Jack Viney signs huge new 4 year deal.

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.

Guns aren't big enough :P


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."

:roos:

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.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
