Not sure what your're alluding to, but he could not have handled himself any better on the Sunday Footy Show. Well rounded, confident and humble. Stumbles over his words occasionally but who cares? He'll get better at that. He's a very impressive young fella. Exactly the type you'd want representing your club in the public eye.

Let's not forget that Taylor Walker is a captain and thought to be leading the club brilliantly. If he's considered acceptable, I think JV will be just fine.

I agree wholeheartedly P-Man.

A lot is said abut Hogan but Jack Viney is turning into a star before our eyes, hes playing phenomenal footy and opponents are scared any time hes in the vicinity. He can shutdown a superstar and hes also improved his attacking footy the last couple of months. (hes had a shot on goal the last 6 games and 7 of the last 8).

A big chance for the Bluey despite unfortunately missing 6 games!

Vince will win the bluey.

1st Vince

2nd Jones

3rd Viney

4th Hogan

5th McDonald

If I was going to make a call now

Hard to say whether Dunny or Cross will feature in the top 5, Would love to see Viney take it out, think back to his games against Joel Selwood, Gary Ablett and Jack Steven he has had a great season.

You know I looked at this and thought, of all the comics I've read, surely there's one where Batman got some sort of flying power.

I can think of at least two, but they're non-canonical.

Not that canon means much to DC these days.

So.... That Jack Viney. That's some tackler there.

I wonder if Jack Viney can punch through a barrier of reality and retcon our drafting history?

Lamashtu? Where does JV fiddling with our draft history fit?

Obviously Nathan Jones would be the T-5000, the living embodiment of Skynet. His mission is to corrupt the leader of the future Melbourne premiership team, Angus Brayshaw, into a T-3000. He then corrupts an entire team of VFL-spec players into believing they are capable of being AFL-spec and winning more than 4 games in one season. Of course this doesn't factor in the time-travelling subplot where Simon Goodwin returns to 2011 and makes copies of Essendon's drugs program spreadsheets, before Vlad can tip them off.

Tackle of the year, by anyone.

Geez that is a brutal tackle, and I absolutely love it.

I have said a couple of times this year, but Jack's season has been excellent. I love the way he goes about it and I expect him to finish top 3 to 5 in the B&F

I love the look on Weller's face when he looks down at the ground afterwards. Looks like he is thinking to himself "Why the f@#k did I just try to do that?"

Toms had a poor 2nd half of the year but I reckon would've been leading the B&F prior to the pies, I would say 5th would be between himself, Dunn, Cross, and maybe Brayshaw. Would love to see Gawn heading the to pointy end of the B&F but I think his run will have been left too late.

Tackle of the year, by anyone.

If there's been a better tackle ever, I don't remember it.

Dawes against Adelaide last year.

That was excellent, but I still think Viney's was much better.

I love it that he tried the dont argue armstretch!.......Yup, Jack didnt argue!

Does anyone know the format of the B&F count? If points are awarded to every player when they play that will not do Jack any good. If it's top 6 getting votes he could well surprise. He's been outstanding in my view.

No duty of care.

No duty of care.

I know......don't you love it?! :)

He cared. He cared about getting our ball back,.

and about making the bloke in the other colour jumper experience pain. These are Viney's only interests.

 

I know......don't you love it?! :)

Yeah .... I do.

Love to see him get Dustin Martin the same way.

I love Viney, but I'm disappointed Brent Harvey didn't make an appearance in this thread after last week. Please act in the public interest, Jack.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
