AFLCA votes, round four: Perfect 10 sees young Demon move up to fourth

Any chance that Viney could be a smokey for the Brownlow?

Paying $67 on Sportsbet. 

You beat me to the punch.  Been thinking about this very thing all day.  My father always told me to never bet on anything that can talk.  But I reckon I might put a few shekels on at those odds.  If he can stay fit and we keep on our current trajectory of improvement, I reckon JV can be a real chance.

Of course he's a chance! imo he's got a minimum of 6 votes already. 

$67 is great odds. 

 

He keeps this form up, he'll be considered a whole lot more than a 'smokey' for the Brownlow 

He was actually paying $12 to lead Melbourne's votes only 2 weeks ago.

 

That was the bet of the year for mine, unless of course he finds a brick wall that puts him on an injury list.


If Parker and Mitchell keep up their current form, they'll be streets ahead by the end of the year. Dangerfield needs to be a bit more consistent if he's going to challenge those two, but it's early days. 

I'd be stoked if Viney finished in the top 10.

the only problem with this is he'll probably unintentionally rip a guys head off and get suspended for a couple

 

No chance, the coaches may notice him but the Brownlow comes down to who the umpires notice and I'm afraid Jack just wont be noticed.

If anything, he'll have a ripper year, will poll well with the coaches and then the umpires will be like ohh yeah I guess he was OK and then next year he'll get votes in games that he shouldn't.

Agreed, he nearly won the B&F last year from 16 games but only polled 3 Brownlow votes.

The coaches love him and rightly so. He'll win the B&F in a canter at this rate.


He's gonna be our Lenny Hayes/Sam Mitchell... people will say he won't get noticed when somehow he'll bob up and get votes a lot. Only thing really hurting him is the fact that Gawn will steal them.

In coaches votes for the weekend, he got the 5 from both, and is now in 4th spot with Jack Ziebell. Says a lot.

One thing he's got going for him this year is he's running with the ball a lot more; the flashier sort of things that get noticed by the umps.

He'll poll well, not sure he's quite ready to win just yet...

I reckon he might have 7 to this point.

Wait till he no longer flies under the radar with those that matter; the coaches. I would say that this will be coming soon and if he can stand up under the pressure of being the hunted then load up.

Methinks it is more like a brick wall, a couple of tanks and a mobile missile launcher ... :lol::)

Oh don't start!! The last thing we need is for a ginormous Mozz to be placed atop lofty brow!!

I'd love to see the odds on Neville Jetta making the AA team. Rubish award but would take him at odds.


got on him at $80 last night on sportsbet. worth throwing a tenner at.

as mentioned above, biggest risk is him hurting someone and getting suspended

  • 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?
