He also walked out on his manager who was dealing with the saints
he went behind peoples backs and did the deal for more money as he was in a bit of financial strife at the time
Now I dont blame him for being a mercenary - he had credential and he needed to set himself up with regards to his family and best interests

But dont ever paint him as anything other than a coaching journeyman who is in it for the money - especially now he is a SACKED coach with a pretty average win/loss percentage

Ross told the CEO he had just been appointed St Kilda's senior coach.
In a fit of rage the CEO sacked him.
Ross said thank you now you have to pay out my contract.

Tell us what you really think :lol:

Loved Ross in his saints era, got to know him a bit and he was fantastic to converse with.

Would I want him back ... No, nup, never, nyet, nein, non, née, ne, nej, Nahim, nem, nihil, nē, nei, nie, naeh, nào, nahim, nahin, nu, net, nej, ni!

Why are you so negative ?
Thinking of career in left wing politics maybe.

GWS is perfect for Ross

I don't think he is perfect for them and he won't do any better than Leon Cameron

But I'm certain it will help maintain his career win/loss ratio. And will also assist to extend the myth of his greatness for a few more years

Gee whiz.

No one was more disgusted with Ro$$ when he departed.

But if he's the best man for the job -- and Roo, Dal, Joey and BJ would argue that he is -- then I'd suggest we should suck it up.

Interview him and if he blows it out of the water then give him the job. He's a c*** and that's what we need.

And trade Long for a second rounder.

Any other brilliant ideas?!

Can't recall saying that. In fact, I didn't.

Suggested Long was tradeable to the Injectors as they'd previously expressed an interest in him.

As such we'd probably get overs for him which we could then use to secure Ben King or Brad Hill.
