Rooeys last game

[stjohnc]

As we are virtually no chance for the finals this year, Should next weeks home game be Rooeys last game for the club?
Home game, a lot bigger crowd than you would expect for our away game against the tigers.
Go out on a win

Be there or be square! Room for all Saints supporters because not to many Roos will turn up.

No excuse for any genuine StKilda supporter, card-carrying member or not, to miss this game.

He retires after last round....it is a team game.
Your post is silly.

[The Recruit]

Disagree
Roos game should be his last
Many won't go to the MCG for the tigers game much better things to do then watch a repeat of that first half today..
If and when we have a decent game plan against teams that allow for different scenarios in games...then the supports will go to away games..untill then round 22 is the last game of the year for stkilda this year

Silly why?? Deserves to go off with a win in front of a large home crowd. He's only a game to game proposition, Plays next week but no certainty to play the following week. Just a thought

Next week will be Rooey's last HOME game. Be there. Suit yourself if you go to the 'G the following week.

Come to think of it, we've had significant retirements at the 'G against the Tigers in the last round over the past decade. G Train 2007 (a win), even though he later came back. Lenny in 2014 (a loss) and now Rooey (a win - PLEASE!).

My reference to silly was you saying next week should be his last game...

[stjohnc]

If it is a team game, as it is, would his form in the his last few games warrant another game; on form only. He is playing injured. Any one other than Roo would have been dropped (Maybe not Weller

My reference to silly was you saying next week should be his last game...

But why?

If we are gone re finals send him off at home and retire him a week early
