AFL 360 and On The Couch

Robbo is actually dominating on 360 tonight.

No he is not. He badgered Eade, who was in an impossible situation given his current job, to make himself look like an incisive hard hitting journalist. It was what the americans call a "cheap shot". He is a dead seat lightweight.

I'm thinking Roosey is still an 85% chance and based on what he said or didn't say during that segment On the Couch MFC would be negligent not to approach him with every thing they have.

After seeing Roos just now, he's not a definitive no.

I reckon he is toying with idea, and has quite possibly already been sounded out to do the job.

Would be an unbelievable appointment if we could get him.

I don't think any previous coaches like Roos, Mathews Eade etc will put their hand up while there is a coach in place at a club.

But once the incumbent is no long in place the game changes.

That is not to say Roos will announce he is available, I just think that he will stop saying NO in public if he has any interest.

I agree with this, & think this is a part of it... especially Roos, would not do the dirty.

Would be HUGE RD.

Roos started to say in regards to wanting to coach the dees "no at the moment I" and then MS cut him off and said no not at the moment Roosy which Roos then replied "i am the opposite to Rocket who has the desire to coach I don't"

Was not very convincing when u compare his response to Bombers which was NO I will not coach Melb but maybe we are all looking for something which possibly might not be there. Hope I am wrong.

Would love Roos to coach us.

Time will tell.

I honestly think Roos is more then happy just being a hardcore Swan supporter in which he is and that's fine. I think the way he see's it is that couldn't see himself ever coaching against the Swans.

I agree 100% with you.

I'm not convinced that Roo's doesn't want to coach MFC.

One thing I've noted about Roo's this year is that he is big on American sports, loves his basketball and doesn't get into Watts like most do, he has time for him.

Now, Jack Watts was obviously one of Australia's best up and coming talents at basketball, that is no secret and Roo's obviously thinks he can turn Watts around.

Roos has stated in the past that MFC have A LOT of talent and I am sure Roo's sees our list like some optimists here do - I am one, I think we have great talent going forward.

If I were Roo's, I'd let PJ know that I will take the job on the condition that the board is sound and the AFL allocate MFC a Priority Pick after our first round pick.

On the couch Roos had a chance to say NO I do want to coach Melbourne.....but he balked at the question and left the door open in my opinion... i reckon he is willing to be approached at the very least...

Robbo not happy with Beamer about his 'Karma is a bish' slogan.

They reckon PJ is one ruthless SOB.

PJ reckons players want out of our club and decisions had to be made for that - and membership, etc.

This. Thank God PJ has come in.

Roos's arrogance will get him to the dees.

Loves playing the "savior".

I agree. I don't really rate his as a development coach - he basically took over a side that had already made a grand final under Rocket. But he is like Malthouse - will keep going until he fails and realises he is fallible.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
