Congratulations to Jack Viney on 200 games bleeding Red & Blue for the Demons.

From arriving at a club in crisis to raging like a bull to help lead us to a flag.  

A true club champion & the player you want right beside you in the trenches.

Jack’s heart beats true ❤️💙

Here’s to 100 more Vines 🔴🔵😈

Congratulations Jack. Had the great pleasure of attending games at the ‘G and seeing your Dad play and later captain the side. Not so much of your good self. Living in the periphery at Darwin. But l do strongly recall the first time at Marrara probably in your first season. One committed, courageous act intercepting an opposition pass with fierce determination. Where angels fear to tread. Another chip off the Viney block. Fast forward to September 2021 Preliminary Final in Perth. Max put on the show but IMM you were best on the ground. When complimented at training later in the campaign you were not only appreciative but humble to boot. Long May You Run.

Not many tougher players in the game's history. Love your work, Jack. Grew up in the 1990s Dees changerooms, drafted at our lowest ebb, willed us back to competitiveness, and reached the summit in 2021. Yet still seems to be getting better somehow. Hope he plays forever.

He wasn’t too bad in The Grand Final either!❤️

Jack has well and truly lived up to the early hype placed on him. Unlucky not to have an AA blazer and has all the other accolades. Hopefully he can get to 300!

You can add me to the "Jack Viney made me cry" thread - one or two tears after watching that. I know Jack will play his 200th the same as his first 199 - there is just no other way.

Jack should have got an AA Jacket in ‘21 for just his Grand Final performance alone. He was the extractor during “Bang x4”

One of my favourite players, because he plays like we all think we can play but have no hope in hell in even coming close in replicating. 

The most courageous, hardworking and toughest player to don a guernsey in the modern era. Was one very few players to have pulled us out of the darkest era of history and build the standards that won us our first flag in over half a century.

Thank you Jack and congratulations!

Every other opposition fan would take him in their team in a heartbeat.

Jack has given us so many memorable moments already and like Goody said today, he has helped shape the club to what it is now.

The most mentally tough player i can think of. We would not be here and won a flag without him

One of the first to turn our club around in terms of demanding greatness, and then leading by example.  
A true red and blue icon from birth. 

Well done on 200 ruthless games. I’ve never seen a player who is more determined to win and gives absolutely everything they have every second of every game. Jack doesn’t know the meaning of not going at 110% and we are lucky to have him lead our club.

An amazing player first and foremost. Then a leader, he and Gawn are yin and yang I feel.

Great story.

And those Ch7 intros are all they are good at with the footy. The night is downhill from then on.

I've been critical of Jack at times over the journey, but there is no doubting his vital importance in turning our club around by driving standards and competitiveness. 

Congrats on 200, Jack. Let's hope he gets another flag or two.

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti
