To all on here, STOP HYPERVENTALATING!

Roos made it very clear that he would not interrupt the celebrations of the 2013 season by formalising his appointment before the B&F. No doubt WC will put in a phone call but as WC expect he will politely immediately reject their invitation. The reason for this is that he has already decided to coach Melbourne. Roos is not motivated by money or a better list, he wants to coach Melbourne because he sees us as the ultimate challenge, he believes he can resurrect us and do this quickly. If he succeeds he will become the absolute legend of the modern era.

An announcement will be made before Wednesday but probably before this. I am told the club is aiming for tomorrow, but this will depend on whether Roos is ready and all fine details on the contract concluded. Roos has been actively recruiting his team, I understand it includes Ling and a couple of other beauties. Roos may want to wait for his family to be back before the big announcement as he has suggested, in which case Tuesday, but he will be coaching us.

Now take a couple of deep breaths, smoke a fat one if you have to, and enjoy a good nights sleep.

Are you getting this from a "source" within the club?

I don't want to be accused of accusing another untouchable foundation "hero" of telling porkies.

Hahahahaha WOW!

Come back after a few hours and boom! Another 10 pages from nowhere.

Some absolutely STAGGERING cases of MFCSS on this thread!

It's a fait accompli.

Relax guys.

I fully expect the announcement to be put off until Tuesday though, for maximum exposure.

Relax, WE'VE GOT THIS.

Also, not heard any details on new sponsors for the club, but I've heard that rival clubs have the perception that they may be able to poach webjet.

For whatever reason, I'm not sure.

Just got home from B&F, spoke to admin staff, no idea about what is happening with Roos.

Spoke to player parents, players feel confident Roos is coming aboard.

since the '50-50' comment it has been 150 hours - 2085 posts.. so that's an average of a post every 4:20 minutes 24/7 for 6 days.. really makes you realise how massive this is for a lot of people

GNF has a track record of around 100%, if he says Roos is coach, then Roos is coach.

havent heard of any press conference being scheduled

Not yet, i was thinking before, it would be hilarious if Roos just started working as coach and noone was told outside the club, see how long it took the reporters and all their fantastic inside sorces to work out what was going on haha.

but in all seriousness, i have a feeling one of 2 things will happen today

1. he will state he is not interested in the WCE job.

and or

2. there will be a press confrence ( if this doesn't happen today it'll happen between now and tuesday. )

I'm on the horns of a dilemma.

A ban of some sort would seem warranted but I'm still the coach of the demonland/demonology footy team, we have a big game coming up against bomberblitz and dazzledavey36 is my best midfielder.

What would Paul Roos do?

:)

Compulsory name change - for 3 months he can be Milne or something like that, annoying little faeces

As hard as this is we have absolutely NO control over the decision or timing of the announcement.

If PR is meant to be the coach then it will happen and based on previous events albeit limited PJ seems to be a very professional operator.

It doesn't matter how much we shite ourselves about it and worry about Brisbane then WC trying to get PR if he's meant to coach us it will happen.

I know for a fact that if it was me I would want my family there for the big announcement too.

Put it this way if PR did for what ever reason change his mind then it would show he was not truly committed to the Dees.

Don't get me wrong I want PR and if he is meant to be our coach then it will happen.

Any one seen Paul roos on a plane anywhere at 5am this morning?

Haha... Funny you should say that. A random on twitter is saying roos was on a flight from Sydney to Melbourne this morning

Edit: apparently not a random. The twitter page of an ABC grandstand program. @MTJAGgrandstand

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
