WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - PAUL ROOS

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

From what I read a few weeks back both Eade and Williams are barred from any future coaching interviews until their respected team has finished it's season (including finals). This was something the AFLCA have put in place.

PJ has simply contacted their agents to touch base and to obviously have the message passed on that we are keen.

I believe Richmond has given us Permission to interview choco and Collingwood refused with Eade, i was told we were interviewing choco for the first time the week of the Brisbane game in Darwin.

I hope your right.

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

I hope your right.

It was on the AFL website i believe, but yeah i would have thought that would give Choco a big edge over Eade from the get go, if he didn't already have one.

I haven't read this whole thread so apologies if this has been raised previously. A mate of mine is a stockbroker with a client in Perth. Roos recently purchased a property not far from Rossy Lyon.... Lets just hope it's an investment property!

That would explain why he was on the 5:30am flight out of Melbourne the other week.

Roos youngest is in year 12 next year, not keen to move him, until he has finished school. Worsfold has let it be known he wants to coach on. He will hand over to roos at the end of 2014.

Bet I'm right.

You may well be! Have heard the same re his son and high school... Roos did say on OTC that he is not interested in coaching ' at the moment' but never say never! 12 months time might be 'the moment' ?? If Woosha gets a 1 year extension then I think the jigsaw puzzle will be complete!

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

I thought his son was in year 12 this year?

[s-t-i-n-g-a 439]

I thought his son was in year 12 this year?

Yes I thought that was his reasoning for not going into coaching last year.

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Yes I thought that was his reasoning for not going into coaching last year.

On that alone a decision before the end of the year is just silly.

[Hellaintabadplacetobe 4,297]

I thought his son was in year 12 this year?

they have 2 sons... Demondame said ''youngest" who I believe is 16.

[beelzebub 23,388]

no schools of note apparently in Melb... Amazing

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Lets just wait and see what happens

still confident we will get our man.

Are you a father?

Would you move your son about to go into his final year of school into a different state with completely different education curriculum? Especially when you aren't short of cash or out of a job. Seems pretty logical to me.

[Dee-licious 1,954]

Roos was speaking at the NGV tonight. Bucks, Ball, The North Leadership Group among the attendees. Didn't see any dees there but there were a couple of hundred in attendance. He was asked about the Melbourne coaching job by none other than Ron Barassi himself. Every other answer he gave that night was long with explanation, with that it was a simple no. However, for the rest of the night he used Melbourne as an example when he was talking about building culture within an organisation, getting the right people in etc. He thinks the world of PJ.

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

He said his son was the reason for not taking the offer last year if i remember correctly, strange he has not straight up said that was the issue this year, because one would think if it was he wouldn't even leave the door ajar, not saying that's not the case because i really have no idea

have certainly been convinced if nothing else he is on side with our club.

I am...

You happy up there ?

[Hannibal 5,814]

Hearing Rocket Eade is a lock with a big push for Adam Simpson to join him.

If it's not Roos I reckon that would be a great outcome.

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Totally agree mate, Adam Simpson would be a fantastic influence on our midfield.

[jumbo returns 6,741]

He aint coming.

Could you please fantasise about something else? Ffs.

[Hannibal 5,814]

Can't really be Eade because as far as i am aware Collingwood aren't letting us interview him, would be abit stupid to hire someone without having a formal interview.

Eade has made it clear he'd be interested in the position as he's a career coach. He said that on 360 many weeks ago. Melbourne also know his coaching credentials and ability to foster young teams.

No formal approach is required right now, but it doesn't mean that we and he aren't very interested in each other.

What's it to you, Peanut ?

Flattering, but I'm red blooded, pal.
