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.

Thought id state the obviouse but jack watts is as soft as butter as they come.

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.

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

Slight rearrangement:

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
