Fair point considering Lever, Baker and Maynard were there.

He’s non weight bearing for another 8 weeks or so according to the club. Hard to train when you can’t walk.

Jack Viney leads the league in centre clearance average (yes he’s missed most the season and I’m cherry picking). You don’t leave number 2 (dusty) 3 (Cripps) 4 (Mitchell) or 5 (Fyfe) out of the centre square - Viney won’t be left out either. 

You make a good point. That said i'd prefer he play the defensive winger role than Tyson. Maybe brayshaw could play that role and Viney in the guts  - or the two alternate.

But as noted Gawny, Brayshaw, Oliver and Tyson have developed strong connection and i worry Viney may not immediately pick up where he left of in terms of connection and synergy with Max and the other mids.

All that said not a bad problem to have.

Yikes! Thought he might have been at walking level by now.

Let me put it this way Viney like Jones is a one trick pony yes he hard at it but lacks football awareness no opposite side of the body yes I am not a fan and I hope he plays well but being out of the game for two months is different to training has been proven in the past.

As I said If he plays well I will be the first to say so but I would have taken Wines before him.

The post you quoted is the first one I’ve ever seen that confuses Jack Viney with Jimmy Toumpas.

It is a very confused post. Memory has a way of changing over time and morph into the story we want to tell ourselves...

Much as I love Viney who's a contested brute am I the only one worried that he could upset the balance of our midfield which has looked absolutely spectacular the last 2 weeks? 

Don’t worry anymore.

Very happy for those fears to be misguided!

Not to labour the point here but, honestly, how about now?

He has been our best midfielder, arguably our best player, in the finals. This is the real Jack Viney.

He wins you finals. He wins the ball. 

If win a granny in the next few years, who do you think will win the Norm Smith?
