Let me first say I don't want him to leave but where is the proof he has signed?

If he had re signed surely the club would be crowing about it.

No proof, OD, just reading the tea leaves.

Sorry binman, I don't remember the specific post.  If you could quote it I'd be happy to respond.

Wasn't having a shot or anything. Apologies if it came across a bit combative.

On the back of what i thought was a number of strange selections (not dropping melk being one) wondering by goody I was wondering if his focus on relationships clouded his judgement sometimes. And iirc you said that was unlikely

    I must have been off with the fairies!  I do think his relationships can cloud his judgement.  Some selection decisions are otherwise inexplicable.

    I wonder hiw he will go balancing being  ruthless and building relationships?

    A difficult trip that few have mastered binman.

    His display picture is him in a Melbourne jumper and his most recent photo is him and Petracca.

    So, no.

    If he is off it will make one the awards he won tonight look rather silly.

    Ruthless with those he doesn't value, perhaps...

    @dazzledavey36 mentioned earlier that he removed references at the start of the year.

    Picture 4 of 16 in the 'gallery pics' from the Blue.  The old adage:  "if looks could kill..." comes to mind.

    I can't seem to reproduce that one pic but Jack looks very desolate.

    I hope he gets bloody ruthless with melksham. Played every game of the season. Probably in our top 5 paid players. Or close. A senior player. And comes 13th in the bluey.

    Without wanting to diminish his cooments, I wonder if the shout out by viney to the players who were on the fringe were influenced at all by Ayers not deserving if a spot being selected?

    I know in that photo he stands out whilst everyone else is smiling, but I think it's very dangerous to read into photos like that. Who knows what was going through his mind or of the context.

    No smiling issues in his photo with his trophy or with the top 5.

    Body language of Viney from the B&F suggests to me that his heart’s not with the club.

    Agreed!  13th.  He should be embarrassed. 

    A better season from him may have got us well into the finals.

    It was left to Sam and a few small fwds to carry the fwd line for the season.

    It wasn't the lack of a smile the 'adage' was referring to...

    In fairness they all looked that way. 

    I would say they are exhausted and probably had a couple of days on the turps

    I will be [censored] gutted if Viney leaves. How do we turn away people who bleed red and blue?

    Viney wasn't a problem in our final series 2 years ago, but now he is a problem because Goodwin is playing Brayshaw on a wing. 

    It's all Jacks fault to this mob in here.

    We should never be in the business of trading our best players.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
