I get the feeeling that part of the arrangement with Roos is that when his initial contract is up he will take over as head of footy.

This is just speculation on my part, but I am wondering if anyone else thinksthat this is a good chance to happen? Yes I know its hard to say and its only early days, but PJ is a great planner and forward thinker

    Should probably change the thread title then...

    At the 8:15 minute mark of his initial press conference, Roos mentioned that he would have a longer term relationship with the club in some other way....So it makes sense that he will continue at Melbourne (just not sure in what position)

    Put a ? after the title.

    I don't think it will be the role Mahoney is in, but I think we can keep him around in an overseeing role that will allow him to explore what interests him and allow us to do what interests us; namely keep him on the payroll.

    I said this when we first got him that he would eventually end up overseas out FD.

    I for one would welcome it.

    Edited the thread title, sorry about that

    Director of coaching mentoring the new senior coach and probably getting involved in development in some role I'd hope.

    Use his coaching skills and expertise not stick him in administration.

    I prefer to look at the now

    but if i was to make a prediction i would say No

    I would like him to set up a "Demon Academy" along similar line to what he did with the swans.

    It would almost take us back to the days when we had Reserves , U19's and U17's

    A group of selected kids who are on a scholarship,but still linked to their TAC club.

    They can use the club facilities and get development support.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
