    Sounds like Fletcher Roberts will get BOG considering they got the win.

    Thanks for updates all, just a few questions:

    1. Final stats for JV?

    2. Which afl players does he remind you of?

    3. Where would you roughly place him in the draft if we didnt pick him up based on todays performance?

    4. Can someone please describe to me his last fourth quarter?

    Thanks all.

     He had 34 possessions.

    Unbelievable last 10 min from Viney, did everything he could to drag them over the line. As mentioned above he's very much a Sam Mitchell/ Joel Selwood type. For the life of me i cant believe he started in the forward pocket in the last qtr...

    How did Dom Tyson go? He's firming into top 3 calculations come draft time and might replace Wingard as #3 pick. Today's GF would have had a lot of say in if he might go at #3.

    Viney 26 touches, 6 tackles, 5 clearances, 5 inside 50's. Half eat through the 3rd qtr

    Whereabouts did you find game stats?

    I've been unable to find them anywhere.

    SEN gave some updates throughout the game.

    Many thanks for the updates guys. Greatly appreciated, and topped off a great week and a bit for the MFC, after a season that couldn't end quickly enough. Let's hope the rest of the off-season continues in a similar vein.

    I wonder if he can play VFL next year, with that effort I wonder if we could draft him one year early :)

    Kev,

    It's a beautiful day.

    Why not head down to Etihad?

    Alternatively, I believe vision of the game is being screened through the TAC Cup site.

    Roast lunch at Big Reds place with his future parents in law Jack

    Very interesting from a MFC supporter background. We have Jack Viney playing for Oakleigh whilst Sandi's coach was formally listed as A demon..he was a listed player whom didn't get a game.

    Go Jack GO.

    Oakleighs coach Greg Doyle did play for us as well.

    The number of possessions he won is not enough to do his game justice. It's also the way he earned them and his ferocious attack on the football and on his opponent if the player had the football. He wouldn't concede a centimetre, he was so miserly in the way he tackled and harassed throughout the game. I suspect that he might have tired a bit in the game's latter stages. He was rotated off for a while in the third and spent a lot of time in the last quarter deep in the forward line. There was a time in the last quarter just before Sandy started it's final surge to win the game that a teammate chose a difficult snap instead of a pass to Viney which could have sealed the result. Viney looked filthy.

    There were plenty of others on display in what was a terrific match - possibly the best I've seen all season and I'll be doing a report on the game at some stage in the next few days.

    Well said WJ and yes he had every right to be filthy, I would be to If I was 10 meters out standing all by myself. I don't think Its any coincidence that when Jack started deep forward at the start of the last Sandy got on top In the middle.

    Disappointing about the loss but he should hold his head high, he never gives up and wills himself into contest after contest.

    Jack with 34 possessions won the TAC medal for BOG in the under 18's GF. Too bad we have to wait another year for him. He looked ready for the AFL.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
