But Roo has achieved more then Buddy besides the premiership.Marcus1232 wrote:that holds as much merit as Lance franklin saying I never want to leave hawthornSaints94 wrote:Does anyone remember the interview Roo had when we played the Lions in our first Nab Cup game? from memory he said " I am very happy at St.Kilda and i have NO plans on moving to the Gold Coast".
i'm pretty sure he didn't put that much emphasis on the "no". He was playing down immediate speculations of him moving to GC in the near future, but he kept his options open for the time after that.Saints94 wrote:Does anyone remember the interview Roo had when we played the Lions in our first Nab Cup game? from memory he said " I am very happy at St.Kilda and i have NO plans on moving to the Gold Coast".

Roo will play 300 games for the St.Kilda football club, if we win a premiership or two with Roo and he is in his late 20's to early 30s i would trade him for some early draft picks to set up our future.clarky449 wrote:Unfortunately i think roo will be playing out he's last days up there

His parents would be cranky if he did. Aside from that fact his Dad follows St Kilda, they have just sold their house and shifted to Melb. His brother shifted to Melb 2 yrs ago. Why would they do that if he was coming back?clarky449 wrote:Unfortunately i think roo will be playing out he's last days up there

here we go again....
"woe is me, our club will be trampled on, our stars will be poached...boo hoo.."
What garbage!
Every other club is just as much risk, if not more of losing a player to GC. Back in 2003, everyone was crying that in a few years we would lose one or two of our high draft pick players to one of the bigger clubs because of the money they would offer.
None of that happened. Its not just the money, the player will WANT to go before any deal is done.
Also, Lenny is from NSW, how come he hasn't been poached by the swans yet?
It doesn't matter at all what a players native state is, as to whether he moves or not.
So relax people....jeez.
