Special mention to Jack Viney in the GF.  Big 2nd half. He was huge in the centre square and started most of those clearances that led to the quick goals at the end of the 3rd with either first touches or just bulldozing to make space. Key part of the turnaround.

 

12 clearances. 

I don’t want to pick on certain people that doubted this bloke but you don’t know footy.

If you doubt this bloke - you don’t know footy.

He is one of immense character and fight.

Jack Viney makes me cry…

 

Viney will improve as well. Now the pressure is off he is one we have that could be more settled now. Did a lot of 1% plays tonight. Be hard to find more sacrificial players than Viney and Brayshaw.

Look at the Brisbane player in the background - pleading with the umpire to show some mercy and stop the game before someone dies.

That play though.

Viney’s bulldozer tackle, where he stays upright and impacts the immediate next contest. The small forwards all looking for each other in traffic, the vision and skill of Bedford to get it to the only person inside 50 in some space in Spargo, who has time, and nails it. Pure.

That was surreal. 

Viney flattened him, didn't break stride; just kept running.  Literally ran through him as if he wasn't there. 

 

That was one of the really great performances by an individual last night.  Right up there with Gawn's game against the Swans, some of Oliver's and Petracca's dominant performances.  It was everything that you'd expect from a club leader and more, and a reminder, if we needed it, as to why this guy is so important if we are to go back to back.

Totally agree with this - set the standard for others to follow and didn’t let up for one moment - incredible and inspiring 


Not gonna say this was the best game I've seen Viney play. That's dumb. However it was probably the best 'in and under' game I've seen him play. He bounced around like a pinball and he would dive for the ball in a contest he'd be back up with it in no time. Tackled hard and got stuck in immediately when Bedford got taken out. A true skipper's game, looking forward to him leading team out over the next month.

What really impressed about Viney's game was not only were his tackles brutal, he kept his feet and found space after a contested possession enabling him to compose and find a target.  His disposal was excellent.

yeah, nah... that was the best game I have seen Viney play!

That's it Luci, I can't quite describe it but it felt like he was playing in a jumping castle and was able to bounce back up to his feet no matter how hard he fought for the ball. He would get that yard of space and deliver, he could literally do no wrong in that area!

Remember when people always said Viney was like a Rugby player who always tried to drive through tackles with the footy? Tell you what they had a tough time even laying a glove on him last night!

Kiddy Coleman will remember that for a bit.


Career best form since the Eagles game. By the numbers he has been a top 5 midfielder since then, but there has also been a quality to those numbers. Getting a few quick evasive steps in, keeping his feet in tackles that take the opponent off their feet, and a mental state of continuous hunting. 

Looks like poor Clayton has yet another team mate who will be 'stealing' Brownlow votes off him.

 

I got quite worried when he grabbed the top of his hamstring.  Very relieved it was a corky.

He was superb though for all the reasons mentioned above.  I loved his couple of fend offs also 💪 🤛.  

That was an most inspirational captains game rivaling Max’s 2021 PF v Cats.

Made me cry tears of joy.  🤣😂

It was very unique to other games he's played that's for sure! 

He said in an interview recently , that we haven’t seen the best of him yet.

Looks like it has arrived.

  • 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.

    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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
