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

What % chance you giving that he goes


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. 

Interested by the amount of agreement on this...

Goodwin said we need to be ruthless as a club. Jack Viney running around for someone else. Ruthless indeed.

If so mixed feelings and anywhere but Essendon. 

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.

Eligible or intelligible?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
