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.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
