Tactically a standout - cool under pressure and doesnt get fazed.

Makes decisions Id tip based on logic/rationale - not into emotive drivel.

Good coach. Finally we have the complete package.

during the 90 -91 season at Highbury there was a banner each weeks that simply said: George Knows
referring to George Graham the then Arsenal manager.
I reckon it's time to resurrect this for Ross.

It's good when a coach makes a move that:

(a) is made BEFORE everyone in the stand makes it,

(b) is made without anyone noticing, especially the oppostion (the best kind).

In a very competitive field, he's pretty sharp.

Yep the defensive changes he did late in the 1qtr where we hold Richmond scoreless for the next 2 qtr was just amazing. Not in any season past from recent memories that we had a coach with this ability to read the game like that. In that list I'm including Tim Watson, Malcolm Blight, Grant Thomas... Ross is a keeper that is for sure....

I like that idea for Moorabbin Wing banner.
