The trade Jack Viney thread

I know his contracted but needs to be considered. He adds nothing to us and clubs like Port are crying out for inside mids, we could make out like bandits.

    Viney is a bloody champion. If he could hit a target, he would be an A grader. 

    Viney was one of our best tonight  

    Not why we had a draw!!

    Still amazes me that on DL new threads aren’t vetted. ?‍♀️

    He had 14 contested possessions (31 possessions in total) and 11 tackles. Go back and hide under your rock mate.

    Good but very limited footballer. His foot issues have destroyed his ability to get off the mark quickly. Has poor vision, lacks penetration with his kicking and often kills forward momentum. Worst of all is he throws out the balance in the midfield and pushes better more complimentary players outside the centre square... Harmess and Brayshaw.

    Tick the trade for me

    We just signed him up to 5 years.

    Club wouldn't have the balls to trade him.

    If we win the flag I so hope Viney plays a blinder to shove it up so called supporters. Absolute heart and sole player.

    And this is after a draw. Had we lost, what would it be? Maybe, put out a contract on Viney’s head.

    I'm sending a couple of movers to his joint now to pack his belongings up for Jeelong. They may be a bit late tho, they're coming from interstate.

    Too many here with rose coloured glasses on. He has been a liability the last 4 weeks only plays well now as a tagger. I'm not sure if we should go all the way and trade him, but he's certainly not deserved of his spot at the moment. You just can't carry a player like that who turns the ball over like clock-work.

    Ridiculous thread, in my opinion. Yes, Viney has been a little bit disappointing lately but there were probably more than a dozen players who were worse than him tonight. I don't think that Oliver, Petracca or Brayshaw were any better. It just amazes me how after a disappointing game some people on this forum like to point their fingers at one player as the sole cause of our problems.

    This is probably by far one of the worst posts ever made on this site.

    The bloke's disposal has been lamentable since he's come back.

    However, this can be fixed. When he wants to, while he's not exactly an Isaac Smith or Christian Salem, he is capable.

    Trade talk is just silly, emotional venting.

    Useless when half of them are turn overs. He doesn’t even look where he is kicks it, Would take spargo’s 11 touches any day over Viney’s 32 anyday

    In fairness, it’s just so the reader can understand the sentence. His is very different to he’s

    a missing comma here or there I don’t mind but I draw the line at ‘his’

    anyway. Play on

    He gets very little to no momentum with his kicks. They pretty much always drop short. I'm not sure how fixable his kicking is.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
