Demon Jacks

Featured Replies

My memory is poor and I have only managed to come with just 6 Melbourne players with first name of Jack.

No particular order mine are;

Jack Steele

Jack Billings

Jack Trengove

Jack Watts

Jack Viney

Jack Mueller (In my view the greatest of the Jacks.)

Can my fellow posters help swell this list?

Reminds me of this one match I was watching where St Kilda had six players named Jack on the field at the same time. A third of their team named Jack. And you’d have no excuse for not knowing this since BT mentioned EVERY FIVE [censored] MINUTES.

Hendo

Brilliant Google AI could only come up with 4:

At least four players named Jack have played for the Melbourne Football Club: Jack Viney, Jack Trengove, Jack Billings, and Jack Sinclair. Jack Viney is a current player, while Jack Trengove is a former captain. Jack Billings joined Melbourne in 2024, and Jack Sinclair played for the Melbourne Football Club for a short period after moving from St Kilda, although he is not currently on the list??

Mark Jackson was a Jack in the box.

The best guide to find Melbourne players is the MFC Heritage numbers list. After my memory effort, I cheated and consulted this list and discovered a grand total of 53 Demon Jacks. Before the 1950s there were over 40. Popular name then! From my time following the Dees, I did forget Jack Grimes, Jack Henderson and going back to the 50s Jack Thomson. So 6 out of 9 is a bare pass! So Google list was pretty sparse wasn't it? Thanks Rod.

No one remembers “Me-off”? Surely.

More info, pls, Gawnie!

And wasn't this guy one of the Jacks taken in our little-known original Irish experiment?...

Judicious addition of an 'r' may help.

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
