You don't meet with the leadership group and discuss your game plan unless you're damn sure you're gonna be coaching them. Paul Roos is locked and loaded.

I am sure he is about to sign, but you don't talk like this to journos if you already have.

All these assistants we are lining up would hear it and think 'what are they doing?'

I don't think he has signed a contract yet and that is what we are telling these prospective assistant coaches. Once he signs on the dotted line then we sign up everyone else.

I know he is playing the media here, but I don't think he has anything more than intentions at this stage.

In yesterday's coverage, Healy kept saying "They will be better with Roos coaching...if he signs"

He was always saying something then, adding after a short gap, if he signs. Healy knows, he said he asked his brother and could not repeat what was said... Then said its too busive for TV with a massive smirk on his noggin

He also stated 50 + 50 equals 100 about 3 times.

Knows his math Gerald.

Im not sure if many are up with how a lot of magicians tricks are conjured. The actual events have often taken place early. The rest is smoke and mirrors to obsfucate the audience . Sound familiar ?? Do here, make'm look there...

Roos wouldnt have said boo to us had not Tammi and co given him the green light months and months ago. This is all a show for public consumption.

Craig said in the Presser, that the exit interviews start on Wednesday. You would expect the coach to be involved in them. Even if it were a new coach.

Reading between the lines here, but I interpret that as Neil has been asked to catch up with PJ for a coffee on Wednesday.

That's a costly coffee - he is contracted for $400k+ next year.

The exit I envision for Craig is one of his own volition.

You certainly sense he's an honorable man dont you.

A certain manager of a certain high profile, high draft pick who's contract is up, has told me that it has been confirmed to him by our club that Roos will be coach.

This story has played true since I first discussed it on here in May. Now I am waiting to collect my winnings from the dam bookmaker who would only let me bet $20 @ odds of $8. Hope a few others here took my advice.

When confirmed this is the best possible news for our Football Club.

Only a coffee at this stage RP.

They interviewed Craig in the pre-match show yesteday, quizzed him about the Brisbane gig. Apparently the jungle drums are beating quite loudly in terms of Craig for Brisbane.

And will this certain high profile player now do us the honor of re-signing?

Don't tell me, you hit the ouija board over the weekend?

I'm only high on post 19 point competitive loss to the bulldogs at Etihad who were probably half tanking and kicked 9 goals in a quarter. This is the kind of high I only wish Mark Neeld could've stayed around to enjoy.

As for Roos with his family. Hi there Tyler, it's me Paul. You are finishing year 12 this year. I've got a contract deal to make 1.6million a year next year, do you think I should do it?

Tyler - Hmm let me think, get me an apartment near the city that I can rent for cheap with my friends, and pay for my uni at Melbourne uni or RMIT, get us a beach house at Portsea, buy me a car, promise me a holiday at the end of each year and we'll talk. Ok thanks dad.

Agreed, except Tyler will be telling PJ his demands. Just like Scully Snr and GWS. And we'll pay. A lot less than the pie chugger cost GWS to get that one across the line. wonder if he'll be included in the Salary Cap too :rolleyes:

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
