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.

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: Western Bulldogs

    The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
