Ridiculous Jack Viney rumour

Featured Replies

 

Viney is as close to Demon royalty as you get....that's Red and Blue blood

Finito

Ablett Jnr left, probably the most beloved 'favourite son' in the city (not just the footy club) of Geelong...  that is how low we have steeped as a competition, with players just putting their selfish motives first... so I wouldn't rule it out

And his Dad gets a new job. And his family have to move back to SA. And he walks out on his father's club, the club he has supported,  that took him as a father son. And he leaves his mates. And he leaves at a time when we are on the up. And he leaves the G and, and, and.

So much like and only one like button


Some malevolent forces must be [ ... ] scared of a Melbourne uprising and now trying this rubbish. 

Funny

Do you think the same comments would have been said about Abbott Jnr before he left the Cats?

There appears to be little loyalty left in the AFL these days.

So the only opinion left is for the Dees to win the 2016 flag and finally show them all who is boss.

GO THE DEES! !!!

Ablett moved for money. I have no doubt our offer to Viney would be greater than what Port would offer.

The crux of it is here.

"...The funny thing is, that I have heard from a mate that would know - that Jack Vineys manager has been in close contact with the club about coming across as well!!

Apparently he is looking for the chance to play finals and to be a part of a club that can realistically provide that as Melbourne is not likely to for a very long time.

Watch this space..."

 

Yeh, the irony is that we will be well above PA on the ladder this year. Next....


The rumour posted was that Viney wants to play finals sooner than later. He really doesn't strike me as the type of kid who wants a free ride to finals. 

Phew, I thought he might me injured.

My sources are telling me the powers that be are working on a straight swap Viney  for Wines, it is all but a done deal. 

Of course my sources have been highly unreliable in the past.

Not only that, he moved up north to be the face of a brand new football club.  His circumstances are vastly different.

It's all moot though.  Viney won't be going anywhere.

I've been told Wines and Toumpas for Viney.


The Ablett comparison is absurd. 

There'll be no other expansion club in Viney's career.

Let's hope so re new clubs but who knows they may go for 20 at some stage hoping quantity gets more TV dollars.I put nothing past The Gill in his quest to destroy the game.

that's the BS part. 'Family reasons' is another example of this. Nobody is honest about it because it seems tasteless to openly state you are selling out.  It's money, always money, and it trumps everything. Which is why the notion of anybody leaving us is never 'ridiculous'

There was also a rumour once, equally ridiculous, that Damien Barrett was a top journalist.

If that were true he wouldn't have come to us in the first place!

It's just that with Barrett it's effortless. The rest of us have to work at it!

Has anyone else cone across a rumour that has been put out there on social media that apparently started with Damo Barrett suggesting Viney will leave MFC in 2017 to join Port Adelaide.

I know that Damo is a [censored], but this is about the worst of his work. 

Please someone put this one to bed. 

hutchy's settting up barrett to get his old job back again...? about as much relieability as barrett anywho.

I heard this too ET,  & then Viney to return home to Mfc in 2019 as captain.

Don't even give this rubbish oxygen.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
