MELBOURNE’S Jack Viney has undergone surgery on a fracture to his hand.  

The club’s AFL High Performance Manager Selwyn Griffith provided an update on the midfielder on Tuesday.

“Jack was completing a training session in Alice Springs as part of his return from concussion,” Griffith told Melbourne Media.

“During that session, he slipped over and unfortunately, follow-up imaging showed that he had sustained a fracture to one of the bones in his hand.

“After consulting with a specialist, Jack has undergone surgery and is currently recovering.

“The plan is to assess his availability once the wound is cleared, and we’ve followed up with the surgeon.”

 

[censored]... just marveee

Get better Jack.... all the best

Oi Vey !! 🥴

 

No justice in the world!

Hopefully he’s 1,000% recovered from his concussion when he finally gets back on the park.

Another reason to scrap the Alice

Oh yeah, clearly the venue's fault. Couldn't possibly have happened on any other ground. Nosiree!

He’ll be back for finals.

So glad you got in before me, because I'm not sure I had the courage.

A fractured hand will be fine after the bye.

According to the Sydney Hand Surgery Clinic: "In general it takes 6 weeks for a hand fracture to heal and a further 6 weeks to reach near normal strength. Very heavy lifting and contact sport should be avoided until the fracture has solidly healed (8-12 weeks)."

Let's just hope for the best.

Bizarre!

Wow, what a great season this is turning out to be.

While we're at it, let's add another game to the Alice ones not enough clearly.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
