watching the doggies replay atm... they mentioned to gerrard how most new coaches wait a year before they make list changes, and asked what he think roos would do... he didnt think that would be the case as roos had been watching us very closely for a long time now.

On a serious note, would Roos use M Voss as an assistant? Reading todays Aged makes me think we could get a bargain.

I wouldn't be opposed if it happened, I think I just assumed Voss would look to head back into the media (could take Roos place on the couch!)

I think I would like to see Micky O, Ling, Tudor, George Stone etc as assistants, but I can't give you a reason why them over Voss...

I'd expect there to be a wink-wink nudge-nudge announcement at the B&F tonight - and an official announcement tomorrow (no inside info - just an educated guess)

If not, then I'm sure there's another no-name assistant who can spruik a few mean cliches waiting for us out there somewhere... lol..

I wouldn't be surprised if PJ finished the evening with an announcement to the effect that "you can look forward to some special news concerning the club in the next day or so.".

Might be easier to say

"See you all tomorrow at the presser!"

Where does the rumour that the announcement is going to be tomorrow come from? From all the things that i can see, points to the announcement (if there even is one) being next Tuesday

I can't handle this stress anymore. 95% sure has now become not enough. I won't relax until i see him with a red and blue tie on (or melbourne polo, his choice) and he is flanked by PJ and Bartlett. Then I can start stressing about 2014 and everything will be back to normal.

Great work with Clive Palmer this morning KS.

Relax, if not tomorrow over the weekend.

Confirmation of a Liberal Landslide and Roos to Dees would make an awesome weekend for me!!!!!!!!!!!

GNF you've actually hit on something here. The worst possible day to announce our new coach would be the day before a Federal Election. It's dumb and I just don't think a guy like PJ would let it happen.

Tuesday it is folks!

We were all banging on about how MFC was stealing the media spotlight a few years ago when Neeld was hired and all his assistants and their assistants joined. Look how that's turned out?

The signing of Roos is massive compared to a new PM.

Make it tomorrow!

Meet you at the west gate at 2.05pm... We can make some money selling razor blades...

Cards if it ain't announced tomorrow I won't be at the west gate cause I will be sitting in my car in the garage with the windows down and the engine running!

Paul Roos keep saying he is all about his family, his family apparently arrive back next week, the reason I think Tuesday is Paul Roos wants his family there for the announcement.

The announcement will be made when the time best suits the club and Paul Roos

opposite i would have thought. post sat is all about the election and new gov together with the finals.

With media blackout on political ads til election over tomorrow is perfect for an announcement.

Not to mention one of Carlton or Richmond bowing out.

I had forgotten all about this.

There'll be one reason to smile at a minimum then :)

Is anyone else hoping Carlton wins just so Richmond go to 8th, but we can tell their fans it should be 9th because of Essendon?

    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?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
