The Jack Viney Made Me Cry Thread

Not sure what your're alluding to, but he could not have handled himself any better on the Sunday Footy Show. Well rounded, confident and humble. Stumbles over his words occasionally but who cares? He'll get better at that. He's a very impressive young fella. Exactly the type you'd want representing your club in the public eye.

Let's not forget that Taylor Walker is a captain and thought to be leading the club brilliantly. If he's considered acceptable, I think JV will be just fine.

I agree wholeheartedly P-Man.

    A lot is said abut Hogan but Jack Viney is turning into a star before our eyes, hes playing phenomenal footy and opponents are scared any time hes in the vicinity. He can shutdown a superstar and hes also improved his attacking footy the last couple of months. (hes had a shot on goal the last 6 games and 7 of the last 8).

    A big chance for the Bluey despite unfortunately missing 6 games!

    Vince will win the bluey.

    If I was going to make a call now

    Hard to say whether Dunny or Cross will feature in the top 5, Would love to see Viney take it out, think back to his games against Joel Selwood, Gary Ablett and Jack Steven he has had a great season.

    You know I looked at this and thought, of all the comics I've read, surely there's one where Batman got some sort of flying power.

    I can think of at least two, but they're non-canonical.

    Not that canon means much to DC these days.

    So.... That Jack Viney. That's some tackler there.

    I wonder if Jack Viney can punch through a barrier of reality and retcon our drafting history?

    Lamashtu? Where does JV fiddling with our draft history fit?

    Obviously Nathan Jones would be the T-5000, the living embodiment of Skynet. His mission is to corrupt the leader of the future Melbourne premiership team, Angus Brayshaw, into a T-3000. He then corrupts an entire team of VFL-spec players into believing they are capable of being AFL-spec and winning more than 4 games in one season. Of course this doesn't factor in the time-travelling subplot where Simon Goodwin returns to 2011 and makes copies of Essendon's drugs program spreadsheets, before Vlad can tip them off.

    Geez that is a brutal tackle, and I absolutely love it.

    I have said a couple of times this year, but Jack's season has been excellent. I love the way he goes about it and I expect him to finish top 3 to 5 in the B&F

    I love the look on Weller's face when he looks down at the ground afterwards. Looks like he is thinking to himself "Why the f@#k did I just try to do that?"

    Toms had a poor 2nd half of the year but I reckon would've been leading the B&F prior to the pies, I would say 5th would be between himself, Dunn, Cross, and maybe Brayshaw. Would love to see Gawn heading the to pointy end of the B&F but I think his run will have been left too late.

    If there's been a better tackle ever, I don't remember it.

    Dawes against Adelaide last year.

    That was excellent, but I still think Viney's was much better.

    Does anyone know the format of the B&F count? If points are awarded to every player when they play that will not do Jack any good. If it's top 6 getting votes he could well surprise. He's been outstanding in my view.

    and about making the bloke in the other colour jumper experience pain. These are Viney's only interests.

    Yeah .... I do.

    Love to see him get Dustin Martin the same way.

    I love Viney, but I'm disappointed Brent Harvey didn't make an appearance in this thread after last week. Please act in the public interest, Jack.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

      It's finally Game Day and the Demons, under new head coach Steven King, will run out onto the field with a new looking lineup and a brand new midfield when they take on the Kangaroos this afternoon at Casey.
