Taking Meth Coke to a flag or The Melbourne Football Club to number 13 at the MCG, our home.

Can you imagine the energy and the vibe as the cup is lifted.

The MFC is the challenge within our game.

A Meth Coke flag is just another one....

not having a go at you specifically, but I have read so many comments like this from various posters.. how the F can somebody make statements like this as if they are a member of Roos' immediate family.. or some sort of wizard that can read minds through a television set

about the same as people saying its a done deal.

Hardtack..... No man can have TWO masters !

Nonsense - in my case, the first Mrs Nutbean and the second Mrs Nutbean

He has not said "I do not want to coach the MFC next year."

Once he says that we can all start to build the bridge. Until then, the charade continues.

My take is that at worst, Roos is seriously considering the proposition or he would have put this to the torch " I will not be coaching the MFC".

he also gets an arseload more cash to throw around the football department, and a sold out home crowd advantage every 2nd week

WCE = the haves, MFC = the havenots

Spot on C & B

The playing field is far from level with a large tilt towards the west!

Indeed it is. Roos is 95% on board, to point of canvassing possible assistants.

Wife loves Sydney and doesn't want to move.

Money talks. Will happen.

Not only this, if he was seriously not interested, he'd be making himself look a like a DH for playing the club along for such a time.

I maintain that Jackson knows exactly what the obstacles are of which Roos says need to change he's working feverishly to remove them.

On the contrary, if they move to Melbourne, she might prefer to shop in London or New York.

For the second year in a row, the Magpies spent the most on their football department by outlaying $19.1 million, followed by the Eagles ($18.6m), Essendon ($18.6m), Geelong ($18.4m) and Carlton ($18.2m).

For the second year running, traditional low-spending clubs North Melbourne and the Western Bulldogs paid the least in football department expenditure, even less than start-up club the Gold Coast, which outlaid $15.3m compared with North's $15.1m and the Dogs' $14.7m.

We are not mentioned specifically but obviously we would be somewhere around $15.5m compared to the Eagles $18.6m

So there's your answer.. 3 million bucks = an arseload

We are spending the same as Hawthorn, I believe around 17mil.

My understanding is they connected when he was playing for Sydney then got married in Texas and moved to Sydney full time.

Am I wrong?

    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.
