Theres no ulterior motive

He is there as a guest as he took on the task of restoring the most dysfunctional footy club in history, and they would love to talk to him about the things he has implemented since hes been there, the state of the club when he arrived, all the sacking he has had to do and thee search for a new board, president and coach.

Even a non MFC person would think hes a great choice as guest.

Wouldn't mind seeing Roos put pen to paper on tele.

Sheahan and Healy were carrying on about how his signature is a couple of weeks away (a couple of weeks ago).

Dreaming?

Most definitely.

WWE style contract signing where it ends with the couch being tipped over and Gerard being thrown through the set.

I think they should go with this whatever.

The answer to that is that he wouldn't, he simply wouldn't go on if it was going to do 1% damage to his chances on signing target #1

either there is more to this, or the coaching situation will not be bought up at all.

The coaching will be brought up as its probably the most important topic at our club at the minute.

Commentators at half time on SEN coverage of the Sydney v Richmond game today laughed at the possibility of Roos coaching Melbourne. One thought he might be a chance at WCE if their board thinks its time for Woosha to go.

Same on the ABC. Didn't feel great listening to it but it is the reality of being the worst team in the league and at least 5 years from winning games regularly.

Half time of the Sydney v Richmond game the commentry team were talking about the state Melbourne & Roos said 'Yeah look I don't know what's going on down there' as if to say we're a basket case. I don't think he's any chance of coaching us.

Asking Roosy if he doesn't want to come would be another chapter written in the big MFC book of quick fixes/cheap gimmicks. We need someone who wants to be there (for more information, see Malcolm Blight/St. Kilda).

The comparison is odious as they say in the classics. I have no doubt, if Roos commits, he will be just that............ committed.

I like your optimism and to be honest, I think Paul Roos is smart enough to turn down the money. A more cynical part of me says that Melbourne will just throw a heap of AFL sponsored cash at him until he says yes. I guess my bigger point is that he needs to be signing on for more than just the dough. Mal Blight signed on for mostly money and ended up burnt by the experience. I hope, in the best case scenario, Roosy re-establishes my faith in football values by coming to Melbourne because he is motivated by the challenge or, in the worst case, he says no because the challenge doesn't appeal to him (but we find a good experienced coach anyway).

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
