Me too DD

Any club for that matter especially south of the murray

You can approach chocco and eade during the season I believe you can't appointment/announce them until they have finished their season thus no one leaving with a couple of games to go etc etc

I don't even think that we can interview them until the season is over.

It's irrelevant whether we can or not.

PJ has publicly stated that we won't speak to candidates without gaining permission from their employer first.

It's Roos or Craig I'm hearing, from a very credible source.

Does your source give a time frame AF?

Roos is out of the race according to Gerard Healy on 3AW tonight.

He was asking Dees Supporters if they had a choice between Craig,Williams and Eade,who would you choose?

Choco with a really good new senior assistant coach, say Scott Burns or Cameron Ling.

Craig and Viney to stay on at the club in some capacity.

Junior to come back to the club in some capacity.

Misson's position to be maintained.

Pretty sure we have spoken to at least one of them, wouldn't call it a formal interview though.

yes he did. Question is, if he does get permission from the other club, does that override the AFL's rule that he can't talk till the season is over?

So many sources....I wish someone would have a non-credible source for once...

Apparently Roos is the only one we've spoken to.

Posted

Nope. Unfortunately.

Is both an option?

That'd be nice. I don't anymore. Just that they are the only two being realistically considered.

Yeah, Roos. He doesn't have a season to wait to end.

Posted

That is what PJ said.

Exactly. I took rjay's post to mean that PJ had spoken to more than one.

information, disinformation , misinformation

Remember rule #1 of the media " when any real news doesnt exist, make it up !! "

Better still: Footy is lies.

Roos has been talking to Brisbane too. And given that the AFL is every bit as worried about the Lions as they are about the Dees, there is every chance Roos will head north to Brisbane (although West Coast presents a solid coaching environment). And, and since the AFL wants an experienced hand at Melbourne, Craig or Williams would be seen as good fits for the Dees.

Voss is set to be offered another 2 years isnt he ?

"Set to be offered another 2 years" is not will be offered another 2 years. The Brisbane heavies can hardly come out mid-season and say Voss is in the gun, and they would be stupid not to inquire about Roos' availability.

As with any of this its too early in the play. A couple more acts to come yet.

Its a bit like a dime store detective novel. Lots of nothing wrapped in poorly stitched blindsides.

Craig utterings translated are possibly :" I'll only really put my hand up once I know theres a vacancy, otherwise I look a dill."

The wiser ones are playing it to the script, the idiots aka the lesser endowed ( intellect ) journo's are still falling for the crumbs.

This is about timing. It simply isnt right nor does it suit the majors players. Roos would only entertain it once the new board and FD have shape and credo. I dont think hes really swayed either way for a PP though like anyone youd say thankyou. He might be swayed by what sort of longer term help the AFL has in mind. If Roos came hed have to do it for 5. # is unlikley to see top line results and Im sure thats what hed want to be gauged by. If 5, then he ( nor anyone ) would be inclined if the hand up was only for a season as such.. "Here you go, mind your step....bye "

Eade and Williams would sign on a phonecall Id reckon. Craig is the fox. hes not silly

Far from being worse gig in town , coaching the Dees is starting to get some shine. PJ is steering this well imho

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
