Demon Jacks

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.

    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??

    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.

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

    Judicious addition of an 'r' may help.

    • PREVIEW: Brisbnae

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons return to Melbourne and the hallowed turf of the MCG where they face dual reigning Premiers Brisbane on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.
