If it doesn't happen tomorrow then I guess we just have to wait... but I am becoming impatient lol!

I'm impressed you're only at impatient.

I think most of us left impatient in our wake several days and several hundred posts ago.

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.".

"See you all tomorrow at the presser!"

What is going to happen if there ain't no presser called tomorrow guys and gals?

Don't think I could live through another day like these last few.

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

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!

I'll be watching the Footy Show tonight - hoping for either a whisper to come through from the BnF, otherwise an update from Damian Barrett. Surely he'll get Garry involved for some information or 'opinion'

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.

If we're lucky Barrett will tell us who will win the 2002 Melbourne Cup.

Can we get Roos to commit to both jobs?

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?

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

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.

    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’

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
