Not sure if it's been mentioned, but my ears pricked up last night watching OTC when Roos said:

"it's time to put up or shut up, I DEFINITELY WANT TO DO IT, it's just a matter of seeing if the family's on-board"

That seem the most conclusive evidence yet that short of a curve ball, he'll be coaching.

No i heard that...replayed it 4 times to be sure.

    , but not for a long time have I actually looked forward to round1,

    If it's against a top 4 I probably won't look forward to it. We'll still get smashed and despair may reign supreme again.

    I probably shouldnt utter this , as this are easily regretted, but not for a long time have I actually looked forward to round1, if only to be competitive and relevant to this game. many things may or may not come after but Id like to see us take the field and do something.

    This is what we have been saying for the past 7 years bb.

    Why would PJ care when it's announced if it's only next week he wants to wait til anyway?

    Wants to announce at BF. PR all about erasing this year and starting for the next. All about respect for those that have been. Great bloke. Actually we are very lucky to have such individuals involved/ soon to be involved. The only way is up!

    Why does Roos want to wait? Anything to worry about like another offer to swoop in and undercut us?

    If its announced at the Bluey there might likely be a presser on friday ?

    I sorta guessed based on what i have seen from PJ he'd want to announce before if he could, rather than let the rumours circle.

    Whoa, is that you Jon Ralph?

    This is what Roos actually said: "To be fair to the Melbourne Football Club, to the players and the members, you've got to be fully committed to doing it. It's now time for me to put up or shut up. You've got to say, 'Look, I definitely want to do it,' but clearly the family is first."

    Craig would be interested in the job full time if certain conditions were met apparently.

    It's not hard to figure out why Roos wants to wait to announce it, wouldn't you want your family with you for support for such a life changing and big announcement I know we are impatient and want to know now but we may just have to wait

      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.
