    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..

    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.

    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...

  • 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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
