WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - PAUL ROOS

[La Dee-vina Comedia 16,811]

Josh Mahoney said at a function that under the new rules they are not allowed to announce a new coach until the day after the grand final if that person is currently employed at another club.

so craig could be announced now.. however Roos and Choco we would have to wait.

Just seeking clarification. Did he say "after the Grand Final" or after that team's final game for the year?

He said after the Grand Final

[Shmity29 61]

There was a pre match function (brunch).. at a hotel across the road from West Lakes.. (forget the name)

However Jade Rawlings, Russell Robertson, Josh Mahoney and Mitch Clisby attended and Robo interviewed them all..

+ Parents of Jack Trengove, Luke Tappscott and Jack Watts where also there

It was put together by the SA Demons

Jay Clark has just Tweeted that Rodney Eade is about to announce a contract extension with the pies..

This would be irrelevant wouldn't it? Pretty site assistance can break contacts to become head coaches.

This may be standard in assistant coaches contacts, although perhaps eade being a senior assistant has a downturn type of contact.

Eade isn't the guy who takes a contract just to guarantee his future just to shove it back in their faces. If this is confirmed and he's signed on then he is out of the race

The bigger question is what has made him go from all ready to interview and coach again to happy to stick to his current job. Maybe he has no interest in Brisbane, and maybe he has no interest in Melbourne either or he could've got news that someone else is in line for Melbourne.

So he said we would announce our coach then. That would mean we have already picked them and may explain the interviewing of assistant coaches to come across as assistants?

Glad your not deciding , he's another no name spud just like the last 2 spuds.

And with an "informed" comment like that, glad you're not deciding either.

According to Jay Clark, Eade is giving away the coaching caper to concentrate on the Football Director role he has been filling in the place of Geoff Walsh.

There is nothing to make transparent!

He said he is not interested in coaching next year.

Paul Roos, has told both clubs he is "definitively not interested"

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/paul-roos-tells-brisbane-lions-and-melbourne-hes-not-interested-in-either-coaching-job/story-fni5f22o-1226698787702

That article is an example of poor HUN journalism.

Read the quote - Roos said 'I've said to both of them definitively that I'm not interested in doing it'.

The journalist then re-worded it as 'definitively not interested'.

Might sound like semantics, but they're different. What Roos actually said was that he had clearly said to the clubs that he is not interested. As we know, though, that means little from Roos given he continually says qualifying things like 'at the moment that's how I feel' and 'never say never' and all that.

What the journalist made it sound like was that he is definitively not interested, full stop, no qualifications.

Im putting a hundred on Roos

[Craig Drinker 179]

Has Roos vacated the Sydney Academy position already or does that happen at the end of the home and away season?

Roos is not employed is he... didn't he just finish the Swans academy?

[dee-luded 2,959]

caw, go easy mate, go easy... or your money may go-west???

I wonder if our next Coach will have to brush off the down?

ah, another alternative tea leaf reading. Brush off the down may imply he coached a swan......

[beelzebub 23,380]

and then there were three !!

[PartyTimeJohnny 537]

Seriously, there is NO way Roos is coaching us.

Just seriously guys. Seriously.

[What 18,810]

Seriously, there is NO way Roos is coaching us.

Just seriously guys. Seriously.

Who will coach us then?

Eade is out.

It wont be Craig.

That leaves Choco as the only realistic option if we want a coach who has tasted the ultimate success.

You get the feeling we may have told him he wouldn't get the gig and the Lions did likewise.

[beelzebub 23,380]

maybe he intends to coach in a lesser serious manner

[beelzebub 23,380]

thick is plottening as we speak/write

[McQueen 17,865]

Obviously "not the type of coach we're chasing."

Or

Someone more desirable is in the bag.

[McQueen 17,865]

Geez it's going to be boring around here when the club is actually stable and we're winning games.

[iv'a worn smith 1,979]

I heard it through the grape vine. We get Voss. No sorry, Jock Mchale. No can't be him, he's long gone to God. Maybe Allan Killigrew. No, gone the same way. Nah, I've got it, the reason Grant Thomas has stood out of the media for so long was he was waiting for the Dees job to come up.
