Who will Paul Roos successor be?

thought we needed a thread for this given it's one of the more significant things that will happen to our club this year.

i think it will be Jade Rawlings,

i'd like to see Todd Viney

Id like to see Daniel Giansiracusa retire from the doggies and come to the Dees as Roos apprentice. He is already considered a coach in waiting and with the right bloke teaching him the ropes could be something special.

If not Gia, then Brett Kirk would have to be a front runner given his history with Roos

I've learnt my lesson.no more juniors or apprentices.jade can try out elsewhere.inexperienced premiership coaches need never apply.

Jade Rawlings my pick

I reckon Roosy will extend himself, the successor will be later.

& Frawls will stay

& we'll trade our 1st pick for another young, who's been in the system for 4 Yrs?

And I get the feeling another name player will come to the Dees at end of season.

Don't forget LBall as an assistant?

I was heckling him during last years game."shut up Gia-getakick Gia and when we won "give it up Gia".

No more wannabes .ever.

Another i am not sure is being considered by most is Daniel Cross, knows his footy inside and out, already essentially a playing assistant.

Mark Thompson's name was thrown up by a caller on SEN the other day.

Will probably be hard to remain at Injectiondon after Tird replaces him at the end of year. Come to Demons, 2 years with Roos and continues the good work

This idea is the worst I've come across.

...

I started listing reasons why, but there's so many and they're all so obvious.

Then list them.

He fits the bill for me though I would prefer Clarkson or Lyon.

agree 100% if we go from Roos to a bad coach all the good work goes out the window, Clarkson is the one i'd chase

I was thinking from the moment they kept him on that Jade was the man they were looking at. I suspect that he'll be under consideration and basically is being assessed during the year as to whether he is the man for the job or not. The fact that they kept him on when they sacked the rest of the coaches is a pretty good endorsement.

I know he was a good player, but I still think of Milburn as the guy who ironed out SOS with a very cheap hip and shoulder at Princes Park about 15 yrs ago. Nearly killed him.

On here at the 1min mark.

Yeah he was a [censored]. I hated him as a player but he was a winner. We need someone who has had a successful career either coaching or playing (and was hard). It seems from the outside like our playing can be a bit choosy about what sort of person they will respond to.

You just need to hear the way the defenders talk about Jade to know that the bloke can coach.

Who knows really? Could be anyone.... Ling would be a seemingly good choice... Tom Harley was a strong figure in turning Geelong into a power house... Brad Miller wasn't the strongest player, but as a coach, he could be made of the right stuff... Cameron Bruce might be a handy coach as well...

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    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
