Just for the record guys & girls: -

Emma Quayle ‏@emmasq Melbourne fans I believe your wildest dreams are about to come true. Gold Coast won't bid No. 2 for Viney

I know you accidentally posted this twice H_T.... but if true, I have no problems with you posting it again! :D

 

Ohh shhiiiiit get the tissues

 

Hutchy saying Melbourne have done a deal to get Viney at 26

Any details of the the deal may be or is he just talking out of his a$$

Big allegation to make - draft tampering...

Pick 26 robbieF

The words epic win have never been more appropriate.

And I take back my hatred for GC. Carry on.

Welcome Jack! In the words of one infamous poster, we have been KOTD!


Thank God

Now the kid will never have to wear

" he has never lived up to a no.3 pick, look who we could have got with 3"

I thought the club handled this impeccably from start to finish. Plenty of posters around here should apologise for the nonsense they've flung at the club during this entire saga. Claims that the club have been incompetent have been rife in this thread and only served to prove the ignorance of the fools that posted them.

Excellent result. Well played MFC. Now we can resume wringing our hand in desperation over the Dawes Wellingham "NOT SO SUPER TRADE".


It seems to me that MFC deliberately left out the pick they used for Viney in their press release because they were going to take him pick 3 if they had to.

Fair play. Will be interesting to see if anything happens via trades with GC over the next couple of weeks. If it was simply a case of doubt cast over whether we would take him or not, then you have to take your hats off to the club for handling it so well. Wasn't 100% sure where those comments by Jack a couple of days back fitted in with the plan, but hey, who gives a [censored] now. A huge win, unless there is some sort of ridiculous trade to GC in the next 2 weeks.

Can you copy and paste the actual article for the people who don't have an account?

Copy and past e the header into google. You can usually get the article for free there..

Just remember: he's not the messiah.

But I won't mind if he does a very good impersonation.


Agree with you. Let him make his own mark.

Welcome Jack and well done MFC! Best news in a very dismal year, and hopefully signifies the start of a long term change of luck for the Dees.

It seems to me that MFC deliberately left out the pick they used for Viney in their press release because they were going to take him pick 3 if they had to.

That right, but wouldn't it have been easier just to write two versions each with the different pick we got him for :)

The club said in one of the articles after the picks that they would have taken Viney at 3 if required. Great to have him at the club and he'll become part of the heart of the club in the near future if all the reports are true. PLus he'll be first picked in my dreamteam for 2013...

Yeah, Harrington did confirm this afterwards. Should have just waited for that article! Good to know though

Great outcome Dees.

Firmly believed all along that GCS wouldn't take him at pick 2.

There are others there that appeal better pick 2 to 7

Just think of Toumpas, Grundy, O'Rourke, Wines

I'm salivating already.

I'll have to log off and take a nice nap.

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
