Can't specifically say to much but my information comes from someone employed by the club. I don't post everything i'm told, but this will be announced in due course so i'm coming forth now. 

Bloody great news!

    Would have thought the B&F would have been the perfect time to announce that he had signed on.

    Perhaps I'm wrong but I can't remember a single time a contract announcement has been done during the BnF. Doesn't seem like the appropriate forum to me, particularly with some players already shown the door and others most likely knowing they're up for trade. To me it doesn't seem very tactful.

    They never do that as they like to keep things separate. If he had signed though I'm sure we'd be hearing something about it very shortly.

    He doesn’t come across as the sort of person that would take the limelight at such an event

    Its actually laughable he finished ahead of Ed Langdon and as high as 3rd.

    Langdon had a much more productive and team orientated year then Viney.

    You don't know his instructions. What you, or any of us actually see is not the whole story, not by a long way.

    The guy has been locked up in Qld with a 2 week old baby with no support from parents etc. Played a hellish schedule and missed finals. Time he had a little space. It won't kill us to wait for the decision. It's our pastime it is his life. 

    Well said Old Dee, hopefully the Covid crisis has given us all a reality check on what is important in life.

    It aint money or material possessions that's for sure

    Good to see a couple of demonland contributors @Lord Nev, @Dannyzare on the money.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Great news

    In line with term I heard rumoured

    Flip side of those rumours was who was a likely exit from the midfield group. Will have to chase some more mail and revert

    I challenge anyone who’s had babies only a few months old to move them with a new mum to another state with no family support, the stresses would be enormous as Jack alluded they almost come back, not making excuses as many other afl clubs had similar challenges but they would all vary not knowing health & state of both baby, mum & dad

    Same. I really liked the look of the Roti Maker for $29.95. A late 2nd/3rd rounder should get it done, I reckon.

    This is a great post. ?

    Yes agree AF 

    Viney is all Melb and as with all players is a "work in progress".

    The Coaches  must be more Ruthless and train him on kicking Right Foot and the first option.

    His disposal improved since earlier in the season and ALL Demons MUST develop this aspect of their game for us to go to the next level or two.

    Well done Jack all The best with your 
    little one during the off season.

    Bring on 2021 

     

    Oh I really hope its true he's signed on. Such an important player. I was starting to sweat on him leaving.

    Came in this year sans captain role but:

    - Noticebly fitter. Ran out games much better and seems injury free finally.

    - As mentioned improved disposal. Less rushed more considered.

    I want this guy in the centre in the heat of a final next year. He and Max are our heart and soul.

    @Dannyz could you please remember to put the hyphen in...it's grammatically correct and VERY MFC.

    I'm happy to bundle up the ice cream maker my wife bought six years ago (which has yet to be used), the shorts she bought me yesterday and a half eaten jar of Spreewalder pickled gherkins.

     I would never put you, or many others, in the "vehemently opposed to everything Jack Viney does" category Redleg. I was aiming my comments at those who show total disrespect to, and constant underrating of Jack's role and worth to the team.

    Fair enough.


    If we have signed him for 4 or 5 years I believe this will come back to bite big time! As iterated limited player who won't improve.Will keep making the same errors time and time again. Before anyone wants to criticise then this is just my opinion.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
