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

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
