Brayshaw is the more well rounded player/midfielder

Viney is the better fit

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.  

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

Clarrie and Tracc are fixed.

 

 

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. 


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

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.

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.


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.

It's Oliver. Always Oliver. Sorry kids.

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).

Nah, it's more difficult than that.

'Often' would be an understatement...

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

Very much so. 😂

 

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

  • 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.
