Viney has surgery

Featured Replies

 

Viney did not require anesthetic but they had to call for a chainsaw to perform the operation. The surgeon is recovering in Epworth and is expected to make a full recovery. The chainsaw did not survive.

 

Viney was clearly carrying an injury from the Port game onwards. I'm not saying it in hindsight i have said it in other threads previously.

Given he has played with a broken leg and severely broken hand previously i am guessing this injury was decent given the effect on his output.

Any indication he's shown up at the Club yet?  There's media coverage re the bods at Essendon, St Kilda & Port, but nothing about our boy.  Would have hoped he was keen to put in an appearance and hit the ground running.  Anyone heard anything?

Wrong thread Vagg but anyway Goodwin said today in his press conference he expects Melksham to be back at the club within the next few days.

LOL.  Oops!  Wondered why it didn't show up in the milkshake thread!  Don't mind me!  Thanks for setting me straight, Ethan!

Noticed that he also came in 5th in MVP Most Courageous Players as well - Well done Jack and a speedy recovery. Didn't he say in his acceptance speech that he was heading to Bali the day after the "Bluey Award"?? - Go Jack!!

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
