So we have now secured the services of Jack Viney who looks like he will slot into the starting side next year. He may take a year or two to become a real gun but I think we all know that its inevitable based on his talent.

We also have another star in the making in Jack Watts. He has taken sometime to blossom but again it looks inevitable that he will become a star for the demons. My reason for this post is to suggest a name that will stick for our star duo over the next decade, Ive come up with "The Jack Attack" thoughts?!

    Call me pessimistic, but I am no longer convinced Jack Watts will be any more than a decent league footballer. And I will wait and see with Viney. Very happy to have selected him, especially in the second round, but there is a long way to go from being a good young footballer to a star. Let's just let him develop and not put too much pressure on him.

    What about Grimes, Trengove, and Fitzy? We have 5 Jacks now!

    How about this for a play: "Jack out of the box, Jack's a ripper, looks ahead but he's got Jack, Jack's it up in the air, oh no he looks spent he's cactus Jack, looks for a Jack attack but Jack and Jill are up the hill so he Jacks it towards goal while ignoring Jack, Johnson, and heeeeeee misses.... Oh dear, that was hungry Jack..."

    To save the trouble of needing to remember players' names, I've been calling them all Jack for two seasons.

    That will now continue on, hopefully, for the next decade.

    I did like whoever came up with the suggestions of "Grapes" if we get Viney and Wines.

    Yep, and if we get the likes of Dawes, Hogan and Pederson, i'd be more than willing to trade him for the right price (top 10-12 pick).

    I like the fact that the addition of Jack and Jesse will mean a list comprising of Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jake, Jamie, James, James, James, Jared, Jeremy, Jesse, Joel, Jordan, Jordie, Josh, Jamar, Jetta, and Jonesy....give or take a couple.

    I guess we had to have one, even on this joyous day!

    I think some here would whinge after a GF win because someone, inevitably to be referred to as a spud or a dud, made a turnover or missed a shot at goal, rather than celebrate it all.

    Surely it's inevitable they'll do an ad for Hungry Jacks at some stage?

    The Eagles wouldn't like that.

    HOW DARE ANY OF YOU DIS JACK WATTS ON THIS THREAD..

    Jack Watts was probably our best player in the middle of the year and basically won te game for us against Essendon, by being in the right place at the right time.

    Watts not only has a pristine kick, also makes near perfect decisions.

    He may have a little to go in the courage.. but hell get there, with some confidence..

    Jack is a brendon goddard in the making and yes it took Goddard time.

    So why dont all of you lay the hell off and watch him dominate 2013

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
