didnt the coach searching comitee meet today?

It was yesterday as David Parkin missed the first meeting cause he had his league teams TV commitment

 

ah, fair enough!

all sounds pretty positive anyway, will be interesting for the next few days

I am very serious.

Maybe I haven't explained myself properly.

I mean that in a marriage if either one wants to do something career wise and its to the advantage of your relationship (ie good $$$ and state to live in) then you would think they would support u.

That's what I am trying to say.

Hopefully that clears it up

LOL. Mate. Have you been attending nutbean's seminars on "how to have a successful marriage" again? (Sorry, nutbean!) I don't know too many women who would just move interstate at the behest of her husband without it being a two way decision. Honour and obey died out years ago.
 

It is accurate. They were talking to Centrebet/Sportingbet and they said they suspended the market due to many calls wanting a big crack at the $1.80.

All prices for Roos on other agencies have all dropped to $2 or less

oh sorry I was talking about sportsbet - it is sitting at 1.80 now, down from 2.25 of a few hours ago

If my future husband was offered a once in a lifetime opportunity with a once in a life pay packet, I would not stand in his way. It would be selfish to do so.

And detrimental to your future shopping sprees

Things may get interersting after Monday when I believe the AFL decide on the ratification of our assistance package which may or may not iclude priority picks.

Momentum may gather re Roos as MFC coach when/if all the points of assistance we are requesting get the big tick.

I think asking your spouse to pack up and move away from where they are settled and happy as just as selfish. And it's hardly a once in a lifetime opportunity for Roos. He's done it before and gave it away on his own terms, and I doubt he's on minimum wage as the head of the Swans Academy thingy.

The AFL wont give us a PP prior to the season being over.

no, but they could give a wink and a nod to the "right" coach


Don't know if it's been reported but Peter Jackson is going on holidays from mid August to September sometime.

So we can assume it will be done and dusted prior to mid Aug?

Nice to c someone understands what I am talking about.

If its to the benefit of both of u why wouldn't u move? It's nothing to do with honour and obey but more with common sense.

No he told the AFL before appointed that he was going on holiday back in May. Just means don't expect any announcement till september maybe even early October.

Bugger.

Would u think that he would have it organised before leaving but leave the announcement until he is back?(ie all his ducks lined up)

Mark Stevens tweeted tonight that Peter Jackson is off on holiday from mid Aug to mid September - must be pretty confident he'll have the key appointments taken care of by then?!!

Sorry missed reading that

Planned well before he took the MFC gig.

I am sure when dealing with businesses and issues like the MFC it isn't simply a case of 'sorry but I had a holiday booked already'. I'd be confident he has things at hand before heading off.


The gnome?

He reminds me of one. Put a little blue jacket on him and a red garden gnome's hat on him and shrink. Wouldn't look out of place at the bottom of the garden.

Would not get too excited about corporate books suspending bets.With this market a $500 wager will send their bean counters into overdrive.All the BS about accepting huge bets is just spin,to entice punters.

These parasites are likely to ban you after 2-3 bets if you take top price,even if you lose.

Would have to assume PJ will have things sorted before he heads off overseas for a month.

Talking about going on holidays at a critical time lol

He probably needs the break hh as he's been there for a number of wks now but probably seems like a number of yrs!!!

I don't know for sure but I suspect PJ is going to follow the tradition set by one of his predecessors who left his post to attend Wimbledon. I believe PJ's break coincides with the US Open Tennis and if that's the case there's every chance that, on his return, there will be an announcement that John Tomic is one of our new assistant coaches.

:lol:

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
