Gawn thanks list chiefs for giving Mark Jamar the flick "so they finally give me a go". Says he's now "palming it down their throats".

...and Max the joker

3 people on DLand picked NJones to win. If he wins it will be an incredible achievement. Particularly after his injury plagued season last year.

And many on this site still harp on about his disposal and his ability to perform week in week out. It's quite pathetic the level of disdain that is levelled at this bloke.

Whether he wins or not tonight he is a super reliable champion.

Out of interest, who does the votes each week?

[Whispering_Jack 30,198]

You don't have to be a genius to work out that the Bluey goes to Jack Viney.

Just because we needed another reason to love Maxy

And the three people that voted for him all voted within an hour of the count, and one of those after the round 19 scores.  Nobody backed him, really.

I disagree wholly with your second paragraph though.  You need to take the angry goggles off.  The odd tool might pan him, but Demonlanders love Jones.  The overwhelming vibe is positive.

Back in agreement again with paragraph number 3.

Good night all.

Where did Bernie finish? I thought his first half of the year was extremely good.

[sydneydee 687]

Awesome result for Viney! 

The scary thing is that he will be better next year. Very happy for the kid

[Demon Jack 6,911]

Viney wins his first Bluey!

Congratulations, Jack. Well deserved.

Thats huge considering he missed a game and played with a broken finger for few more games.

Great night for the little champ!

Brilliant well done Viney, well deserved. 

And just how good is Jones, 1st three years in a row, now 2nd. 

[Wilson7 2,670]

First son of a past player to win a MFC B&F, congrats Jack

[jnrmac 20,097]

No Dawes, Brayshaw, Oliver, Frost or Ben Ken in that lot.....

[Bang Bang Bang 5,826]

Great effort by Hunt to nearly crack the top 10 in his first season.

I'm not surprised Viney won. He'd be a coaches' dream. Will win 4-5 by the end of his career at this rate.

Well done, Jack! This is not quite right though -- Ron Barassi (junior) won a Bluey, and he was the original father-son selection ...
