I'm starting to think Ablett deserves his own separate thread here, just to acknowledge how often Viney beats him up.

Selwood played that up SOOOO much, Jack didnt get anywhere near his head and they got a free for High contact. Amazing follow up with Viney laying the tackle then eventually the Jonesy goal.

Selwood ... and those at The Pu55ycats who have learned from him, are just blatant bloody cheats. ... not that it helped them last night.

The media need to jump all over this one. Didn't touch his head but he flings it around like an Italian soccer player...

afaik no-one has brought up the fact that jack only had 66% game time, obviously managed as we opened up a decent lead

not a bad day's work considering he only played for 2/3 of the game

 

Half the team looked scared of him. It was like the scene in Stand By Me when they were running from the junk yard dog. Only the dog kept catching them.

Thats because they were. 


That's one of the easier ones over and done with, and don't be surprised by a couple of other younger boys becoming interested in pushing a bit of the old art of "martialling" cue Oliver and Petracca......

He was on the bench for around 16mins at the start of the 3rd qtr from memory. They were saying on MMM that he was itching to get back on but because of the lack of goals and where the ball was being played they couldn't get a rotation ....Seems to have worked out OK....

Ablett is now soft as butter. No CPs in the first half. Avoided all contact and sat out the back getting cheap handballs or ran fwd of the ball looking for a chip kick.

The Holy Trinity BS has failed.

To be fair... Geelong didn't label themselves that.

It’s easy to forget how good jacks footwork is. He can get out of some crazy situations sometimes. 

My favourite thing about him is when the opposition has a really good player he seems to want to hurt them. Even if it means giving the odd free kick away 

 Viney was BEST ON GROUND.  His spin and burst to kick to the hotspot was sensational.  

Tackled like he had never been out.  He is still fresh and gives us the September push

And to think there were many, somewhat understandably, who thought hed never play again due to his foot.toe problems.

Straight back in and tearing apart two finals.   He is a SUPERSTAR.

The other side are scared to death of him.  You watch the replay and you will see Hawks players trying to avoid his tackles.  Same with the Cats last week.

He is a hero.   The toughest Demon of all time. (Old timers feel free to correct me).

 

In line with the thread title, Jack Viney made me cry last night. What a bull. My best mate, diehard bluebagger, is now in love with him as well.

 

Our best mid in two finals in a row...

Who thought he was a ‘one trick pony’ again?

Just doing what Jack Viney does.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
