well if the rumours are true that mark ricciuto's injuries are worse than suggested in the press & his retirement from afl happens at the end of the year could he be the next coach of west adelaide ?

if he did that would attract a lot of players to westies

Any less of a step backwards than your current avatar returning to Woodville in the middle of a (then) record run of wooden spoons only to eventually give them their best ever finish?

I can't see Roo coaching at all IMHO, too many business interests to keep him busy.

Why would a struggling SANFL club appoint a former player with no coaching experience ? And it would apply to any struggling SANFL club .

great way to end your career roo you idiot.

rumour at the start of the week was he had broken his ankle. to dispell the rumour at a press conference mid week according to the advertiser on wednseday he hopped on his injured ankle to prove it wasnt broken.

a day later the ankle is worse and he is now wearing a moon boot.

you are a brain box riccuito. im going to hop up and down on my injured ankle.

still he couldnt be a worse coach than the weed surely.
