So what happened sorry, Roos was at the MCG with PJ and co tonight?

Roos and PJ met with the other directors of the MFC at the G tonight apparently.

Posted

the next question will be - who will sign up first - Hogan sign his extension offer? Watts?

Meeting with Directors would normally mean a contract signing type situation correct?

Watts - 4 years

With what has come to light in the last couple of days..... most of Neil Craigs last match day presser changed tact from the norm.

It seemed to me he was talking up the need for a priority pick and said the list wasnt up to it. Whereas in the past he stuck to where we had improved blah blah.It was like a hard sell on his part. The last presser I just thought when I heard him speak, he was taking another avenue to convince the AFL we need picks.Now I am convinced he knew what the likely outcome who was to be the coach , therefore didnt talk up the team improvements in the game as in previous pressers. Perhaps his coaching position meeting was more an update on Roos almost over the line or is to be coach,and they wanted his views and opinion on matters regarding his position and any input he had to offer. My take was he reverted back to selling the club and its requirements, rather than a coach talking up the team as a whole. My gut feeling as is most on here, is that we have our man,just a few loose ends that needed to be tied up.

For those that wanted to know what Phil Cleary said on Ch2 today. He said Roos has signed with Melbourne, then a pause, then finished with, almost a done deal. I went from elation to tell me something i dont know whithin a matter of seconds.

I am not sure if it helped but I apoligised to Roos for belting the Swans in Rnd 17,2010 (he worst defeat as a coach) I hoped he didnt hold that against us. ;)

I don't wanna get my hopes up too much, i thought we had Ross Lyon, but meeting the directors on a saturday night at the MCG can only be a big positive, what other reason could they possibly have?

As MFC supporters we have been through it all - if you want to pick a mini tragedy or a mishap its really hard to pick where to start - 70s? 80s? 90s? or now?

In recent times losing Scott Thompson was a blow, but since then we have tried to attract multiple players to the club - Judd, Acker, Ball etc - and they all viewed us as a complete joke of a club. Dwayne Russell even suggested that future players and draftees would go and get supreme court injunctions so that they aren't drafted by the dees.

Really since the hope at the end of 2000 I cant think of a time when I have (potentially) been more upbeat about out future which seems odd in a year when our list was probably the worst I can remember since certain years in the 80s. And that is only because FINALLY we might actually be getting our man!

With the figures being bandied about he will be able to buy a new house whenever the old one gets dirty.

I wonder what Grand Flag has to report RE rumours? I have heard nothing through the contacts I have cultivated. Nothing at all but smiles.

I heard if we get to 150 pages of posts about this issue he will rate our commitment as supporters and sign up.

Please don't refer to anything Dwayne Russell says as gospel.

I'll go back to the mid 60's This wouldnt make up for the hurt since those days, but its the best news since RDB came back to the club

I'll throw in Templeton, Tilbrook for starters as getting my hopes up, they bombed.

Just to clarify, I dont mean it to sound like If we get Roos he will bomb, more the point, i have got my hopes up many times only to be let down time and time again.

Hmmm I'm too classy for Warney. My man Parker drives me around in a roller you know. I'm a cut above Liz Hurley I think.

I'm sure you are but it's never been made clear enough : whose partner are you exactly?

If you don't support either dockers or West Coke it is miserable because anything else outside those 2 clubs does not exist. Perth is still a very insular place to live, place is full of cashed up middle class bogans...nah unless you like surfing, that's about it.

How about you take your opinion, put a little lube on it and insert it sideways deep into your a**e.

Oh thanks for that little gem! Sadly for you others do have opinions.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
