I know should take him with grain of salt because he's bit of a [censored] but saw Akermanis on foxsports get massively stuck into Roos for being under performing and overpaid big time, reckons media have let him get away with being a crap coach

If there is something stupid to say, Aker will say it.
Roosy will be welcome back at 2 clubs after this stint is over (sadly, his original club doesn't really exist anymore). Aker is welcome at none.

Jason Akermanis thinks Jason Akermanis would be a great coach.

Roos hasn't met my expectations and has disappointed me with the evasiveness and foolish snark at the supporters, but I'm pretty confident he's a good coach.

At least I don't think he's going to Malthouse us!

I wonder what TGR thinks of bringing in Aker as a coach? Would certainly help balance out the 'introvert' issue he's obsessed with.

do you guys ever want this club to learn from its failings; or to continue traveling that same worn track along this 50 Yr carpet, ride.

without more explanation I have no idea as to your point.

Mine was simple...The results from Roos are somewhat lacklustre...is that up for debate...really ?? Have often said though he probably a good overall holistic coach...but for mine game day sux. Weve won not a lot of games under his tutelage. Thats a FACT. I would have expected better

Aker is a headline machine and quite forgetable as such... but Roos has been paid a lot of money. Players cant play his game...and lack many of the basic skills often. That deserves a question ...irrelevant from whom

Am hoping the answer comes next year with a quantum improvement.

re Roos when rebuilding the list you do NOT want to climb the ladder too quick, before acceptances. once the list is formed mostly, then wins are prioritised. its the nature of the draft currently, & therefore also the trade incentives as well, because of this.

re the mention of clubs broader culture, surely for someone of his standing, and understanding, a mention of issues in this area are to be considered, explored, & certainly listened to with respect.. NOT to get injured & really defensive about & become attacking of the mention.

this club needs a lot of self exploration inwardly, as Jimma Stynes was so good at... this club is deluded in its perception of itself, in all its working parts, broadly speaking.

Your comments about Jimmy Stynes haven't been forgotten Aker

What kind of bloke he is/was was summed up before Brad Green's last game. Still smarting after Greeny had a go at him about the tweet about Jimmy, he wrote some load of crap about Brad being a dribbler and waste of space (?) on Twitter. Sad thing for Aker was that by the stage, no one gave a crap about him and it was summarily dismissed as the ravings of an attention seeker.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
