Jeepers, imagine if Moonie was Lord Nev, he'd be copping [censored] from the ET's of the world. 

Maybe I am Lord Nev

Mix the red and blue together and you get purple, the same colour as a deelightful fortified beverage.

I agree with you on this. Why has it taken so long to agree with a new contract. I hope that Jack Viney stays with us.

The bleeds red and blue thing is rubbish of anyone. I like to think of myself as an optimist outside of footy, but anyone can be turned.

Have the club decided what a few of us seemed to hint at throughout the year, that we're more efficient without Jack, and therefore haven't offered him a contract?

No way they haven't, but perhaps they've shaved some dollerydoo's off?

Yeah, that's what I meant, I guess. Bit of lowballing, combine that with taking the captaincy off him and yoyoing him in and out of midfield.

I rate Brayshaw higher but at the same time dunno if he'll ever get back to 2018 levels on consistency, even without Jack - worth the risk tho, imo!

Oliver, Petracca, Brayshaw and Harmes is our best midfield IMV.

Yep, with Sparrow developing

Add a skilled outsider and we look much better.

Love Jack, hope he stays, but he's Gawn

Happy for JV to test his free agency. He’s at his peak as a player, he’s not going to get better in his skills and he’ll not be able to sustain the manic nature of his game for too much longer. He is too inconsistent for us, his best this season is great to watch, it doesn’t happen often enough.

He bleeds red and blue, lol. Will he get us to a flag? I’d put the chips on Trac, Oliver and Brayshaw etc over him now.

Well I certainly haven’t given Jacks contract much thought until now, I just assumed it would get done. But when you think about it, it’s unusual for a vice captain who is not over thirty to remain unsigned with only two weeks left of the regular season.

I am so confused with where we are at as a footy club, I have know idea if I want him to stay or go.

Maybe Moonie is that beady eyed John Ralph character or Sam McClure or that midget Stevens fella or maybe or the fireman bloke Cane Kornes...?

Either way, I think Salem and the Crows are a good fit.

I know how you feel. 
 

I produced that equation with a lot of effort 

I expect the same amount of effort in the form of an eligible answer.

Jack due to his courage and family name has had a terrific go with the media. If jack eants to go we need to accept it. I am starting to think young Rivers has shown as much as Jack in his first year and we gotta keep searching for the right mix. Different story if he wants to  stay and accept a modified on ball role.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
