    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.

    Just put me out of my misery..

  • Quote

    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!

  • Quote

    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.

  • Quote

    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.

  • Quote

    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.

  • Quote

    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...

  • Quote

    eade has said that yeah, he's interested.

    they didn't even ask bomber.

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

    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...

    Wish u were Roos tos.

  • Quote

    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.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
