Jack Viney signs huge new 4 year deal.

Featured Replies

Just adds to the great feeling I have about the future (upwards) direction of our Club ..... starting from next Sunday!

 

Combine how much talent we have at a young age along with Dawes/Grimes out of contract we should have a fair bit of money. 

Come in Jack Watts.

 

Never ever did I worry about Jack going. His heart and blood is red and blue. Next captain for sure and what a great season he is having. 

Fantastic news

There is obviously so much going on behind the scenes we punters just dont know about. and thats how it should be ... Now lets sign up a few more... Who's next?

Well done team on all the work that led to this signing

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

Frawley just puts an x on the line I'm told.

So it was always going to be hard to get his signature.

Whilst the mercenaries will always exist there are also those for whom the jumper, the history and the chance to enjoy the resurgent era mean more. Viney is amongst these. More so Jack understands he's causal to this and meets destiny head on ..... with a smile.

The more such players do do the more likely it is to happen.

We didn't

They were never part of tomorrow's  picture

There are plenty to thank for our turn around.

Jack Viney made his team mates change by showing them how to tackle. They all got on board.

We stopped being bruise free 2 years ago.

if you are too weak to hang around while the side develops and instead want to barnacle yourself onto a successful club, than you don't have the strength of character required to be at the MFC, and there's the door

I don't GAF how much they paid him. Loyalty or family connections have nothing to do with it. Jack Viney is now elite property and will be paid as such.

Could not agree more. My immediate reaction. Your first sentence sums it up. Its not always about the money. Also shows how well this club is now being managed. If you were going to sign up mid season one of your gun players who would it be. Jesse Hogan? No wrong, Jack Viney. Heart and Soul. Massive strategic move, A really powerful action that will impact on the club, its players and supporters. Jack Viney is Melbourne.

What happened to Damien Barretts pathetic claim that Jack Viney was going to Port Adelaide this was never going to happen as he is true Red & Blue his Father played here not to mention that we are on the way up. I can't stand him he is always taking cheap shots at our club

Is that the same Damien Barrett that criticised us trading for Dom Tyson and then admitted he has never seen him play? 

When this one re Viney came up, it reaffirmed my belief that he was a demon for life.

Just waiting for the hogan trade scoop from Barrett to know jesse will sign with us again a mega deal within a week!

How good would it be to see him holding up the premiership cup one day...? 

Haha, agreed, but let's be honest, we'd all be happy with anyone holding up the premiership cup, as long as they were wearing the red and blue jumper. :P


As far as $ are concerned, the Herald Sun are reporting it could be up to $2.5mil over 4 years, depending on bonuses for b&f and brownlow finishes

Worth every cent

Was going to say the same. Whatever it is, it is well worth it. The guy is just such a leader, he has played 56 games?! Imagine how good he will be at 100+, frightening for opposition teams.

 

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?

Bargain.

Viney is the beating heart of the MFC.

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
