Absolutely spot. The fact Mike Sheehan son tim tweeted as early as round 2 about us talking to Roos was also true. AFL phone Roos and put in a case for him to come back to coaching. Neeld was a dead m

To all on here, STOP HYPERVENTALATING! Roos made it very clear that he would not interrupt the celebrations of the 2013 season by formalising his appointment before the B&F. No doubt WC will put

A certain manager of a certain high profile, high draft pick who's contract is up, has told me that it has been confirmed to him by our club that Roos will be coach. This story has played true since

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.

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!

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?

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
