He is a guy that the players will follow into battle and know that he will leave nothing on the park. And Rance knows that if you cheap shot a Melbourne player you'll have Jack Viney to deal with. 

Great stuff Jack!

With Jack signing it makes me reflect on recent non signings frawley and Howe and wonder how hard we really tried to sign them

We would have wanted to keep frawley. Howe we clearly gave up on as his expectations exceeded reality and at the moment he would not be in our starting 22.

Viney has set the tone, you are on the bandwagon or he will throw you off.

Looking forward to years and years of additions to the Jack Viney made me cry thread.

Love watching him play. They showed his stats during the GC game and several of them were in the elite category, but it's his heart and effort I love the most.

What a role model for Oliver, Brayshaw and Petracca. He's shown that if you live by the rule that you go harder than everyone around you, you can reach the heights of being an all-australian type performer in just your fourth year of footy. Let's hope the way he goes about things truly does rub off on his younger teammates (you'd think the effect of this will be stronger when he is named captain). Petracca in particular is scary concept - because if he plays with the intent and hardness that Viney does, he has the added  advantage of a very solid body that could make him very damaging indeed. Then think of the four of them in the middle all playing with Viney-like rage and toughness, who is going to stop them?

An opposition mid might get killed!

Excellent news but not surprising given the family history with the Demons.

Well done Jack.

Let's hope this influences some more early contract signings.

More fool them for getting in his way.

Exactly my thinking.

So much for that rubbish about him going to Port Adelaide. lol

Hard to fathom the number of Port supporters who thought they were a genuine chance of picking him up.

Beating Port this season has bumped up the list of things I'd like to see ticked off. Viney BOG would be the cherry on top.

I find it interesting footy show announced Viney was on the show last week, then conveniently few days later he signs for 4 years and is on the show tonight.

 

Kinda tells me they knew about this before the public did...

I would like to know to as I need to turn the channel on the missus watching master chef. Need to be certain as the repucussions will be nasty.

On the panel, and they just showed a highlight reel straight out of the Jack Viney Made Me Cry Thread - all the best hits. 

Edit: and now Jack has just delivered the line of the night, during a discussion about rules that couples have around sex. Viney: "No rules, just an understanding that post-game I'm not the one doing most of the work."

I was expecting him to be kinda nervous, but he was actually very relaxed and funny.

Must be in a good place.

Didn't see the show, but he's a very confident kid. Love him.

In this article Roos says how much Jones has deveoped as a captain.  For mine i loved the way he came out on Monday and settled everyone down after the "big' win to just focus on the next WB game.   

Roos also makes the point that JV and other young players now have great role models to learn from in Jones and Vince. 

So long since our players have had that...great role models to have!  

On the subject of Bernie hope he has a great 50th game for the Dees.  A real asset to our club.

Wouldn't expect any less from a Viney.

hopefully he has a son so the legacy keeps going for MFC.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

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
