He's looked and sounded mentally checked out all season .
The Press conferences have been glib and to be honest it sounded like he didn't care.

At the start of the season, they looked like 2013 would be a great year and his job would have been safe. How quickly fortunes change.

Wonder if this will make Roos re-consider Melbourne?

Surely W/C is a much more attractive option?

Reports are he wants to continue coaching ... His links with Shane Wowoedin and Mark Harvey have speculation rife that he will go to Brisbane.

Is the only link with Harvey the WA connection?

Yeah ... They both did a lot of work together in the media promoting the Derby etc but I think they were mates before Harvey came over this way.

The Brisbane Lions have confirmed that they will make a formal approach to John Worsfold to see if the departed West Coast coach is interested in pursuing the Lions' coaching position.
Fairfax Media can reveal that the Lions approached Worsfold's management early this week - some days before his surprising decision to stand down on Thursday.

How's this for a rumour ... Apparently Paul Roos has bought property over here ... Approximately six weeks ago.

That'd piss off Brisbane, if that's the case.

Aren't his kids still at school in Sydney?

I would love to see Roos become coach of West Coke, for no other reason than to see the colour drain from all the Melbourne supporters' faces.

Melbourne should get a priority coach. The AFL should just rip a coach out of an AFL club (kicking & screaming) and plonk him down at MFC. They should also bring in a rule that opponents are only allowed to take the field at three-quarter time to give the Demons a sporting chance.

Just like the poor kids who get selected by them in the draft.

Well, if true, it's merely an investment property now.

Funny story - Nathan Jones family are family friends of ours. It appears that Nathan's younger brother may also be drafted this year.

When I told mum this the first thing she said was

"he doesn't have to go to Melbourne does he?"

Yeah ... I think it was one of those wild (in hope) sorta rumours. Hit the radio stations hard though. I heard it on two different stations.

I have nothing but the utmost respect for Nathan Jones. Deadset champion.

Do you rate his brother ?
Anything like Nathan tell his Mum to talk to Macca.
