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.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
