"Effectively missed a third of the season, given he was injured from rounds three to eight and was substitute upon return against Port Adelaide in round nine. The fact that he played 16 of 22 matches and still managed to finish runner-up and fall short of equaling Vince by the narrowest of margin was testament to his exceptional form in the games he played."

* quote from MFC site

That's my ball. Give it back.

If we could somehow bottle that attitude and give it to the rest to drink we'd win every flag for the next 500 years.

I don't know how to link the photo, but that shot of him strutting away from Selwood down on his knees just sums up the guy. Strong, arrogant, fierce competitor.

and getting better.......and better

crazy to think he's yet to hit the 50 game mark.

for mine, he is the equivalent of our joel selwood - he's fierce at the contest, determined, brave, and has the neversaydie attitude that you just pray for in your prime-mover midfielders.

he belies his height too by competing in the air against bigger blokes and we all know how strong he is at ground level.

he's a gem.

If we had 22 players running out each week with the competitive spirit of Jack Viney, we would be a very hard side to beat. If he can add a bit more polish to his kicking over games 50 - 100, we will have a super player on our hands.

Nathan Jones 2.0.

Love him

Preaching to the converted here but will be one of the pillars of a new DEMON dynasty. Takes no prisoners, accepts no mediocrity. Will drag some kicking and screaming to a new level. Epitomises the heart and soul player with class that every team needs.

His quote when interviewed after the Geelong game about the flak he was copping from Selwood sums it up for me.

" It didn't worry me - I love that sort of sh*t".

Not named in the All Australian 22 for under 22's. Yet someone like Tom Langdon does.

Please explain?

Whats even funnier is that some said after the Nab cup essendon game that Viney was not in our best 22!

Would love to name some but il save them the embarrassment.

I remember when some were happy to let him pass in the draft because of his height.

With his attitude, nothing was going to be holding him back. Can't love the way he goes about it enough.

would that be when you completely crapped urself because we lost a practice game and you wrote the season off?

I agree re his kicking.

Surely, over the holiday period he should run quietly around an oval for a short time each day, simply kicking the ball with the right foot. He should not be content to be one-sided. Look how effective Vince is on the left when necessary, and for the Hawks, Mitchell is just a standout with did

Oral by both feet

Gun. Hoges said in interview that Viney is always the first one to start speaking up at meetings and almost tries to take too much on. Future captain. Tackle of the year in the saints game, 'you argue at your own peril with Jack Viney'.

Jack Viney.

Full stop.

Some also said we shouldn't take him at ND3 if we were forced to...

Unfortunately Jack is competing with a much deeper pool of talent than what Langdon is for a position in the under 22 AA squad.

The fact that Luke Parker is under 22 is mind boggling.

I'm sure Jack will crack the squad if he keeps this incline in form going and progresses like Jones.

Love him.

Work on your kicking skills over summer Jack

The rest comes natural to you...

That was me.

Yes, I wrote him off because I thought his kicking was atrocious last year and in the NAB Challenge

I've already eaten my pie - humble flavour

See Jack couldn't make it into the best 22 under 22 at the AFLPA awards.

Surprises me.

He would have had my vote if anyone asked
