I rate mcrae as the best of the three but all three look future stars to me

Agree totally at this stage but all 3 are very good footballers

If I didn't barrack for MFC I would put Viney behind McRae, Wines, Libba and Bontempelli. Bye the bye Libba senior was in Seminyak this week. Stayed at the Breezes Hotel/Resort.. The weather was fantastic.

Bontempelli has had a few good games, but it's unfair to say that he's proven more than Viney.

Libba is definitely ahead of Viney.

Having said that I think Tyson at his best is as good as any of them, but he is a little bit hot and cold, Wines and Mcrae are playing like 150 gamers consistently, I know it's a topic to avoid on here, I have faith in Jimmy but wow would Wines be handy in our side

Did you go out with him and get a display of his white line fever. Or has he cleaned up his act for good

Viney can burst out of packs with regularity, i havent seen Wines or Macrae do that. Macrae has received alot of flack for possession use.

Viney can run into two players and keep gonig.

He is a rare breed in inside ball

Wines can run into 4 players and keep going.

Viney needs alot of work on his disposal efficiency.

Sorry but your wrong on this one.

We are stil a big chance to finish bottom in my opinion Only issue is we would have to be careful about beating Brisbane

I'm still concerned when ever we play at etihard. still much prefer to enjoy wins @ the 'G'.

Tyson has had a pretty hard tag most weeks too

Wines ahead of Viney by quite a margin.

That isn't a slight on Viney, he was injured much of last year.

I think Jack Viney needs to work on slowing his game down at times.

McRae finds a lot of space, because he isn't rushed, same as Bontempelli.

After hawks v swans block buster... any players from these lists would be welcome.

Gary Rohan impressed me and if available, would be handy!!!

Rohan showed a lot tonight and there is more to him than pace, certainly worth keeping an eye

I've always said Roos & Stone will know his worth probably better than anyone. May have a lot of upside.

Armitage from Saints anyone? Brisbane tried to get him last year, could fit in well for us. With me not being a fan of the Saints personally, I love the bloke. Favourite Saints player alongside Stevens. They'd be hesitant to let him go you'd imagine.

Seems much better suited down back. Plays like Blease when forward. All pace, no idea. But down back he has height and strength so can be a really good two way player.

Is Shuey injured? Haven't seen or heard of him for a while... Clearly when he plays well, the Eagles look great... He's a rock solid player and i definitely target him in a trade, if he could come back 100%... Same with Richard Douglas...

I saw a bit of him tonight in snippets & IMO looks ready to show up. getting reg games now, so may be hard to convince to move?

Some interesting reading on GWS' border protection worries:

http://boundforglorynews.com/the-empire-is-beginning-to-strike-back/

Interesting article! It would be great if Roos was able to secure Cameron and/or Shiel come year's end!

Dayne Beams Is OOC next season and a free agent,

would be interested to see if some big dollars could get his interest, Collingwood might feel pick 3 or 4 is far better than the compo they would get next year if any.

Is he a FA though? I thought it's a min 8 yrs service for FA eligibility? Bumper crop next year either way. Dangerfield the big name, but Scott Selwood would be a terrific addition to our midfield. Not flashy, but can get the ball and is a tackling machine. We enquired about him when we floated pick 2 last year, I wonder if we've kept tabs on him?

His free agency status is currently up in the air, but i'd say there is a very strong chance next years crop the minimum is 6 years because of the huge push for that, which brings Beams right into the mix

I don't think there is a very strong chance at all, even the AFL can't change the rules regarding FA in the year they will implement it. They gave the initial FA a three year heads up.

Okay, fair enough

either way it leaves Beams OOC and as far as I am concerned fair game

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
