Viv Michie

Yeah i like the potential of this guy.

 

It you had to choose whether Michie or our other speculative recruit in Riley would go and cement a best 22 spot you'd probably back Michie.

I'd be backing both. They both can find plenty of the ball which is a trait we lack. The best teams have 10 - 12 mids. Some play on the ball, some play half forward, some play half back.

those dinky little kicks coming out of the backline were clever and created play around him, very cotchin-like.now if only he can get it a hell of a lot more.

big pre-season coming up, as we need more midfield depth.

 

Half back was something new from him. And cleaner outside than previously. If we can't get a guy with these talents to be mainly a regular in a building bottom 8 team then we are doing something wrong.

Haven't seen much of him, but by quarter time I think it was clear he could be trusted to find a target coming out of defense. I found it strange that my heart wasn't in my mouth expecting the next kick to be a turnover.

He's in elite company at MFC. 100% certain round 1 2015, fully fit, he starts. And shows plenty from there.


Picked the right option pretty much each time and went in the corridor when it was on.

Viv won't ever be a game-breaker, but he's streets ahead of most of our list in the simple fact that he rarely stuffs it up. He wins his own ball, has good hands and can be trusted to make a decent decision and hit his target over 30-40m.

22 of those and we'd beOK

We found a player here folks

And one with skills and great decision making, thank christ

Just watched the replay, if we can get the ball into Viv's hands more often we'd be a better side. He's got some speed, uses the ball well by foot! Hopefully we can get a full preseason into him!

  • 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.

  • 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.
