    Took 3 Dockers, all bigger than him, to rip his guernsey off him. Love it.

    It’s a ripping pic - pun not intended! Never seen a player so gleeful while in a fracas!

    I reckon Jack’s close to the toughest player I’ve seen. Proper tough, not deck someone behind play, or grow a mullet and pinch your opponent until their arm gets a bruise tough. He’s at his best when he’s dealing and receiving hurt in equal measure. Just love it.

    There was some contested footy in the centre square during the third where he crunched 1 Freo player bringing him to ground, tripped a second Freo player over with his head and then got up and brought a third player down with another crunching tackle.

    What amazed me in that skirmish at the end of the third was after decking Walters, he had three Freo players come at him and he didn't even raise his hands up to instinctively protect himself.

    He just kinda came at them and roared in full beast mode while they tried to rip his Guernsey off.

    You can see in the photo, his hands stayed down the whole time as if egging them on to throw one just to make him angrier.

    He's just brilliant to watch when the red haze comes over him.

    I saw that passage of play in the centre and it was beautiful work. Only Jack could use his head to tackle the opposition. They all fell like ninepins in his wake.

    The photo really has all the hallmarks of that “step into my office” attitude, doesn’t it?

    It was just really positive to see Jack moving freely with that zip, I haven't seen that for a long time now. I'd just about conceded the foot injury had robbed him of his best footy.

    What is the record for most ripped jumpers? it seems to be a feature of J.Viney. Wouldn't be surprised if he retires with the record.

    Yet again, reputation enhanced in a big game!

    Viney lives rent free in Geelong midfield's heads!

    I am actually worried for Libba and Bont.

    Jack Viney-Norm Smith Medalist 2021

    That would be great.  He's a genuine finals performer Ol' Jack and he ain't no gentleman once he crosses the white line.

    Hoping all of our big names turn it on in the granny.  Many hands make light work!

    With Gawn big running goal, after Viney handballs to Trache gets a small block to the unwashed filthbag Guthrie and drops him. 
    I reckon he hunts Libba and gets in his head or tell him Bonts knee needs a fitness test.

    This thread needs a video mash-up with some of Vineys best moments in the lead up to the game, any tech savvy experts?

    (Oh and then post it to all of your bulldogs mates)

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
