His kids want to go to uni in Melbourne from all reports.

If this happens I'll have kittens!

We have contacts to get them into whatever they want...

Like DemonOx said - why bother with all the 50/50 talk if he isn't moving towards coaching again.

I am not convinced he is signed but I am convinced that PJ has been quiet because he has wanted to keep twisting Roos' arm.

Those celebrating are being a bit premature though...

Makes it hard now for any other candidate, Roos is obviously the one we're after.

Do you think so Bing?

He has announced it tonight on the eve of our last game-makes sense

Nathan Jones said last night the new coach will be announced in the next 2 weeks-makes sense

Leigh Tudor is moving back to Melbourne at the end of the year,he will be Roos' senior assistant-makes sense.

Rocket Eade re-signs with the Pies after most probably being told by PJ that he wasn't successful-makes sense.

This can't not happen with all of the above,the wait is over.

Geoff Walsh will be Footy Ops Manager.

Done Deal

PJ has just pulled off the almost impossible,WOOHOO!!!

certainly an odd and provocative thing to say unless hes over the line...all things considered .

But then this is the public consumption version of the"reality"

This said knowing full well the gas will get turned to high .

Done deal me thinks

He's either the next Melbourne coach or an absolute [censored] for teasing us like this.

Agree or a plick tease to be specific.

Holy Shite-balls, have taken the mrs up up to the Sunshine Coast for our anniversary, saw Roos on the telly (on mute in the pub) said to her, that's the guy we offered 1.5million to coach us and he's not interested. Then I read this! Rooooossssyyyyyy Rooooossssyyyyyy Rooooossssyyyyyy!

Did you indulge in sexual role playing afterwards.

Don't worry I'm not a pervert. I merely want to gauge your level of commitment.

Well actually some misguided souls on this site will say I am a pervert.

Do you think so Bing?

How could we announce anyone else now? If that happened it would always look like we were knocked back by Roos and had to settle for second best. And who else have we spoken with multiple times, as is the case with Roos? Not Craig, and not Williams if reports are correct.

Roos might as well have said "I'm going to do it" - except that he would lose leverage in ongoing negotiations if he did.

Too many things are falling into place for my thinking. It looks like Roos was signed a while ago. The "At the moment" comments from Roos to begin with but then things went quiet because of a club being drug cheats but then add no Brisbane, Eade staying at the pies and now Roos comments tonight it equals some happy days in my mind.

this explains us talking to assistants!

So u would think Roos has given a list of potential assistants he wants to the MFC bosses so they can get all our ducks line up.

Conveniently when he is signed then the next day or so they make the assistant announcements.

I like it, I like it a lot.

Tudor makes sense, he's been at the Swans for 2 years now, Roos would know him well.

Though he's also been linked to the Lions as Senior Coach.

Feel a bit for Neil Craig in this, could be a few announcements over the next week.

Absolutely mate, how's this sound, Paul Roos, Adam simpson, Cameron Ling, Leigh tudor, Michael O'lauchlan?

After Roos comments tonight it would be a MASSIVE let down if he is not the coach.

Surely he wouldn't have said what he did if he was still only thinking of doing it and knows he is going to do it.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
