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.

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?

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...

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

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.

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

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
