inorite!?

 

I attended the Eagles Chairmans function at Subi on the weekend Vs Gold Coast. Alan Cransberg made no mention of Roos (joking or not) coming to Perth. He commented on "Wooshers" contract status by repeatedly stating it will be looked at after the completion of the season but was very disappointed at where they are this season. I got the feeling that he's gone and by talking to many Eagles supporters there they also think his time's up.

And BTW, if you ever get the chance to listen to Cransberg speak, take it up. Impressive.

Would need to offer him 2 million a year over 5 years to get him to this rabble


He would need unprecedented control of any and ALL aspects of the playing group.

no questions asked.

just throw as much money as u can at the man and then sell us hope..

we will pick up the bill

just please :mellow:

The AFL want him to coach Melbourne, they won't leave any stone unturned, if he isn't coach next year, we will at least know there was nothing more we could have done, and Choco i think will do a very good job

Here's a question:

If we secured Roos as senior coach and after 18 months/36 games of coaching he only had 3 wins on the board, should he be sacked?

No...just shut up shop

I think Roos would at least have things moving in the right direction, Neeld was untried, if we had no confidence in him how could the players?

If the win/loss ratio was the same then the losses would have to be close ones you'd think.

Stuff it offer him Two Million.

He's not about money, he's about passion, integrity, honesty & old fashioned values such.

if our challenge, looks like a challenge he can turn into something interesting & enriching for his soul, then he'll come onboard... I'm sure.

If not, Nothink will do It...

hahaha, just sayin', rumours were,,, a house in Perth, buddy to GWS, Clarko to leave if Buddy stays, Woosha has splitup apparently, & some have him out of there... theyre's 3 top coaches 'said to be floating'... permeatations could be anyting.

probably both of us, but you never know.

unless you do?

It is my experience dee-luded that the more links you have to a chain event the less chance it has of success

ME

id take 50 on that

hahaha don't take me serious OD, I was just putting out there that there are so many chances of coaches going anywhere atmo, Roos in not a fait acompli...

IMO Roos does want to coach,,, but I've hird some say GCSuns, the Eagles, the Dees, I think anywhere is possible... that suits his philosophies.

I reckon you have the order right there mate

did anyone attend the club luncheon before the gws game?

i heard jackson said the afl money was 1.5M and not 2.75M

Also said the only payback was the afl having a say on board approvals

No cash for a coach

Said what is in the press is more to appease other clubs than the reality

Any truth in this

Any comments

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
