I  feel  very uncomfortable to hear you and Joeboy describing Viney as selfish.

The guy gives his all for the team, and for the club.  He is so brave for the team's cause that he endures repeated physical onslaughts.

I hope to hell he doesn't read Demonland.      If he does , I hope he realises that the vast majority of Demon supporters appreciate and admire his efforts. 

  I am appalled by suggestions that we should consider trading a guy who I think of as the heart and soul of our club.

Norm Smith was heart and soul of our club as well, look what happened to him! Just Sayin!

I just want to put my hand up and say i was wrong. I've held the private belief we'd never be any good with Jack in. I thought he was a liability offensively.

Well done Jack.

We are on top of the ladder and some on here want to trade our 3rd best mid with 2 months of footy left.

It’s pathetic and moot and are you on the teams side here? 

We are a chance for a deep run into finals and some of you are already in trade week. That’s MFCSS Dark.

When you are right, you're right. And when you are wrong you're @demon3165... Rugby players don't play like that.

I know his contracted but needs to be considered. He adds nothing to us and clubs like Port are crying out for inside mids, we could make out like bandits.

I have always stayed true to this player. What a warrior he is. 

A footy players footy player. Amazing.

Sometimes it’s sweet being right, rpfc. He’s all demon, is Jack Viney. Made special sharp for the pointy end of things.

Jack has played some very average Home and Away games at times. 
 

But by God he has played some superb finals. 
When the Pressure goes up Jack is ready. 
Jeelong went at him hard in the first half, Jack just got up and kept going 

He will be a weapon on GF Day

Playing with power and a willingness to defend is extremely valuable in finals, especially in our team. Look at how well Sparrow has taken to it.

If you're playing in a big game, he's a player you want on your side.

He is a weapon forged for the crucible of finals destined to be utilised to devastating impact when the intensity is at its zenith.

Jack Viney was bred for AFL Finals football.

2 weeks until the plebs realise once and for all.

Been fantastic since he's come back from suspension.

Will fittingly play his 150th game for the Demons in the Grand Final as well.

Sliding doors decisions last trade week with Viney turning down Geelong to stay with the Dees and Isaac Smith turning down Melbourne to sign with the Cats.

Shut this thread down ... said it around the time it was opened also

Agree, it really is ridiculous. You don't trade heart and sole players like Vines. Time in the magoos maybe, but trade??

I’m excited for him to take on Macrae or his bestie Wines next week. Bones will be crushed. 

Wines got Jack when he was underdone last time ... will be a different story next time

Is this gonna be one of those "To all of you who wrote Jack Viney off, are you going to show some guts and apologise?" thread bumps?

I think Viney will only get better. He’s been injured a lot. If he could remain on the park more he’ll start hitting more targets and lowering his eyes. If he does that he is going to be a better player. He shown early in his career that he can adapt and change his game. A facet of his game that he needs to develop is to steady himself at times and lowers his eyes. He’ll get there. Good game tonight. He is capable of that.

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
