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?

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

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

anyone who chooses to watch AFL 360 must be insane

terrible show hosted by 2 absolute tossers

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.

    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.

    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.
