"Paul Roos: The Eagles will be compelled to make one last phone call before the Sydney 2005 premiership coach commits to Melbourne at the weekend."

On the Superfooty website. Have instructed PR to turn his phone off!

I'd rather he answers the phone call and just yells JESSE HOGAN!?!?!?!?!?! and then hangs up :)

How in the world could you guys think Roos would take a job in Perth, after knocking back Brisbane because of family reasons? Perth is even further away.

It's NSW, Melbourne, or nothing for Roos.

if we're offering $8 mil WCE would have to be offering at least $10 mil to go to the filthy old hole that is Perth

then again they have more money than God so who knows

Says the guy who tweeted that Buddy was coming to the Dees.

He didn't actually. That was clarified too. But in the spirit of this thread you go ahead and post and incorrect piece of information.

Russel Barwick just tweeted " first time in history three clubs are going to press their cases to a head coach, WCE, melb and Bris to press cases to Roos "

Not sure he has been following the story very well lately, Roos has said 100% no to Brisbane and has met MFC players haha.

Mark Robinson just stated WCE should give PR a call tonight out of due diligence.

And wouldn't the Demon Supporters be dirty if they snatched him from under their noses.

melbourne fc just tweeted 'no announcement on coach tonight'

Amused that he had to say that... does it, in it's self imply that there will be an anoucemnet soon?

Robbo and Gerard on AFL360 have just said that WC should give PR a call just to make sure he ain't interested.

That way they can say they at least tried and spoke with him about the job.

Robbo said he still thinks PR will coach Dees but said imagine how dees supporters would feel if WC got him.

God I hope the presser is tomorrow and this doesn't drag out cause the longer it goes the more worried I get.

I am almost certain they will ask, Roos will say sorry, family reasons i can't move to perth and they will wind up with Scotty Burns as coach

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!

Had enough I am walking to my garage!

Says to me that one will come eventually, but not tonight

yep, I tried to word my comment in a manner which didnt seem like stating the enevitable but to promote thought... guess i need to work on it.

Can anyone answer this question re Roos' coaching history.

What is the lowest position from which he has taken over a side?

What is the lowest position he has ever coached a side to?

    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. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
