Nah, he walked with Crawford. B)

How else would he get to Melbourne ?

Btw, they are allowed to travel.

.. that's made my day.

I have grave concerns for my own sanity.

It's definitely still there.

I wonder who else is meeting him and in what context. Would be kinda weird if the club said to Ricky, "young man, go stalk Jack Viney, buy him a kids meal at Maccas and bring him to us".

Wrong again-- he was being taken to Hungry Jack's--

Really. B) If we had a emoticon to represent a jocular expression, I would have used it DeezMan.

Is Petterd going over the border to meet him??? Bad feeling that Ricky's going to be traded to Adelaide now...

Yes it was...sorry

Ricky Petterd's tweet: "2 answer few same questions, lunch with young jack viney went well, very informal and just had normal chat! Hopefully he becomes a Dee 1day!"

Gold.

Good piece in the Sun today about Chris Connolly and Jack Viney at the Freo Cats game last week. It said that Chris put the "hard tag" on young Jack all afternoon.

We apparently brought his family over for the game.

It is clear how important we view this boy and there is no doubt we are putting in the big effort to get him.

Given all of the circumstances I feel confident he will become a Demon in a couple of years.

PS. He was also pictured in a red and blue jumper as well.

Nice pic, but I didn't know he was a Hawthorn supporter. Last paragraph:

Viney, who picked up 40 possessions in May as a bottom-age player for North Adelaide's U-18s, is a Hawthorn supporter.

Nice pic, but I didn't know he was a Hawthorn supporter. Last paragraph:

His father was an assistant coach at Hawthorn while he was growing up here hence he followed the Hawks.

Yeah, I knew that. But Jack being a Hawthorn fan kind of complicates all the blarney about Jack getting around in a Demons jumper.

I believe that he's also said that he has had a "soft spot" for Melb and Adelaide. Also, I believe he's been pretty comfortable with the fact that he's been going to become a Demon for some time, hence the readiness to be photgraphed in a Dees guernsey. I see that as quite a positive.

Well, I imagine he supported the hawks in his younger days as much as Scully supported the tigers.

When it comes to playing in the AFL, often these allegiances are discarded, and when there's a realistic chance of being an AFL player, the kids don't allow themselves to get too attached in the first place.

And I also think that would be a fact garnered a long time ago that is still used.

I doubt they asked him about it just recently - his views may have changed on the matter.

Non- factor.

I dont think we have much to worry about.

His dads a legend of the club

He already has mates that play at the club

He's meeting our officals and players

He's allowing pictures of him posing In a Dees jumper

The clubs on the way up on and off the feild..

It's just a matter of time guys.

I said it before and I will say it agian.

No need for concern with JV. According to the Connors camp who he has either signed with or is poised to sign with, he will become a Dee. They have met with him and this is the feedback.
