WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - PAUL ROOS

Featured Replies

what condition is the old girl JR?

Mint or a project?

Still a project, wyl. When it's finished, it'll be a decent streeter, but not concourse. Might drive her to Perth. ;)

Suspension is brand new and bolted up, paint's off and now I have a blank canvas.

Needs some rust cut out, welding done and I'm refurbishing and rustproofing everywhere.

Having said that, on 3AW Mike Sheahan said that the Roos gig was as good as done.

Matthew Lloyd was excited for the club, but Richo less so. Queried the assistance given, considering the stuff ups of the past 10 years.

Sheahan reiterated Demetriou's words that the AFL needed a 'strong MFC.'

It's getting exciting!!

Old dee, you getting fired up? Jazza?

I want a ride in the HK when she's done.

Meth Coke game in future....

I am a Ford man. GTHO...GT40 (Pants off)

But i make exceptions for the Monaro XU1 & A9X

 

exciting news

Apparently, Sheahan was seen sipping coffee with Paul Roos this morning. It's a guess but if that's true then his mail is spot on.

I still wonder if Mike Sheehan will join the board. Part Time position.

Could be good for both parties.


Peter Jackson has been invaluable to our club!

The board is a part time position 'wyl'. He does have a lot to offer though I know others think not.

 

Those worried about the $2m price tag - it is never as high as it is first reported - and we will get 10k lapsed members just from his presence and sponsors will come out of the woodwork to have their name on his left [censored] if he is coaching the club.

He will bring in more than he takes.

I like how you put this because I was choking on the idea of 2mil. but I would think the sponsors would get on board and he would bring dollars in as you say.

i know the Board is part time. That is why i said it.

Mike is still doing part time work. He has a lot to offer in that regard.


this is amazing

its like a dream

Also , $2 million per year sounds like a lot.. but it is actually small biccies when you consider all the extra members and the big time sponsors he will attract.

We are going t go from broke to swimming in money.

oh yeah and.. PETER JACKSON IS GOD

By the way how would Brent Moloney be feeling LOL

Timmy Watson just said on chan 7, from what he knows Paul Roos hasn't signed yet, but Melbourne are confident Roos will sign. Still not over the line yet guys.. We all know what happen with Ross Lyon last year.

What's the record is history of Demonland for pages on a topic? Scully a or Roos?


Tom scully would be kicking himself. Good things happen to those who wait :)

West Coast frighten me. I need them to sign Warsfold already!

They have plenty of money aswel. I think we're home. Can't see the Paul Roos shifting his family arcoss the country.. Roos is a Melbourne boy aswel. Born and breed in Vic.

Not really, he has six million reasons to be happy with his choice.

Yeah that's true :( almost forgot his on that much

If Roos comes to the MFC, I feel on balance I could cope with 2013 and the:

Neeld coaching saga.

Watts's on and off form.

Opel sponsorship falling over (don't even raise the Energy Watch crud)..

The CEO debacle.

The president and board conundrum.

The remnants of the tanking unbecoming.

Trengove's tinea treatment.

MC's foot.

Other team injuries.

Our general skill level.

I was watching the open mike with RF on you tube and thought it was interesting RF's comments about how Swooper built on what Barassi did after he stripped all the paint and putty off the team, I'm hoping Roos can build on some edicts laid down about fitness by Neeld and Mission.


I would like to see Peter Jackson standing on the flight deck of a aircraft carrier under a banner that reads MISSION ACCOMPLISED. Damn I have seen that somewhere before.

i know the Board is part time. That is why i said it.

Mike is still doing part time work. He has a lot to offer in that regard.

I thought you would and I agree.

As Wallace said on the radio, someone of the calibre of Roos pays for himself.

If the man wants to pay his own salary, I say let him. ;)

No worries.

Massive mildly worked 202 with 4 on the floor, rofl.

Those Fords are magnificent, but outta my price range.

Apparently, Sheahan and Roos were picking their best Melbourne team.

Don't think this article really has anything new (is it confirmed that he met with the leadership group)

"Paul Roos close to signing deal to coach Melbourne next season":

:wub: could someone please wake me up...

  • 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.
