Bastards, of all nights!!!

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.

Bastards, of all nights!!!

Just put me out of my misery..

I was of the opinion that after they asked Eade the question that if MFC approached him that he would definitely give it a crack!


lol did you see the way Paul Roos answered Sheahans question

I have no doubt hes considering taking on the coaching gig at Melbourne

 

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.

Eade still said he has the fire in the belly.

If we wanted to chat to Rocket he would entertain it.

Bomber said no, instantly.

No, not eade please No...

eade has said that yeah, he's interested.

they didn't even ask bomber.

Its Bomba, not bomber... bomba the jungle boy...

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

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.

Will be out of Choco or Eade.....bring on Choco

Would be HUGE RD.

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...

Wish u were Roos tos.

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.

I think it was Kelleher??

He gets things done. Bit of a headkicker. And loaded

 

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.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
