His kids want to go to uni in Melbourne from all reports.

If this happens I'll have kittens!

We have contacts to get them into whatever they want...

Like DemonOx said - why bother with all the 50/50 talk if he isn't moving towards coaching again.

I am not convinced he is signed but I am convinced that PJ has been quiet because he has wanted to keep twisting Roos' arm.

Those celebrating are being a bit premature though...

    Makes it hard now for any other candidate, Roos is obviously the one we're after.

    Do you think so Bing?

    He has announced it tonight on the eve of our last game-makes sense

    Nathan Jones said last night the new coach will be announced in the next 2 weeks-makes sense

    Leigh Tudor is moving back to Melbourne at the end of the year,he will be Roos' senior assistant-makes sense.

    Rocket Eade re-signs with the Pies after most probably being told by PJ that he wasn't successful-makes sense.

    This can't not happen with all of the above,the wait is over.

    Geoff Walsh will be Footy Ops Manager.

    Done Deal

    PJ has just pulled off the almost impossible,WOOHOO!!!

    Is there a link to the fox coverage (not the article)?

    certainly an odd and provocative thing to say unless hes over the line...all things considered .

    But then this is the public consumption version of the"reality"

    This said knowing full well the gas will get turned to high .

    Done deal me thinks

    He's either the next Melbourne coach or an absolute [censored] for teasing us like this.

    And Roos wouldn't keep on saying "at the moment I'm not interested" if its to be announced soon he would look foolish that's why the 50-50 has come out

    Agree or a plick tease to be specific.

  • Quote

    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!

    Did you indulge in sexual role playing afterwards.

    Don't worry I'm not a pervert. I merely want to gauge your level of commitment.

    Well actually some misguided souls on this site will say I am a pervert.

    this explains us talking to assistants!

    Do you think so Bing?

    How could we announce anyone else now? If that happened it would always look like we were knocked back by Roos and had to settle for second best. And who else have we spoken with multiple times, as is the case with Roos? Not Craig, and not Williams if reports are correct.

    Roos might as well have said "I'm going to do it" - except that he would lose leverage in ongoing negotiations if he did.

  • Quote

    Too many things are falling into place for my thinking. It looks like Roos was signed a while ago. The "At the moment" comments from Roos to begin with but then things went quiet because of a club being drug cheats but then add no Brisbane, Eade staying at the pies and now Roos comments tonight it equals some happy days in my mind.

    So u would think Roos has given a list of potential assistants he wants to the MFC bosses so they can get all our ducks line up.

    Conveniently when he is signed then the next day or so they make the assistant announcements.

    I like it, I like it a lot.

  • Quote

    Tudor makes sense, he's been at the Swans for 2 years now, Roos would know him well.

    Though he's also been linked to the Lions as Senior Coach.

    Feel a bit for Neil Craig in this, could be a few announcements over the next week.

    Absolutely mate, how's this sound, Paul Roos, Adam simpson, Cameron Ling, Leigh tudor, Michael O'lauchlan?

  • Quote

    After Roos comments tonight it would be a MASSIVE let down if he is not the coach.

    Surely he wouldn't have said what he did if he was still only thinking of doing it and knows he is going to do it.

    • 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.
