Totally agree, still in the process of deciding, talk up the list abit, really have to be 100% sure, still things that would need to fall into place, had a great talk with leadership group, great bunch of young men..

some sort of dribble and then hopefully a presser tomorrow morning

Hahaha, still need to sort things out.

Tomorrow "yep, sorted it all last night"

Well he went from i 100% don't want to coach to i am 50-50 in what a day?


AFL360

Why 360 over OTC? Wouldn't hearing what Roos has to say be more revealing then what Robbo or Gerrard have to say?

Hopefully he can turn our fortunes around as quickly as he changes his mind.

?? years

 

Work before kids?

Good bloke.

Need work to pay for the demands of the kids! Must be a bad parent!

We want 3 years Roos wants 5 my god if that's all that's holding it back give him the 5 or minimum 4


Why the hell wouldn't we want to sign him for 5 years?!?!?!?!

We want 3? We are high.

Five years is the minimum time it will take to turn this rabble around.

Give him 5 years Melbourne. You can always sack him mid-contract, it's our signature move.

Why the hell wouldn't we want to sign him for 5 years?!?!?!?!

Couldnt agree more.. My concern with him was that hed duck out after a couple. He wants 5 give him 5 ffs !!

Dont believe what you hear on the news

5 years would have been agreed to right off the bat

you really thunk the MFC is in a position to play hard ball with Paul Roos? LOL

And do you really think PJ would be stupid enough to scare him off at the last minute?

Channel 7 are talking out their ass, they are as clueless as anyone

Jesus tapdancing christ if that is true we should start a sack PJ thread! hahaha

if he wants 5 years i'd lock him up, 5 years of a premiership coach would be a terrible outcome for the club... haha

I know, I'd hate to possibly be successful for 5 whole years. 3 is enough.

In fact, I'd also offer Frawley a one year contract next year.

P.S.-didn't some spud of the Gillies/Pederson persuasion get 3 years? That alone should guarantee Roos a 16 year contract.

suspiciously like smoke and mirrors lol

For god's sake don't tell Roos pedo has a three year contract, he will run for the hills hahaha

Sorry I can't watch either. I meant the Paul Roos one, OTC


Nup wrong way round demonland, kids, mrs, dog, work!!!

Nup kids,dog,work.mrs!!

30 yr contract, the name of the club is being changed to PAUL ROOS, just what I heard guys source is usually impeccable

True.................. 011112-Scully-Trengove.jpg

GWS and GCS were given special permission to sign contracted players when they joined the competition. That has since been closed.

 

Nup kids,dog,work.mrs!!

Your mrs must be one bad women k!

It makes me laugh how Channel 7 and others have talked about what is being proposed and how there are sources or sauces and the one thing PJ and others have brought to the club is the ability to do business negotiations in private. this is so unlike previous years. This shows a level of professionalism that gives me great hope for the club. It makes it harder for us supporter mind you but the saying is so true that lose lips sinks ships. Fremantle's poaching of Ross Lyons is a perfect example of getting the business done without having running commentary or it being played out in the media. The outrage many felt over the way it was done was from the media and i reckon the outrage was more in that Ross and Fremantle did it quietly with out any one working it out before they wanted.

That's what makes it interesting that Paul Roos was the one to break the news and not MFC which to me speaks volumes about his intent. Loved the reaction of Eddie and Jason on the panel. Can't wait to hear the official news if and when it arrives.

  • 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.
