WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JACK VINEY

Featured Replies

Viney has been assessed as 8th best buy professional analysts.

If u think he is better - that’s a separate argument.

A hard negotiator would make the Suns aware that the MFC won’t be using #3 to recover Viney, if they select him at #2.

The Suns would then know that they would be using their valuable No 2 pick on an 8th ranked player.

The Suns hierarchy later would go ballistic if they find their recruiters have taken an 8th best player at No 2. The net result would be that they pass on the 2nd best ranked player & we probably pick him up. Then the late 2014 threat that Viney goes to the draft after 2 years. The Suns are facing a lose/lose option IF WE HAVE THE FORTITUDE TO PLAY HARD BALL(?).

And if the Suns genuinely believe we won’t activate the F&S rule they CAN NOT SELECT Viney unless they really want him over however is No 2..

Our recruiter/selectors are duty bound to pick the best available player by taking a hard cold approach.

Football is way too serious for heart to rule head on this one. Take the small risk.

Speaking of...

Would any one be unhappy if we got viney at 3?

Whatever the price, we must pay it. We are in the midst of an era whereby players will jump ship. Scully & Goddard have set the scene. How many times did Goddard fist his St.Kilda heart? Players won't tolerate playing for chronic basketcases anymore. Money and success will mean more to most.

Even if Viney is considered a pick 6, the MFC must get him at any cost. Viney is an extremely rare commodity. Hard, tough, no-nonsense and WANTS to play for the MFC. Who has wanted to come here in the past few decades? Don't give me that fringe ageing superannuant we signed a few days ago either.

This club already has the Naitanui egg on its face. It won't double-dip by missing out on a young Lenny Hayes who will lead the red'n'blue.

Large Collectors items to some.

It's funny how many usually talk tough when the heat is on, but then turn to water with gooey sentiment.

The club is right, 'We will choose the best player available with our pick 3.

Only IF MFC think he's number 3 choose him. The Sun's play games and choose Viney to try and get us to bid. Stuff 'em, have him. He's said he'll go, he's a big boy, he'll be fine.

Having said that, I'd love Viney in the 2nd round. Bloody awesome!!

It's Viney at pick 3,DONE!

Only the MFC could [censored] this up.

Cale Morton won the Larke Medal and he's been $hitting himself ever since at AFL level.

We need Viney at ANY cost to show our peaheart mids (bar Jones) what tough contested footy is.

This is a very important point that some naysayers are missing. the rest of the top rounder potentials might look good at the under 18 level kjust like Cale and a few others did but couldnt make the next step. We know Viney CAN make the next step as he scored 29 disposals twice at VFL level.

Neeld said that he thinks the club knows where they rate Viney and all the other clubs do as well - then why the snakes and mirrors? if they stuff this up and it backfires this will be regarded as the worst decision since Norm Smith's sacking or Woewodin's trading LOL

 

get a haircut Biffo!

Watts wrong?

so how did viney go at draft combine he wasnt in the top of any results did he compete surely GC are taking the [censored] saying they will take him

Hey smart guy, how did Whitfield go in the test results ? You know, the stand out pick one. He doesn't feature either.

They're just great footballers, which DC can't measure.

Strong rumours on facebook that gold coast wont elect to bid...

Oh well if facebook says it, that's it then.

We Must get him at pick 26. Anything else would be deemed as failure.

You're one angry dude, BH....similar to that avatar of yours.

bubsy likes it too so gotta be a strong indication Viney not wanted at GC :)

Watts wrong?

nothing at all! everytime I see that photo of yours ....we need Biffo down back to teach Frawley and Garlo how to play tough! And yes...how to do spiral torps

Just intolerant of ignorant comments.

And I don't get better with age.

You'll need those grumpy pants on for a couple of years then.....

Whitfield came off thw flu just before the combine and going in was expected to break records such as the beep test and 3km time trail.

Viney wasn't

Just saying...

lucky Biffo never had to run a time trial or do a beep test.

Lol.... how would taking the hardest guy and best inside mid in the draft, not to mention a great leader, at pick 3 be deemed a failure?

Yes, I saw that, but I was still surprised by his time of 3.15 seconds for the 20 metre sprint.

I like records and this could go 1000 plus posts before Monday.

Strawberry Fields forever.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
