Which midfield combination do you prefer?

[Orion 332]

It's a tough choice

Simple.

Jack Viney is an excellent midfielder.

Angus Brayshaw is an excellent anything.

[adonski 11,846]

Brayshaw is the more well rounded player/midfielder

Viney is the better fit

[Chook 15,012]

I'll have Petracca Oliver Pickett thanks

That's the most attacking combination. I loved it, because Kozzy can still defend and attack.

But you can only use that combination for short periods because Pickett is needed forward.   I'm talking more about the best midfield combination for the bulk of the game.  

[tiers 2,829]

Oliver, Petracca plus any one of Viney, Brayshaw, Harmes.

Clarrie and Tracc are fixed.

That is all out attack setup not much defensive presence there. 

[Jaded No More 68,867]

Come finals Viney is very important because defensively he’s the best of the lot. And he gives Trac and Clarry a lot of protection to get first use of the ball.

People really underestimate him. 

[Fritta and Turner 4,345]

What I dont want is Ollie and Kozzie sitting on the bench at the bounce

[Gorgoroth 12,924]

Viney plays the defensive cog allowing Trac and Clarrie to hunt the ball knowing if the opposition get it they have to contend with Viney.

This is like asking which one of your kids you love more.

CP

CO

JV.

Does anyone else often recall the first bounce of the 2021 Grand Final? Viney absolutely hammered into Jack McCrae and set a standard for the entire team for the rest of the day. 

Brayshaw is my favourite Dees player, but the mix of Gawn hitting it to a combination of Petracca, Oliver and Viney covers every possibility, and has excellence in every department. 

The fact that we can rotate Brayshaw, Kozzie, Harmes, Sparrow etc... through there as second-tier options is mind blowing.

[dl4e 5,851]

Iput Brayshaw down as he is better at clearing the ball, Also Viney tends to get done for holding the ball more. Having said all this I would take either.

Fully agree- couldn’t say it any better ….but, I would like to see Sparrow get a better go, especially up against lesser teams, needs more action in the guts.( experience).

'Often' would be an understatement...

In other words, Viney does what Libba failed to do.

Very much so. 😂

[Fritta The Hair G.O.A.T. 510]

Trac, Clarry & Viney a.k.a. Bang, Bang & Bang. 

[Ted Lasso 19,332]

Oliver, Petracca and Kozzie will be our starting and best combination by years end. Mr Pickett is ready to absolutely explode as a player
