    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 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.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
