Dom Tyson a decent chance here?

 

After round 19: Jones & Viney tied, followed by Tyson, Gawn and Watts.

 

How big is the gap between them?

1. Jones - 340

2. Viney - 340

3. Tyson - 300

4. Gawn - 278

5. Watts - 276


Jones with 30, 29, 29 and 25 possessions over the last four games. Will take home Bluey number four.

C'mon, us boring people in Perf want to get to bed by 8pm.!

Wow, thought Maxy had it locked after the win against Port. Netherless, go Jonesy!

I thought Tyson played better over the last 4 weeks. I'll back him

Agreed, but I think the gap is too big to for him to make up.

I can't believe I had the impression that Jones had an average year.

Averaged 28 touches, 5.5 tackles per game. 

19th in the AFL for I50s, 11th for total disposals.

I reckon Viney has earnt the gong after missing out by a single vote last year (and missing 6 games).

it's just that other plays finally did something too. He wasn't the only one for a change.

Yep, two horse race from here I reckon.  Dom needs an average of 10 points more than Jones/Viney in the last 4 rounds, currently he has averaged 2 points less each round.  I can't see a 12 point turnaround when the average score of the leaders has been about 15 - he'll close the gap as he finished the year strongly, but not by much.

Viney or Jones it is.

i wish this was televised. In any case what a great night it sounds like. 1200 attendees, a close vote and Jack Watts in the top 5. Who would have guessed such a night.

Too suspenseful...any chance of progress scores after each round, please?

I think that was it. I've been too excited by all of our up and coming players this year, and failed to notice how consistent our skipper has been. 


Dom Tyson will storm home and either win it or come 2nd.

Gee I thought Gawn would bolt in, he carried us all year.

Yep, and people on here were calling for his head saying he should be stripped of his captaincy and dropped to the VFL! Just the sort of culture we want to be known for...

 

Well done Jonesy!!

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
