Todd Viney has been appointed to the position of Football Manager at North Melbourne Football Club.

I presume this is very much at Clarkson's behest.

    Clarko gets his man. Boy the Roos are going to be set off field in the coaching department.

    He replaced Daniel McPherson who they poached from us less than a year ago…

    I hope Todd knows this is a 5+ year job he has signed himself up for.

    I'd say he needed some convincing. Highly doubtful he'd give up the farm life for anything other than Clarko and a decent offer. All the best to them. Massive job ahead.

    Was a great pick up by us to poach him from them! All the best Todd!

    It won’t be easy

    He'll be right.

    He's done it all before with a team that was in similar position to a recent premiership team.

    They played two seasons together with us including the 1997 wooden spoon season and 1996. We were quite ordinary then. They go back a long way including some rough times before success.

    I'd rather see him at nth than Essendon.

    Clarkson obviously views Viney very highly but I wonder how he'll go doing an office job & being away from the farm.

    T Viney. Probably an underrated part of our success. Good on him. No greater compliment than Clarko going hard to get you. 

    thanks for everything Todd. Babysitting half the squad over the journey

    Didn’t he lure Bernie Vince to us? Which kick started the whole thing?

    Have a soft spot for Bernie Vince. Our first proper trade in yonks and won a B&F.

    look QBD - as you know, Murdoch has sacked all the sub-editor so as he can record another billion-dollar profit.

    so I missed a letter in "they"!

    you give me goals off the boat (get it - I know it's meant to be boot) of Max and I will shut up!

    I loved Brasso so much. Set us up for a tilt in 1987/88. Loved Swooper as well.

    well QBD buy a copy of Ian Munro's MFC book: and send Swooper a copy - Swoop runs a pub down Geelong way?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
