I'm not sure the Saurus Guard have an option to roll. I have read the Selfless Protectors to be mandatory. There is no mention of options in the ability.
Every spell can only be attempted once. So even if your mystic shield* cast fails or are countered, you cannot attempt to cast it again.
Each wizard can also only cast or attempt to cast one Endless Spell per hero phase.
*Mystic shield is just an example.
