It's season over for the Roos.

Well it's all over for the Kangaroos in 2006, after finishing 14th with 7 wins fron the 22 games. Coach Dean Laidley says that the poor kicking and return for goals has been costly for the Roos this season.


The Roos also say goodbye to Saverio Rocca who now heads to America to try his boot in the American brand of Football, his last game was played against younger brother Anthony, both were sad and happy that Saverio had ended his career against his younger brother.

The Roos lost to the Pies, 139 to 71 with the Pies bolting away in the last quarter kicking the biggest score this season for one quarter with ten goals.

The Kangaroos suffer another loss - AFL Blog 2006


The Kangaroos have suffered a heart-breaking four-point loss to Melbourne in a thrilling encounter in front of 30,392 fans at the MCG, the Demons prevailing 13.12 (90) to 12.14 (86).

Having fought back from a 20-point deficit at half-time, the Roos turned for home with a three-point lead and had increased it to as much as 12 during the final quarter, but a James McDonald goal in the dying minutes sealed Melbourne's victory.

In a match that had 10 lead changes - including eight in the second half - Melbourne bounced back from a disappointing third quarter to pull off a gritty win.

For the Kangaroos, Thompson led the way with five majors, while key defender Leigh Brown was outstanding down back, notching up 20 disposals and claiming 14 marks. Skipper Adam Simpson was the leading ball-winner for the match with 25 touches.

AFL Kangaroos FC Blog - Dean Laidley has again defended forward Nathan Thompson


Kangaroos coach Dean Laidley has again defended forward Nathan Thompson for his decision to bench himself against Melbourne last week.

Thompson was in sound touch having kicking five goals for the game but left the ground in the dying minutes claiming fatigue.

The Demons went on to win by four points.Laidley said the club would continue to enforce a 'self-benching' policy for certain members of the side despite the controversy Thompson's fourth quarter departure has caused.

"We have certainly three or four players that bring themselves off the ground and they're midfielders," Laidley said on Tuesday at Arden Street.

"We need to make sure we keep our heat on the footy, and that's the way we'll continue to do it."

More support for Thompson
