Tom Morris just reported that North is targeting Jack Viney to “reunite” him with his father. 

Demonland implosion incoming…

Didn't Tom Morris get cancelled? Now he's reporting on the Tarryn Thomas subject... Odd 🤔

No way!  They'd have to throw in LDU as well to make the deal fair for all parties.

Makes sense - experienced leader who can bring the rest of the team with him

Straight swap for Sheezel, or should they hafta throw in a second round pick as a sweetener?

Jordan Lewis type recruitment. 

It's smart move by the Roos and don't blame them for having a crack. He'd be perfect for a team with young up and coming midfield like North.

It’s Tom Morris folks. Let’s wait and see if anybody else reports it before reading too much into it.

Yep, it feels very much like a Lewis or Mitchell thing.

I just wonder if we're the ones who have floated this.

Jack slowed down this year and I reckon he's got 1-2 more years of brutal good footy left in him. 

If he could get a longer deal at North it might make sense for his family.

The idea of seeing him run around in another jumper, particularly a North jumper is gross though.

Taking the emotional attachment away...

Norf get the prototype professional to lead Norf's midfield for a couple years

Dees get a solid pick

Jack gets his super topped up after winning a flag at his boyhood club

Highly unlike it happens but I dunno if it's that crazy

IF it starts to get reported from other sources then I think it goes from 0-100% real quick given the father/son aspect. Not like there’s going to be player managers leaking rubbish.

2, 22, 40

Everybody is tradeable for the right price, would be absolutely bizzare seeing Vines in anything but red and blue however

I think it's probably more just Norf discussing names internally more than mutual interest

I'd rate those picks: Solid, Liquid, Gaseous, in that order.

Makes sense for North but this is Tom Morris so I would not place much truth in his work.

He seems to get great dees mail

If this madness was to happen I would prefer a player like Xerri and some pick swaps.

Xerri is soon the be the AA ruck so not sure that'd happen

Which is why I think we're floating the idea via the press.

Zero chance of this happening next year. Maybe down the line when he's 34-35 in his twilight years and he's getting pushed out for younger/fitter mids.

He's the most competitive footballer I've ever seen. If you think he's going to agree to a trade to a bottom-four development side, you're dreaming.

Some of the rumors flying around are just laughable.

As @Binmans PA said, maybe it's us that is floating this idea instead of Jack.

He should be banned now. This guy has had more cases against him previously and North themselves admitted that they’ve tried and failed to rehabilitate him. He doesn’t belong in this league. We can’t be rewarding someone who is a repeated offender in this space with a fat paycheck just because he can kick a footy. 
 

All still in the courts, have to let it play out first.

Or open yourself up for legal action later.  Once found guilty, ban him for life.

I doubt that. Would be sad if that's the case. More likely that North would pose the idea which makes sense for them.

  • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
