Perhaps it should read '1 - Todd Viney's sperm'.

Well he is "fluid" in his motion, and we are talking about a "ball" game.

    Recent history would suggest just being in the vicinity of Jack Viney whilst wearing opposition colours causes serious injury.

    Incorrectly naming him in a match report...

    the consequences are almost unfathomable.

    More interesting than a typo is that one coach thought Howe was BOG and the other thought he was second best. That wasn't reflected in the voting for the Demonland POTY votes.

    If anyone can be bothered, it would be an interesting exercise to compare the coaches votes with the Brownlow votes and the Demonland votes at the end of the year. It would demonstrate the real difference in perspective between the fans, the umpires and the coaches.

    lol Go Todd

    On a related note, the Father - Son rule has to be the best rules in any sport in the world and a massive credit to the AFL for conceiving it

    Its great to have that connection to the team from earlier generations, Todd Viney was a lot of peoples favorite player back in his day and he was a real heart and soul player for us a long time and a great skipper

    and now we have the please of watching his son play for us

    Nice use of the word "conceiving"

    Actually... If what I have read is true Melbourne actually lobbied the then VFL to create the Father/Son rule.

    Carlton were the first to actually benefit from it.

    Later, one Ronald Dale Barrassi Jr was recruited via this rule.

    Anyone able to confirm?

    And the B&F.

    Of course, the different voting systems blur the outcome. Doesn't the MFC B&F give players a mark from the Senior Coach and some or all assistant coaches (or Match Committee?) from 1 to 7 for each game played? So a player who had the worst day imaginable, but was out there, will get votes under that model.

    You have to feel sorry for the other sperm that competed with Jack on the road to their mum's egg. They never had a chance.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
