Podcast appearances and mentions of Paul Roos

Tom De Koning's meeting with Carlton's top brass is in the paper today, what are the ramifications of leaky clubs? Meanwhile brother Sam De Koning is expected to make a swift recovery from shoulder surgery, is only four weeks out too optimistic?  What role does a club's facilities play in the broader picture? And will we see more tackles from Brisbane this weekend? 

What's the secret to Geelong's consistent success as they continue to climb the ladder? Is a mid-match TV interview the right time for a coach to call his team 'pathetic?' Is Port Adelaide's season still alive? Plus, the team discuss the stand-out moments of Round 14.

Sam Darcy's remarkable recovery sees him return to the field, what can he bring to tonight's clash against the Saints? Kysaiah Pickett has signed a huge $12m contract extending his time with Melbourne to 2034. Winning form is good form so who's is better, the Hawks or the Crows? And it's do-or-die between Melbourne and Port.

The Western Bulldogs' comprehensive win over St Kilda sends them into the top eight, meanwhile the Saints are left wondering how they can redeem their season in front of a dwindling crowd. What is responsible for Brisbane's final quarter fade outs? Is everyone happy about the Grand Final remaining at 2:30pm? Plus, the team preview the remaining games of Round 14.

Luke Beveridge is set to remain out in Footscray until the end of 2027, so what makes a coach either sign on or walk away? Melbourne have reportedly tabled a huge offer for Kysaiah Pickett, is he worth it? Soft Cap Limit changes have been introduced to ensure assistant coaches are retained at clubs, should there be a limit on resources that actively develop talent? Plus, the team celebrate the inductees of the AFL Hall of Fame.

This round is on track to be the lowest scoring on average since 1996, what does Roosy suggest is causing such a lack of goals? What's to be gained from Andrew Dillon meeting with Bailey Smith? And Tom Stewart's bump on Noah Anderson has been cleared, does this action just need to be ruled out of the game?

The Pies held off the Demons in a one-point thriller, but should have May and Gawn kept their interaction behind closed doors? What needs to be improved to ensure players are receiving their HIA test promptly? What would Roosy say to Richmond and Gold Coast as they head off for their bye weekend? And he reminisces on his time being inducted into the Hall of Fame ahead of tonight's ceremony.

An explosive first quarter from Hawthorn ensured the Bulldogs never hit the front, but was Jack Ginnivan's taunting within the spirit of the game? Will the Tasmania Devils need to return to the drawing board? How concerned should the Gold Coast Suns be? Plus, the team preview this weekend's games.

The Devils' liar, and therefore Tasmania's AFL licence is in jeopardy as the Tasmanian Government debate the future of their premier, this can't be a good look for anybody involved. Can the Adelaide Crows back up last week's dominate performance when they face the reigning premiers in the wet? Can the Hawks turn around their form against the Bulldogs tonight, especially when they are missing Sicily? Plus, the team look ahead to the big matches of round 13.

James Sicily will be sitting out the next two rounds after weeks of speculation that he has been nursing an injury, why the mixed messages? Would former club CEOs have the clubs' or the AFL's best interests at heart when working for the league? Plus, how much will Melbourne be training their goal kicking after their inability to find the big sticks last round and will it help?

Lions' boss, Greg Swann will join the AFL executive team, what can he bring to the role to help iron out some of their persistent problems? Roosy reflects on his weekend, both watching the Swans on field and celebrating 20 years of coaching the premiership side. If injured Callan Ward can't return to the field, where would his skills be best suited? Plus, what would Roosy say to the Dockers going into their bye?

What did injured veteran Callan Ward say to GWS at three-quarter time to inspire such a comeback win against Richmond? Should a CEO apologise for post-match comment by players? Is this the best we've seen of Shai Bolton? And the team discuss how round 12 has shaped a new top eight this week.

Changes are afoot in AFL house, Laura Kane's role has been sub-divided and a new role created, what does this mid-season audit say about the current situation? Brisbane were able to hold off Essendon at the Gabba. How concerned should we be about the Hollywood Hawks? Can Nat Fyfe still make a meaningful contribution to Fremantle? Plus, the team preview the remaining games of round 12.

The Swans are rolling out the red (and white) carpet this week to mark the 20 year anniversary of their premiership win, Paul Roos reminisces about that day and lets us in on the meaning behind his iconic speech moment.  How quickly will we see some of last night's draftees on the field and will they fit into the AFL environment? And the team preview tonight's clash between Brisbane and Essendon as well as their matches of the round.

Alex Pearce has successfully overturned his three-week suspension, but it has left the AFL world confused, especially when comparing the decision to earlier 2025 tribunal outcomes. The mid-season rookie draftee list will be eagerly awaiting their footy fate ahead of the mid-season draft today, who could we see on the park as early as this weekend? And what advice would Roosy give to Carlton and North Melbourne as they head into the bye?

Fremantle captain Alex Pearce will find out tonight if his three-week suspension will be upheld after his collision with Darcy Bryne-Jones that left him concussed. Geelong will need to clarify third-party player payment concerns to avoid speculation. What benefit does Collingwood see rotating their captaincy while Darcy Moore is out? And how can players most benefit from the bye?

Damien Hardwick has hit back at Ross Lyon's calling Gold Coast the AFL's 'nepo baby' so is the academy system fair for all AFL teams? Roosy says Carlton should focus on their defence and says all teams are just 'dumping' it into the square which is becoming problematic. Does the AFL need a mid-season trade? And the team unpack the key results of round 11.

Scores were level in the final quarter but Geelong we able to keep the Dogs at bay in an exciting Thursday night clash. Who needs the win more between Brisbane and Hawthorn? Is Max Gawn still the best ruckman in the league? And the team preview the remainder of Sir Doug Nicholls Round including the Dreamtime game at the 'G.

How the Bulldogs treat former teammate Bailey Smith will speak volumes about his personality and what it takes for him to perform at his best (or worst). Who out of Carlton and GWS can snap their form slump to get their season back on track? And Richmond will be heading into their second five day turn around this season, what impact does this have on a team?

After 197 games for the Eagles, Jeremy McGovern's playing future is set to be determined by a concussion panel. With Bailey Smith set to face the Bulldogs tomorrow, Roosy explains what it's like to come up against your old club for the first time. How important is it for teams to study a winning blueprint against in-form clubs? And what more can the AFL do to offer opportunities to indigenous players?

There has been a lot of catch ups around town lately, Nathan Buckley with the Tasmania Devils, the AFL with senior coaches and Port Adelaide's coaches in crisis, or is just business as usual? What can coaches gain from time away from the game? And after a weekend that saw injuries aplenty, should teams just be allowed five on the bench?

After a beyond tragic weekend for the football world with the death of Adam Selwood, Roosy applauds McRae's handing of the news and his decision to protect the Collingwood team pre-match. How much does the Eagles' first win of the season mean to coach Andrew McQualter? Who were the biggest failures of round 10? And would the AFL benefit from an Indigenous advisory committee?

Tough. Innovative. Pragmatic with a soft side. Those are some of the words an emotional Paul Roos used to describe Australian Rules titan Robert Walls after the passing of the 74-year-old. Walls won four premierships as a player and coach with Carlton and his influence spread well beyond the navy blues. Roos reflects on Walls' legacy and recollects his farewell to the man who coached him at Fitzroy. Featured: Paul Roos, AFL premiership coach.Subscribe to the ABC Sport Newsletter

Hall of Famer Robert Walls has passed away after a two year battle with cancer, aged 74. Walls played 259 games across his career including three premierships before going on to coach, leading Carlton to the 1987 flag. He also led Fitzroy where he was the first coach of our very own Paul Roos. Roosy reflects on his former coach and friend with Patrick Stack from ABC Sport Daily. 

The AFL have issued a third statement addressing the umpiring saga that has arisen from the incident that saw Lachie Schultz concussed and play continue on-field. Paul Roos believes that someone hasn't done their job and it's embarrassed the AFL. Plus which milestone player does Roosy wish he could have coached?

Sir Doug Nicholls Round begins this weekend and Roosy and Poppy discuss how the AFL could go about getting more indigenous players into the competition, could a Northern Territory team be the answer? The rumours about Luke Jackson wanting to leave Fremantle and head back to the Demons have started up again, what impact does that have on a team whose season is in the balance? Roosy weighs in on whether an NBA style draft lottery could work in the AFL. 

Luke McDonald has avoided suspension for his incident with Jarrod Berry that left the Lion concussed, Paul Roos hopes this sends a message to the AFL. How should fans interpret the Gold Coast's Darwin form? After North Melbourne and the Lions drew on the weekend, Roosy has a novel ideal to find a winner. 

Round 9 was the closest in the AFL era with nail biting finishes almost everywhere, including the first draw of the season. The Giants pulled off another win in Geelong thanks to an impressive seven-goal haul from Jesse Hogan, Paul Roos breaks down his recent success. In Adelaide the Showdown made a strong case for why it deserves a standalone fixture, but Roosy disagrees with Connor Rozee being awarded the Showdown Medal. Speaking of rivalries, who was Roosy's fiercest rival from his Fitzroy playing days? 

In this week's BizNews Rugby Show, SuperSport Schools commentator and "rugby encyclopedia" Niels Momberg returns to talk all things rugby with insider Rory Steyn and co-host Patrick Kidd. With Round 17 of the United Rugby Championship kicking off today, the trio dissects the playoff permutations, offers fearless predictions (including a few upsets!), and debates the psychology behind Leinster's recent failures. Momberg goes deep on SA's schoolboy rugby scene, spotlighting prodigies like Paarl Gim's Markus Muller and Grey College's Ethan "Tank" Adams, while also previewing two massive clashes: Paul Roos vs Paarl Gimnasium and Grey College vs Paarl Boys' High. From URC playoff drama to rising stars and flawed scheduling at SA Schools level, this episode is packed with insight, banter, and bold calls you won't want to miss.

Collingwood have left four key players behind for their trip west against the Dockers, can Freo capitalise on this? South Australia will host their Showdown, at 28 wins each and emotions running high who will gain the upper hand? For how many teams is Round 9 a ‘must win'? And who would Roosy and Poppy like to see as captains of WA and Victorian State of Origin teams?

How can the AFL iron out consistency for disciplining players for incidents both on and off the field. Is player behaviour getting worse, why do they need to flip the bird? Do father-son rules need to be adapted to make the competition fairer? And why can't teams just announce their side at the toss?

Is Patrick Dangerfield the player of the generation? Who is Roosy's most underrated player in the competition? The team with the game plan ‘as good as anyone' in the competition at the moment and the coach that would have walked away from the weekend wondering if he can coach.

After being subbed off and given a spray in the second quarter in Round 7, Hugo Garcia excelled and was nominated for the Rising Star in Round 8. Is this a reflection on Ross Lyon's coaching and what kind of mark coaches can leave on player? Roosy attributes the Swans' 2005 Premiership win to one of his former coaches. If Fremantle have enough talent in their team, why aren't they winning? And ruckman Max Gawn had 35 disposals on the weekend, Roosy reflects on his longevity and what it was like to coach him.

In a week where Kane Cornes' feud with North Melbourne dominated the off-field agenda, it was the Kangaroos players who fell short on-field. We unpack Cornes' influence and what we've learned about the industry. Essendon's win came at a huge injury cost. NSW and Queensland derbies are incoming, who can cause an upset? Plus the team preview the remaining games of Round 8.

Is the Kangaroos' media ban on Kane Cornes a reasonable step? Roosy weighs in on that, along with the 'genuine' bad blood in Sydney and Ross Lyon's frustration with the VFL Tribunal which was labelled a 'broken system'. Plus, he's also ready to crown the Suns a Finals contender.

West Coast have tabled two massive offers for star-midfielder Harley Reid to stay at the club, Paul Roos isn't convinced he's worth it. Will Day won't be heading to Adelaide, instead he's off to hospital to have surgery on his foot that will keep him out for a big chunk of the season. Izak Rankine needs to prove his fitness ahead of Adelaide's home game against Geelong. And does the media give the state-based leagues an unnecessarily bad wrap? 

Paul Roos explains why the Gold Coast versus Adelaide game was so explosive, as well as which type of incorrect umpiring decisions are coach-killers. Where does Carlton fail in its inability to back up its first halves? Do Melbourne players look like they want to still be at the club? And the team wrap up all the round four action.

It doesn't get much bigger than Collingwood v Carlton at the MCG, will Carlton get redemption for last year's loss and their first win of the season?  Collingwood have backed in maturity, fielding the oldest team in the AFL, while 20-year-old Will White is set to debut for the Blues. Does the AFL need another General Manager? Because they're getting one and Paul Roos recounts his biggest rivals both as a coach and a player.

In another week of confusing AFL rule book interpretations, the tribunal have upheld Rhyan Mansell's three-week suspension. Should West Coast's co-captain Oscar Allen be meeting with another team's coach? Paul Roos thinks Tasmania needs to get a wriggle on with their stadium if it's a condition of their team licence and can the State of Origin's glory days be reproduced?

Adelaide will need to find a replacement for injured forward Josh Rachele, is it as simple as next man up? How can Carlton adjust their game plan to resolve their ‘deplorable' second halves? The challenge of changing game plans with the weather and Paul Roos pays tribute to Andrew Krakouer.

Paul Roos is disappointed that the Eagles didn't try to shut down Caleb Serong in their 38 point loss to Fremantle. Which of the three teams without a win should be most concerned for their season?  Is Carlton sending ‘alarm bells' to their fans by allowing their incoming CEO to sit in the coaching box? And is Rhyan Mansell's three-week suspension fair?

With constant rule changes and pressure from clubs and fans, how difficult is it to be an AFL umpire? Paul Roos says the push in the backs are at 'epidemic levels' as well as a crack down on the 15m kick, insufficient intent and protected area rules has lead the umpires to potential 'whistle fatigue'. Also, the Lions have a new den in Brisbane, Roos reminisces about his time at the GABBA.

Unlike Carlton, Paul Roos would never release his post-team address and feels 'that's betraying the players'. Is it helpful for Simon Goodwin to reveal there may have been personal reasons affecting Max Gawn's on-field performance? Andrew McQualter defends Harley Reid's gesture as 'theatre' and how difficult is it to just have 18 players on the field? Roosy recalls one particular Sydney match in 2008.

Having played under Brad Scott for two seasons, Dyson Heppell weighs in on whether Bombers fans should feel confident he's the man to take them back to finals footy. He hits back at Paul Roos' notion that players aren't working hard enough in the off season, and prepares himself for his first season in almost a decade watching from the sidelines. 

Lehmo and Sam Lane keep you across all the weekend's sport, including looking at the AFL season ahead with ABC AFL Daily co-host and Sydney premiership coach Paul Roos.
