The club should ask for their money back. The supplements(snake oil) don’t work.

A few generally means more than 2 and 5 or less. Like a handful. Consistent with with what SFebes said. Jones sounds as deluded as some on here if he is serious about either statement.

These are the kind of apologist compassions I hate and are plain wrong. Viney is now in his 7th season and still hacks the ball by boot. Can’t kick for goal and is a momentum killer at clearances. Barassi already had 4 premierships at the end of his 7th season. Bravery does equate to competence and leadership.

“Physically, I feel as good as I’ve ever felt. I’m contributing as much as I have to the team, albeit in some different roles,” Jones told Footy Classified. “I’m still captain of the footy club, along with Jack and I’m really confident with where my body and head is at right now. I’m committed and more driven than ever to see us succeed”

You forgot the maggots.

Which Viney? I imagine senior won’t allow it without a fight.

For various reasons Mr Bennell is long shot to get on the park consistently next season. Pass.

If the two captains don’t get on then remove both. If the so called camps take sides then this is a sign of disunity infecting the players because of this. The whole concept of two captains is that both work together in harmony and unity. Both are useless captain material away. It will be a relief when both are demoted.

Many regard him as some sort of scared cow or talisman. Some strange spiritual hold. Heart and soul of the club they say. Deflects from our perpetual mediocrity.

There was an article in The Age about 5 years ago. I can’t remember who wrote but said Jones and Ablett were the best two captains in the league. We know what Ablett’s captaincy was like at GC. Jones was different and hasn’t behaved like a prize [censored] but it appears the writer was taking the pizz.

I’m sure he’s done extremely well from MFC. Far more than he would have earned at a “successful” club by being just a good ordinary player. He’s not going to get any better next year. No point throwing scarce dollars his way to fund his superannuation. Pay him his current worth or take the Ox’s advice.

Last round he started the game by burning off teammates then kicking the ball into an opponent and turnover resulted in Saints first goal. He disappeared in the last quarter as in the past three games. Another season at 260K with no game time guarantees is more than genourous.

Turd polishers never get past denial here.

A good addition for the club. They should have this. Should be left as is. Restoration ruins it.

I have the feeling we are never going to take the next step with those two as leaders. The disconnect, inconsistency and confusion on the ground is obvious. Two lesser half captains do not equal one effective captain. We have players like May, Lever, Lewis and Melksham appearing to doing all the talking and pointing on the ground. These two seem to be playing their own game. Viney tries hard but lacks too many prerequisites to be elite and the basic smarts. Jones appears to play a selfish game as another poster said earlier. Always burning teammates and rarely lifts when things get tough. Unsighted for the past three last quarters. Viney stifles midfield momentum with his inability to get the ball out to advantage. Jones is currently just plugging holes that any Wagner, Lockhart, Stretch etc, can fill just as good or better if they had consistent game time. Jones retirement cannot come soon enough. If for sentimental reasons we keep playing him till he reaches 300 games then our next season and perhaps the following season are stuffed and forget about any premiership window staying open.

We know Viney was missing injured in the last quarter against WC but I have noticed him and Jones have been pathetic in the last quarters of the past 3 games. When we need leaders to stand up they are the first MIA.

Free to St Kilda for high tackle by Petracca and goal.

Membery loves playing against us. He has kicked 26 goals against us. His next favourite beetch club is Carlton with 16. Bruce does well too. We are third on his beetch list behind North and Essendon.

Are you suggesting the grand final sprint?

If there is too much heat that he can’t pick up the ball then try to tap it out to advantage. No he has to eat like Jones’s used to when playing inside.

We are faarked just like the Melbourne building and recycling industry.

And so is the midfield.

Tigers have weakest percentage of the top 5 teams. It will be a massacre.

Omac is well qualified to wear a Melbourne jumper.

Even the turd polishers have now gone missing.
