I'm glad your not coach Roost it, It's this type [censored] talk that keeps average players on a list too long. It's people like you, That like they way Bate goes about it. Listen up up mate and I'll spell it out for you. DUNN & BATE were taken at picks 13 & 15 in the 2004 draft HOW LONG !!!!! does a midfielder/forward need to develop THEY ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH !!!!!!!

Go back to bed simple.

I'm glad I'm not coach as well.

Me expressing my opinions of players and their potential for improvement does not keep anyone on the list for too long. As much as I'd like to be able to talk to Dean Bailey regarding players I just don't have that contact.

People like me, please tell me, what sort of person am I?

I'm listening and thanks for spelling it out, did you use a dictionary? there's some big words there!

Currently neither is playing particularly well, I'm certainly not saying they are. What I am saying is that in my opinion, Dunn has the potential to change his ways regarding contesting the contested ball. That is all I'm saying but thanks for your input. Bate is for another thread.

Regarding going back to bed, I think I'll just hit the couch and read my book. Now that is simple!

I will reserve my judgement on Dunn (career wise) until the end of the season on principle. IMO this is probably the best opportunity he will have to exhibit his football repertoire if given the opportunity - which he seems to be getting so far this year. To me it stands to reason to give final judgement after he has been given that opportunity ie after round 22. With injuries mounting and many youngsters for him to shine out against you would think he would show his hand this year. On the same token, if he hasn't shown a standard of football far superior to what we have mostly seen from him then he is in trouble and won't have anyone to blame but himself. Being moved around different positions probably doesn't help but he has to be in it more and look like a strong and willing contributor. If he doesn't take the bull by the horns throughout the remainder of the season then it could be sayonara.

Lynden Dunn ready to play anywhere, everywhere for Melbourne Demons

There's a very funny, and I mean very funny, paragraph in that article.

Can anyone pick it ?

The "hard stuff", as Dunn puts it, holds no fears for him. In fact, nothing on the footy field really does; backing into packs, poor form, criticism - it's just part of the game.

The hard stuff holds no fear for him, perhaps he should start proving that. I'd also question poor form not being a concern, of anyones

We have a couple of winners...

Drop Dunn please. I would like to see him eventually make the team again but atm he is just playing Crap footy.

He was soft today wasn't he?

always is.

lacks the hard stuff, and doesnt make body contact. probably not his own fault has only brad miller to look up to which isnt the greatest role model in playing hard and crashing into blokes.

That's unbelievably pathetic........

What we think is irrelevant. What Bails asks of him and how Bails sees the success or failure of that jon is what matters.

Yes true. I think if DB keeps dunn in the team this week he must be doing something right that we dont know about.
