Will he bring Ross Lyon? It was Lyon who was the brains behind the Swans' two grand finals in 2005 and 2006.

So Longmire took a back seat?

 

Dawes interview interesting in regards to coaches. Also gives a good insight into what Craig has done since taking over i.e making players train in the gear they wear on the game day (no skins) etc. Worth a listen:

This guy just oozes smarts, leadership and class. He's a future senior coach, is Chris Dawes.

Damn, my ex boyfriend worked for sportsbet, would've been able to find out what was happening!!

Don't let that hold you back, give him a call the good folk of DL need to know!


Maybe he has asked if a couple of handshake agreements may be able to loosen up if he comes on board.

 

I'm waiting for the day Roos says just plain no. Until such day, he is as much of a chance as any other candidate.

Come out and say "it's not going to happen, I will not coach Melbourne next year" and I'll move on. Until such time, I am holding onto the dream like a fat kid holds onto his ice cream.

Would that be Demon Danielle?


They better not let Williams slip through there fingers chasing someone that continually brushes us off, Roos is a pipe dream, his hearts not in it, time to move on.

Roos has said that things would want to change (within him) for him to want to coach again. Who knows what this means? Could Roos be saying that he doesn't want to coach the MFC in their current structure? That's not saying his heart isn't in it, that's just demanding a level of professionalism that he expects if he were to consider applying.

I don't think that's a bad thing. An experienced, premiership coach wanting to see changes before he makes his mind up - would've thought that was perfectly fine for what we are wanting.

He will bang it on the head tonight, it's a pipe dream, he said 2weeks ago OTC he won't do it.

"It has been a massive go, we don't normally see this much action in a coaching market unless people have some inside information," Centrebet's Michael Felgate said.

James Hird.

That's all.

Did he say he won't? Didn't hear him say that.

What normal person would believe a single word that came out of Hirds mouth?

While I agree that we should not get Blight-ed, we cannot 'interview' Williams or Eade until September/October so don't fear the wait - the wait is going to be there. We won't miss out.

I am very confident that one of Roos, Williams, Eade, or Craig will be head coach next year.

Actually no he didn't say that at all, the fact that several months ago he said no, and now he is actually prepared to talk to PJ says otherwise in my eyes.

I would be amazed if he said ANYTHING definitive tonight.

Primus said something definitive, Roos recently has been anything but that.

Now you're just stabbing your credibility in the heart.

Where is he going mjt?

I am not aware of any other positions on offer at the moment.

If my memory is correct the only jobs up are Us, Lions and Eagles

No one can talk to Williams till the end of August and with the tigers likely to be in finals then early September.

And after that who's says he is better than Eade or Craig?

Theres always positions on offer, it's AFL, look at St Kilda and Fremantle, anything can happen.

My feeling is that ths whole paul roos betting plunge is a load of crip. Punters can only bet 20 on it so the bookies couldn't care less about losing money on it. just a publicity stunt by the bookies and it has worked as everyone is talking about it.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
