Deep Dive for Viney


DEE fence

Recommended Posts

 

So Webber et.al.(the medical folk)...

I am freaking out about the foot injury, shades of Trengove etc.

Would there be any value in oxygen therapy for this injury. We need him in finals, as i'm sure everyone agrees.

At the moment he is looking 4 to 6 and it is a huge disaster. Please tell me he will be up for the elimination final?

I am sure it is worth the cash.

We haven't been told just what injury he has (and I don't mind that by the way) 

If it is bony my understanding is that hyperbaric O2 wouldn't help much but it could were it soft tissue such as scar tissue.

Happy to be corrected though by anyone with greater knowledge

I suspected from when he first went out with an unrelated foot injury it was in all likelihood a stress reaction or stress fracture 

stress reaction is lower down the scale but still requires rest and non weight bearing 

I hope first final is possible at it will be four weeks but that is probably possible not likely 

hyperbaric is more for wounds leg ulcers where the evidence is of benefit 

any process requiring healing theoretically may benefit but I don't believe there is any evidence to support it

Certainly mixed reports on the benefit - the initial sites I read seemed more positive but I trust the mayo clinic

Why do I get the feeling this injury is very bad and the club is covering it up. Let's hope it's not a Clark/Trengove type

oh FFS sake....chill out...MFCSS at its finest. He has been upfront about it from the get go...he was weight bearing on a different part of his foot to compensate for his previous foot injury and has stress issues. its not navicular...chill

Whether a long term or short term injury, it's important he's not rushed back.

You could see he had lost power which meant he struggled to stick a tackle, couldn't break from the contest & was a liability.

Jack wants to play which is admirable but....

Hence it is utter bulltish for the club to say that it is unrelated to the original foot injury. I know we desperately needed to beat Port Adelaide, but it was inevitable that there would be this sort of consequence from rushing Viney back too early. Now we've most likely lost him for the season. Just plain dumb from all concerned.

I hope not obviously but have the same concerns.

Explains his low possession /tackling (for him ) last few games. ( he did not get a kick last week )

Could we trade him for Seb Ross until the end of September. Then he could come back and if Seb liked us , he could stay. (Would take some negotiation)

The bye week before the finals is a god send. It'll hopefully give Viney enough time to get fit enough to play finals. We need his intensity and ball winning ability out there. It'll also give others a chance to get over any niggles.

Hope he is right for finals!

A few things in life are inevitable, but this isn't one.

If he was done for the season, I'd trust the club to tell us that was the case. I believe he's got the classic 426 and the club are massaging this message taking account for the bye.

because nobody trusts Misso when he says 426 anymore.

Jack Viney would play on one leg if it meant playing finals.

Pound for pound there isn't a tougher player in the comp.

He will be back this season.

You don't think that's an issue?
I would rather not risk [censored] up his foot when he still has many seasons with the MFC

As tough as Jack is I dont want hime playing if there is any chance of a longer term injury ne: Trenners. Naturally and the medicos will make the right call when that time comes. Just want to win today first!

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
