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.

    Haven’t always been his biggest fan, but Viney is a finals player. His game tonight was sensational.

    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.

    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??

    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.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
