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

    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"

    Its still better then years gone by with the bruise free footy tag!.  The punches were silly, who hasn't done something without thinking at 20-21.

    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.

    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: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
