A bit stupid by Jack. Got to be bigger than that. Love his passion, but needs to add some smarts, he's going to be targeted every week, has to get used to it. All part of the learning experience. Go Dees. Trengove in.

    Yep, just needs to channel it more effectively. Trengove in could be a good call, could play a similar role.

    Two weeks down to one with an early plea. 

    Dont suppose it'd be worth the challenge.

    Zero grounds for a challenge. Pretty obvious that it's low impact, intentional contact to the head. 

    Only thing you could argue that it wasn't strong enough contact to warrant a report. Individually 1 punch/strike maybe, but 3-4 kind of bring it up to low impact.

    Deemed intentional, low impact so 2 weeks is a bit stiff!

    Probably not worth the challenge...he needs a rest anyway - took a heavy knock a few weeks ago (vs brisbane (?) went off and didn't come back on) and has carried a heavy load so far this year.

    yep agreed. He's not the type to accept he needs time off for  injury I don't thnk , so it may be a blessing in disguise. Gawd help us against the hawks though.

    What a great show of leadership. 

    Pity we cant afford to send him to the vfl after his weeks suspension. 

    Just game himself a bunch of games where he is targeted. 

  • Quote

    Yeah but still a massive loss this weekend especially coming up against the hawks. Dam it. Wonder if other clubs now know how to put him off his game by niggling him and getting his focus off the ball. 

    But people over the weekend kept saying he should get off. 

    But not a great thing for a leader to do especially with the team we are playing this week. Jordan Lewis got cleared for his headbutt by the way. 

    But I think Jack will be disappointed he got sucked in and got a week.

    Give him a week to think about it, every team in the comp knows he has a short fuse and if he doesn't learn to deal with players winding him up he will miss a few weeks to come.

    AFL 2016 Rd 10 - Melbourne v Port Adelaide

     

    Saw this pic on club website of Ollie taunting his off-field best mate.  If I can put words in Jack's mouth he would be saying:  'yep, you'll keep mate!

    What was disappointing for me was the lack of support from his team-mates when he was obviously labouring under a heavy tag.  Jones and/or Vince could've done more in my view, along the same lines that Viney himself has flown the flag for team mates several times this year.  I think Clarrie will be superb in this arena in due course and hopefully Gus.  Doesn't seem to be Tyson's thing, not Vandenberg for that matter.

    One punch:   free kick 

    Two punches:  5,000$ fine 

    Three punches:  Jeez Jack ...I'm gonna have to give you a week!

    Enjoy the rest young fella

    Come back and give it to the Pies.

    Bit of a joke of a suspension.

    How can they be deemed as punches? Ebert ran out of his way to elbow Viney in the back to start it anyway. MRP are fools. What about the 3 facial contacts with Demon players. They were clumsy & all very deliberate. [censored] Port look forward to the return match.

    Saw the Gawn and Garland ones.  Which was the 3rd?

    Suspension irrelevant for Viney ... Can confirm has hand injury, needs surgery, out 3-4 weeks .. @7NewsMelbourne

    It's going to be very interesting to see if anyone is willing to fly the flag in his absence.

    We may very well go 0-4 in our next 4 games. Who in our team is willing to stand up over the next month?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
