| What is with the xxxxen ?? Nice one Roosy, it'll be sad when the day comes ... strange that he made these comments or maybe that's just Paul Roos. Nah, I reckon 2009- 011 he'll be in the US on some very big dollars. |

| cont .. âIâd be interested in getting involved in the college system, in NFL [National Football League] or NBA [National Basketball Association]. Itâs unlikely to happen but Iâd be interested in doing that," he said. "That would probably interest me more than doing Victoria or South Australia or Western Australia. Itâs nothing against those teams or states, itâs just once I finish here Iâll be reasonably tired and ready to do something different.â If Roos was to ever contemplate a return to AFL coaching after a few years off, it would have to be back in Sydney rather than anywhere else. âI think if I did have a break and I got the urge to coach again Iâd like to think that, without stepping on anyoneâs toes or if the process happened and I was invited back to coach, Iâd be more likely to come back to this club rather than go to another club. |

| Don't worry Swannies, Roosy ain't goin' anywhere for a while yet. An article from sydneyswans.com.au " Roos annoints Longmire his successor " SYDNEY coach Paul Roos has endorsed his assistant John Longmire as the next man to take charge of the Swans.

I wonât make that decision obviously, but I think that if he was in that position and wanted to do it, heâd be very, very good for the club.â Longmire, a North Melbourne legend, Coleman Medallist and premiership player who has been at the Swans since 2002, has shared coaching duties during the NAB Cup and NAB Challenge games with Roos. The premiership coach has been viewing play from the bench in an experiment to improve communication between players and coaches. Heâd like to think that part of the legacy he will leave at the Swans, when he eventually finishes, is an able successor to take his place. âIâd like to think that weâve someone here that can step up. In any org *** ation I think itâs good if youâve a good culture and a good system that⦠when I do give it away, one of the assistants takes over," he said. "Obviously theyâre going to change some things, which would be good, but I think weâve got a good culture.â Having stated previously that he wouldnât coach outside New South Wales, Roos said that when he finishes his term with the Swans, coaching in the US, where his wife Tammy is from, would be of more appealing to him. âIâd be interested in getting involved ... |
