25. Kyle Cheney [184cm 86kg 25.08.89 - 0 games 0 goals] - 2008 was a development year for the hard at it medium defender from North Ballarat Under 18's.

Cheney started the season in the Sandy reserves and showed steady improvement despite some injury concerns. By late in the season, he was showing good form playing deep in defence for the Zebra seniors.

    Seems to be hard at it and uncompromising, that's a mix that we are in desperate need of. Can only hope that he comes along in leaps & bounds in 2009.

    i wanna bring back this thread im really intrested to hear what peoples thoughts on this kid. from what i have heard he has actually bualked up and looks fit aswell. with johnson gone could we see cheney play a couple of games next year just off the half back? i hear he is really aggressive and plays hard which comes really handy

    His form for Sandy near the end of the season was very good...he came on in leaps and bounds this year..originally from Warracknabeal, he's a terrrific young kid and I hope he does well for Melbourne

    Still needs a fair degree of improvement if he is to get a game with the Dees. He is definitely hard at the contest and that is a big positive.

    I loved him straight out, for his toughness and attitude, so I expected more from him in his first year.

    I don't see the upside with him, unless Wrecker can teach him a thing or two.

    Sounds like the complete opposite of Christine Johnson!

    Was a speculative draft pick, so we won't slit our wrists if he never comes good. But would cap off a sensational draft ,if he becomes a player.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
