Gee I wonder what would've changed his mind in the past 12 weeks.. Surely not our on-field performance!?

I was told in June we were every chance, and GNF has said we were right in the hunt many times, it may just be that he hasn't wanted to declare an interest publicly until now,

backing the club in to finish the job and announce it now.

    What they say during the season is just theatre. Scully proved that. Their public comments are akin to politicians 'answering' questions. They speak a lot but say nothing.

    I think the surest sign we've landed Roos is Eade re-signing.

    why not.

    can be no announcement whilst Craig at helm.

    That would i imagine finish at around 7pm Sunday.

    Monday is good to go ?

    Is that a rule BB that we can't announce anything with Craig in charge or just ethically you wouldn't?

    Interesting that he talks about starting to see a vision of what it would look like, i'd suggest he had done that some weeks ago when he put up the article about Melbournes 2014 round 1 side and talked about how we were a very attractive challenge,

    i'd say we are right in the box seat if it's not done already!

    Screw it, going to the pub and starting the celebrations!

    He was 0%....Now he is at 50%......

    Does he need 51% to take the job..... heres hoping rather than 100%

    I said yesterday that we arent a attractive club to come and play. If Roos gets the job that will change dramatically.

    Holy Shite-balls, have taken the mrs up up to the Sunshine Coast for our anniversary, saw Roos on the telly (on mute in the pub) said to her, that's the guy we offered 1.5million to coach us and he's not interested. Then I read this! Rooooossssyyyyyy Rooooossssyyyyyy Rooooossssyyyyyy!

    On the couch should be interesting on Monday.

    Ill be stoked as I'm about to move from QLD down to Melbourne for work. Ill be at every game next year if Roos is in the hot seat. He offers hope.

  • Quote

    It's very exciting news but this is Melbourne and I am trying to temper my enthusiasm.

    I will be absolutely pizzing my pants when I see him in a presser with PJ being announced as new head coach but until then trying to keep it on the down low.

    Surely though he would have known what reaction he would have caused by saying what he has said.

    U would think he wouldn't say that and get all our hopes up if he wasn't planning to take the job cause that would be cruel. Like playing a cruel joke on the unpopular kid at school.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
