While we are on Jack Viney in Olivers thread,

I remember reading once that Jack and his brother are both black belts in karate.

Can anyone verify this? 

If he is,no wonder he tackles and brings players to ground the way he can.

Loved that Rance takedown and the one after the don't argue was tried on him last year.

I thought, Max, his younger brother is into expressive dance or ballet or whatever you call it.

Seriously.

Good call. Remember there being footage of a school performance or something last year, or pre-season.

Why was Peter Wright not done for his late hit on Jetta?  The footage is damning, he's clearly given up on contesting the mark and just turns the shoulder and rams into Jetta's back after he's taken the mark.  It should have been 50m on the day and a report.  Not only did the umpire not pay it at the time,but I haven't seen anything in the media about it.

Come on, it was late but it wasn't charging. It wasn't high. It got a 50 and that's what it deserved.

Commentary during the last game....Oliver ...' is like Michael Voss' ........he is a bulldozer!

Doesn't have to be high to be reported.  As I said, he gave up on contesting the mark, turned the shoulder and ran through a player from behind.  That's a hell of a lot more likely to cause injury than a sling tackle.  It should have been a rough conduct report at the very least.

Agreed. Could easily be classed as low impact, intentional to the body.

Something like that is much more likely to do damage than the cheeky little stomach punches the ping players for these days.

Agreed, especially since Jetta was injured by it.

You're right, it could be considered rough conduct. 

I don't think he meant any particular malice by it, I was satisfied with just the 50 and glad Nev came back on (and played a blinder).

 

 

Back to Oliver, I chuckled after the Prestia hit the umpire says "are you ok, Dion?"

Even funnier if Dion replied "Lucky I'll be playing with him next year".

Yep, should've been a fine IMO, or at least noted by the MRP. Pretty nasty cheap shot given he hit him right down the middle. Good to see Garland give it to the big lug.

I thought about it at the time, but decided Garland caused the impact just as much as 2MP with his slight bump

He also rag-dolled Lynch to the ground on Saturday night too.

Might be hypocritical when back to the OP I've decided Oliver was pushed in to contact but looked to me like Garland got him off balance but Wright had time to pull up and thought better of it. 

Not worth a week though so no real issue.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
