What sort of complete [censored] writes this about Viney whose leadership is not in question at all?

    I love Viney but I don't understand why we needed to do such a long deal given he had one year left.

    Similar to Max, the club must be preparing for the future.

    Both in terms of cap space and handing over the reign to the next generation.

    They will help develop the young guns coming through.

    I am confident Max will still be a top liner in three years but less confident in Jack will be in four. Would love to be proven wrong.

    We're following the Geelong model.

    Great to have Jack re-signed until 2028.

    Except that Geelong don't hand out 4 years to guys in their 30s.

    I love Jack Viney and never thought he'd leave, but a 4 year deal is insane.

    Fantastic! Barring a catastrophe, he should get to 300 games.

    A bit disappointed Lamby didn't consult with DeeSpencer prior to this, but I'll take it.

    Huh? Jack wrote it. It's clearly a thinly veiled swipe at the media who think the culture is [censored] cos if it was he wouldn't be bringing his daughters into the club?!?

    What are you talking about? Jack is 30. Tom Hawkins is 36... Dangerfield 34, Duncan 33 and Selwood played until he was 35.

    It's not beyond the realm of possibility that Jack will get another deal after this one...

    Such a poor show of reactionary-ism from this terrible club to snap-sign Gawn and Viney on long term contracts just to try in vain to present the image of a functioning footy club.

    Love Viney but is this the right move, he would be 35 by the end of that contact, not many make it that long let alone smallish inside mids.

    4 years for a beat up one dimensional mid who has to nurse a cooked shoulder through half the game. 

    Look I agree that 4 years is a stretch but there is such a thing as shoulder surgery and I've long believed Jack could be very effective in the forward 50.  With Gus and ANB leaving we're desperately short of off-field leadership - Max, Jack, Lever (who you don't rate) and then daylight, to steward a lot of young players on the rise.  IMO we've paid a premium for what Jack can deliver in this area.

    I would think in 2025 his contract will be front loaded and then will gently taper. He may still be worth 1 year contracts after 35. He is Jack Viney

    He is just as big a Legend of the Club as Max, Tracc or Gus

    Happy to be proven wrong but can you find any of them signing a 4 year deal?

    Or even a 3 year deal over 30?

    Wheres the faith between the club and player that they’ll keep playing at the right pay rate for as long as needed.

    4 is bonkers.

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
