We just lost neita. Buckets will surely follow. Forwardline depth will be an issue, and dunn will get his chances.

He stays!

When I watched Dunn in his early(-ier) days at AFL level I thought he looked like a 'natural' forward. However, he doesn't seem to have the body of the KPP that some people wish he was.

Up forward he plays more like a small forward than a KPP. There's a reason why he's not playing for Melbourne and just going at Sandy.

Physically Dunn and Frawley have the frame to fill out to be KPP but do they have the mentality to play the KPP?

who knows but i'll definitely give them time.

With no Robbo, Holland and possibly Newton not playing this weekend, surely he has to get a chance on the forward line.

is this another case of a talented and Melbourne listed player just being absorbed into the ether?

what a waste...

I'd like to see Dunn played in a Ryan O'Keefe style role off a half forward flank. He's got a pretty good engine and would compliment Miller and Bate also pushing up the ground.

I like this idea, but going forward we're going to play Miller and Bate as high leading half forwards, and Sylvia's body will never allow him to play full games in the midfield, so he's going to be rotating through half forward and the midfield. That's how half forward setup going forward, with Davey and Wona moving up and down between wing and the forward pocket. We need a full forward still, and while Dunn has great goal sense, he isn't a strong enough lead/mark to play full forward.

Two years ago I had him pencilled in in the role that Bate is now playing, with Bate playing more in the midfield. That's gone the other way now, and that's fine as Bate can play that role well, but I'd like to see Dunn up forward and not in the midfield. That said, I'm finding it hard to fit him in.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
