Player Watch #7: Jack Viney (VC) - in until 2028

[netslave]

Viney and Salem's 2021 goals double dose (I'm finally running out of goals).

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

Returned to the role of Skipper tonight and pulled out his very best. BOG and set the tone for the team to follow. Could easily get a job at the local butcher after footy, but god, when he is in that kind of mindset is there a better contested player in the comp. Wouldn’t be many that can play as hard.

Huge tonight, doesn’t play like this every week but has a knack of pulling it out when the stakes are high. Had me wondering if we under rate him at times. Big game from Jack and a big win tonight.

I remember in 2017 Jones the co captain went down and Viney stepped up as sole captain against the eagles and absolutly lead from the front.

Did the same thing tonight. Doesn't always have it thrust upon him, but when he needs to lead he takes the challenge head on

Phenomenal tonight, but he's been really good all year. Best season he's had

Unbelievable month and a bit.

Best game he’s ever played

Reminded me of the exact same game. Our last game at Subi and a rare win, was stoked to be there.

It's amazing what happens when he has a proper pre season and is fit and healthy.

Came here to mention 2017 game - already mentioned a number of times.

He's a monster. Injured a number of Lions players fair and square too.

Love the bloke

Well seeing how we're talking about that 2017 game i'll just leave this here

This was a revenge hit very well disguised.

That's it. That's the post

consistently the toughest campaigner i have seen in football.

Unbelievable month and a bit.

Easily the best month and a bit ever in Australian Football history, for mine.

I also maintain that, while there have been some dips in form from time to time, Jack Viney, Vice Captain, has the best ongoing Melbourne hair since Dom Tyson

There isn't enough product in the world for him to overtake Viney in the good hair stakes

Would be hard to beat Allen Jakovich's from his 3rd game in 1991. Kicked his first 50 goals quicker than anyone in league history despite doing nothing in his first game and kicking "only" 3 in his 2nd.

From round 15 he ran riot in 1991, kicking bags of 8,6,6,8,7,11 and 5 in his next seven games

Yes, but what about his hair?

Quoted the wrong person, was meant for the man with no head.

edit - also Jack Viney is great.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Wouldn't surprise me if he's 2nd in the b&f right now. Love watching him play when he's in that mood. Absolutely monstered a pretty tough midfield. Gives us an option to rest Trac forward more if Viney is dominating too. Harmes tagging, Oliver under the pack and Viney bullying. Such a luxury when all those guys are up and about.
