Season is basically done. We are going into the 4 hardest weeks of the season without arguably our best player. Good times.

    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!

    Disagree. Looks like Ollie is trying to help him by pushing him away.

    Well doesn't that [censored] throw spanner through the works.

    Really [censored] off now. I swear our young talent can never take a trick at this club.

    Take a trick... He belted a guy three times... Absolute idiotic action and now with worse consequences. I hope the coaches and senior players give him a spray. What a fIog he is.

    He wasn't injured punching Ebert, you muppet. Was injured in the first qtr.

    Getting suspended was stupid but maybe get all the facts before teeing off

    Arrghhh we have hawthorn, collingwood sydney then the bye then the crows. Christ now we dont have our hard nut midfielder who has been great. Im shattered and we are stuffed. It will fall back on Jones again.

    Showed him getting it looked at straight after the hits.

    I may have put two and two together and got 40, but I'm [censored] at the suspension as it.

    The last player we could afford to lose, sadly. Not only is he our midfield grunt now, but he sets the culture for competitiveness. That and the fact that oppo teams now know how to expose our defensive shambles means it's going to get very very ugly this Saturday, and not much better for the next 4 weeks. All of a sudden getting to last year's seven wins is looking like a good result for the year I reckon.

    Seems a bit strange calling our best player and leader a [censored]. He got rubbed out by a bit of stupidity which doesn't even matter anymore. 

    Geez we are going to struggle without him. He, Gawn, Hogan and Jetta are not replaceable in our team. I'm wishfully hoping VDB is fit enough to take some of his midfield minutes in the next month though.

    Indeed!! now he has popped a knuckle that requires surgery!! 

    Barrassi made Crackers Keenan wear an orange jumper at training and had him running laps in the opposite direction to training drills! when rubbed out in crucial finals game

    I would do exactly that

    Bad timing, Bad Temper, shocking reactions to tagging 

    Hang him out to dry!!

    Needs to wise up quickly , Lest the word will go around stir him up and you WILL get a reaction!!

    3-4 week for a Popped Knuckle 

    FMD

    I reckon Todd would be "Livid"

    Nah mate, I remember it happening.  Viney was already walking off.  It was byplay between two friends.  There was no "helping" about it.

    That's less of a blow that Viney.

     

    He picked a shocking time to break his hand throwing a punch.

    He broke it in the first quarter, he punch Ebert in the 3rd.

  • Quote

    I would bring in VB, Trenners and Ollie just to name a few.

    Doesn't matter. His loss is a disaster for the team at this point with the hard teams salivating at the thought of playing us over the next few weeks.

    Did Viney make Greg Baum cry at some point? He has written another article about him. 

    http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/afl-2016-heads-you-lose-but-jack-viney-gets-off-lightly-20160530-gp7k25.html

    He wrote this article when Viney got off after the Lynch incident last year.

    http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/viney-bump-was-out-of-time-20140509-zr7gd.html

    I think that latest one doesn't really say anything that isn't true. In fact, it's fairly well balanced. Viney should consider himself lucky he only got one week.

    They also said on 7 that Garland may miss 2 or 3 with his cheekbone. 

     

    And of course the MRP had a good look at that too ?

  • Quote

    Baum's version of Viney's altercation with Ebert is the equivalent of a Shaun Tait wide! As soon as Viney turned and pushed out at Ebert, the latter threw an elbow to Viney's chest, Viney's first two slaps were a warning but Ebert showed signs of wanting to go on with it. He was advancing and Viney threw the third, more emphatic blow which finished things.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
