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!

    Fark i hope this happens. I hope come monday we have an announcement. If this happens i will need to take a week off work

    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%

  • Quote

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

    Tammi must have said Yes lol

    As the great Bob Hawke once said "Any boss that makes their melb supporter employee come to work next week, is a bum"!!!

    could be an interesting presser come Monday morning

    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!

  • Quote

    On the couch should be interesting on Monday.

  • Quote

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
