I attended the Eagles Chairmans function at Subi on the weekend Vs Gold Coast. Alan Cransberg made no mention of Roos (joking or not) coming to Perth. He commented on "Wooshers" contract status by repeatedly stating it will be looked at after the completion of the season but was very disappointed at where they are this season. I got the feeling that he's gone and by talking to many Eagles supporters there they also think his time's up.

And BTW, if you ever get the chance to listen to Cransberg speak, take it up. Impressive.

The AFL want him to coach Melbourne, they won't leave any stone unturned, if he isn't coach next year, we will at least know there was nothing more we could have done, and Choco i think will do a very good job

Here's a question:

If we secured Roos as senior coach and after 18 months/36 games of coaching he only had 3 wins on the board, should he be sacked?

I think Roos would at least have things moving in the right direction, Neeld was untried, if we had no confidence in him how could the players?

If the win/loss ratio was the same then the losses would have to be close ones you'd think.

Stuff it offer him Two Million.

He's not about money, he's about passion, integrity, honesty & old fashioned values such.

if our challenge, looks like a challenge he can turn into something interesting & enriching for his soul, then he'll come onboard... I'm sure.

If not, Nothink will do It...

It is my experience dee-luded that the more links you have to a chain event the less chance it has of success

hahaha don't take me serious OD, I was just putting out there that there are so many chances of coaches going anywhere atmo, Roos in not a fait acompli...

IMO Roos does want to coach,,, but I've hird some say GCSuns, the Eagles, the Dees, I think anywhere is possible... that suits his philosophies.

did anyone attend the club luncheon before the gws game?

i heard jackson said the afl money was 1.5M and not 2.75M

Also said the only payback was the afl having a say on board approvals

No cash for a coach

Said what is in the press is more to appease other clubs than the reality

Any truth in this

Any comments

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    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?
