a fresh coach - not Longmire.

                We are nowhere near as bad as Freo, until today we were competitive.

                  Can you fourth a statement?

                  What a joke thread and remarkable that it has been given any support. In fact, can't believe I'm giving it credence by responding.

                  FM, how did some of you survive as supporters when things were really grim.... were you even there?

                    If I second this does this make it 4 to the power of 2..whatever it is I second it.

                      It's not reasonable to have a spat and say the coach is crap after a woeful performance? Particuarly when it was clearly posted right after watching that woeful performance?
                      I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
                      We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                        Is it reasonable to label a coach "crap" when he has coached his team to 6 consecutive finals series (only Craig has achieved a similar level of consistency amongst current coaches) and to two GFs and one premiership?

                        Who are you confident would have coached the Swans to a win yesterday?

                          Some would disagree that Roosy Lost one of his best players

                            I think the criticism on yesterday's game is warranted on the way the side was selected and stuctured.

                            I can't blame him for being not his usual relaxed self after one of his key players let him and the rest of the side down. I wonder whether he thought the Hall send off was appropriate. His demenour on the telly certainly wasn't one of a happy man.

                            I look forward to how he goes about his coaching in a period when for the first time he is under the pump and in the development stage of a group of "new" footballers (not footy players). I also look forward to the odd occasion in the rebuliding phase where he refers to the coaches getting it wrong.

                            I recall when he took over the reigns he made the famous statement to a group of mature footballers; " Now I am going show you players how to play footy". And he did with spades.

                            Did someone on here say that we had 8 players with the flu. Does that mean 7 played and one who should have, was left in the 2's for that reason?

                              Love the work Paul Roos did with the swans 2002-2008.
                              He was instrumental in helping the swans win a premiership for the first time in 72 years , but i think along with micky o , barry hall and others its time for Roosy to move along.
                              BUT i think you can be be a coach at one club for too long and his message dosent appear to be getting across to his players.
                              we need a clean out starting at the top ( colless) through to the coaches and players
