Can’t wait to see I’m play in a grand final.

He will seriously hurt. 

Hopefully he causes the whole opposition team to cry by the end of the game in two weeks.

    Super proud of Viney's efforts last night, and stoked for him on booking a GF berth. His family and particularly father Todd must be over the moon!

    Brilliant first half and possibly the best half he has ever played.

    Kept it up in the second half with less possessions but the same intensity. In our best 3 players.

    Well done Jack, enjoy and do it again in the GF.

    Absolutely. But when the Game was still hot, his relentless pressure broke them. 
    That is what September Footy is…

    Norm would be proud of that

    Yes and he probably held the vigour back a couple of notches, because of not wanting any MRO issues. Get the feeling that won’t be the case in the GF.

    His game was a revelation last night. Talk about stepping up!

    When my nerves have flared over the past few weeks I've pictured Jack Viney standing in front of the Cup. Anyone else who wants it has to get past him - he won't let it happen.

    Jack was simply awesome.  He started it in the engine room.  Looked like he just wanted it so badly.  Huge game.  His run and tackles and smart use of the footy.  

    He is a true Red and Blue Demon.

    Brilliant display of aggressive roving, rather than the bullocking mid. Like to see his take Mullet head Smith apart in GF.

    loved the way he got up into Selwood's grill when he gave away that 50

    To think last year he seriously considered joining Geelong.

    Ah the was waiting for you, yes he played very well give him that, but did not see a different game style from him.

    1. Instead of see ball get ball he actually spread when he did not have the ball.

    2. The first instinct of trying to break tackles he gave off handballs nearly performed Olivers role of the past and it has allowed Oliver and co to be able to be more outside runners.

    3. His depth of kicking is still a problem but can go past that if he keeps playing that way.

    Jack Viney had a really impressive game.

    What was most pleasing was his kicking!

    I feel that the positive influence of Mark "Choco" Williams has definitely assisted with Jack Viney's kicking.

    Either way, I am sure his Father and Demon great Todd Viney would be incredibly proud of his son!

    I’m not into censorship, but this thread ought be deleted - it’s disrespectful to a legend of the club.

    Once again, Jack earned 5 free kicks. Next best was 2. It’s his post- suspension trend. Didn’t get caught once, lots of score assists. Agree with @Ron Burgundy, thread is past its ‘used by’, or should never have been.

    but you are asking for censorship of the subject by asking for it to be deleted!!

    That two week enforced holiday certainly freshened him up. I always felt he was always returning prematurely after injuries and only making things worse.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • 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?
