I await Roos' appointment with anxious anticipation. As an old Demon supporter, I have cast my mind back. It will be 50 years since our last premiership. In that time, we have had only one coach who has coached an AFL/VFL premiership. Ron Barassi coached us for 111 games from 1981-5 (nigh on 30 years ago) that fostered the relatively-successful Northey years. Before that, there was this chap named Norm Smith. It's about bloody time we had a premiership coach.

In I suppose typical MFC fashion, I'm ready for Roos to turn around and tell us to get stuffed. However my hopes are soaring, but I'm doing the best I can to stay grounded.

It's like I'm 5 again and it's Christmas eve, except this time I won't be sleeping for the next week.

Maybe this thread can be morphed into the "sack paul roos" thread once we are 5 rounds into the 2014 season. Then it ll definitely become the longest thread.

I simply think he has a decent respect for others he would want them to have of him.

Exactly, that too. He's a guy who knows how a footy club should work.

I don't have foxtel so I don't really know about the 'branding' part. I just hope he has seen it as a way to make a living whilst not being directly involved in footy at a club level.

After seeing the professionalism of Jackson and now Roos in the last couple of months, I think we are in very safe hands going forwards lads.

Provided Roos signs on of course.

I'd say if we added up all the pages from all the different threads on Watts from just before we drafted him to now, then Jack Watts would win by a mile.

This is even excluding all the non-Watts threads that always magically turn into a debate about whether Jack will "make it" or not.

Actually that gets me thinking, do you guys think Watts will become a great player? Whats your thoughts?

On insider they just asked Lynch about being the new list manager of Melbourne, he seemed to talk the list up with that big cheesy grin he does, pretty much said its 100% for Roos to coach us.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
