This Package deserves discussion. This is such an incredible effort by our 2IC

Jack was brutal and focused for 4 Quarters. It is relentless. AFL Players play like this for a Quarter and get praised and rightly so. 
Jack did it all night, even in the last Quarter 

This is one of the greatest efforts from 1 player in the History of the MFC

I am so proud of him

Thanks for this Edit Mighty 

Keep it in perspective please.

I love Jack as well but one of the greatest efforts ????

Lets not demean past champions.

I've seen Gary Hardeman, Big Carl, Ray Biffin, Laurie Fowler & others all bleed for the club & lead from the front.

I’ve seen all those Players too. 
But Jack took it too another level. 
All the players you mentioned have never trained to the level of todays players, and i mean no disrespect to them. It’s a different game now. 
Viney’s intensity did not drop off. Players from the 70’s were not able to do that

Strange lot you have put up as a comparison. All of them except GH laid coathangers on their opponents. I guess back then that's how they lead from the front.

A better person would not tag @demon3165and remind him of his heresy and urge recantation and I am not that better person…

Well it seems your not a bright person, if you can read I said he played a different game in the finals last year than during the year and he played well for it, you can thank me for helping him, instead of trying to take everyone on he played like Clarry early years get ball give it off to someone on the run so he was a different footballer and is better off for it, but thanks for the attempt at a cheap shot.

Just extraordinary. He was still doing it all in the last quarter 

that’s what i would show to new recruits…

”This is what Captain’s do”

Maybe show Jacko and Angus the footage and tell them they could be up against this if they leave 😱

Hardly cheap, I am offering redemption for you soul; a chance to recant and say you were wrong about someone so important to your club…

DJR as well you remember there was the small matters  of punching, elbowing and flattening as well. We know they were condoned with regularity, and yes it was led from the front by every side. Things change and so did the rules. Unless I'm wrong I thought Hardeman got reported too

I loved his game but that highlights package doesn’t do it justice. 
 

His influence isn’t portrayed as overly clean and meaningful to the untrained eye. 
His brute strength and will to win the ball and move it forward was pretty bloody impressive. ❤️💙💪

The Captain just set the Agenda for the Run Home

People often credit Max's leadership with our flag, but it's pretty clear to me that between them, Jack and Max make a pretty dynamic duo.  I think Jack deserves to be captain in his own right again some day and think he'd do a great job of it too.

Thursday’s game did his chances no harm

I reckon Jacks been living the shadow of CP and Oliver fr a while. Having the captaincy back fr a few weeks might just have been what he needed. Critical to flag hopes.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
