I hate to say I told you so but...

I told you so.

Dunn is in our best 22 and should have never been dropped. Whenever Dunn plays he hits the scoreboard. Another 2 goals today and named in the best. All of those people who think he had nothing to offer this club take a good hard look at yourself (90% of ppl on this site). If you can't see the obvious talent that Dunn has then I'm worried about you. He would be a 45-50 goal a year forward.

    I never realised how hard it is to type when you are laughing hysterically...

    Whether or not Dunn continues his decent form of late, you have been wrong about so much, for so long that a thread like this is so undeserved it's bordering on narcissistic perversion.

    Newton can become a good AFL player...

    Jack Grimes has a fundamental flaw in his kicking...

    Anyone else have anymore gems from Freak?

    Well guess how tall Dunn is...

    I always think Lynden Dunn is always trying to be creative, when it comes off its great. Conversly sometimes it doesn't

    But i think he will improve next year big time.

    When you do an "I told you so" It's best reserved for when someone does a Sylvia, and kicks four goals, gets 35+ touches... Monsters a game.

    Dunn was barely in our best. It was a good-serviceable game.

    Oh, and you're wrong about the "never should have been dropped." He was, for large chunks of the year, nowhere near in our best 22. If he'd made the side it would have been unfair to better performed players playing a similar role.

    Oh. And when he does the same against a football side... not the local grandma's sewing circle that turned up yesterday, then we'll take notice.

    You told us Freak, over and over, but he proved only so much yesterday. Calm down.

    ....Its just like Newton has no flaws... and forward defensive pressure is overrated.

    Freak must have been typing it one handed. :rolleyes:

    Dunn proved yesterday that he is a good VFL player.

    I'm going to attempt to take this seriously. Going forward I see our forward structure being something like:

    FF: Wona Watts Jetta

    HFF: Sylvia Miller Jurrah

    Obviously the aim is to get our midfielders to also rotate through the area, guys like Green, Grimes, Blease and the new guys.

    I just can't see a spot for him when we're serious about winning games, perhaps Jetta but I love the pressure he provides. Even so I'd prefer Davey taking Jetta's place, not Dunn.

    Dunn has perhaps bought himself another couple of years with his recent performances but he is still only a depth player.

    Would love for him to prove me wrong though

    Dunn is rubbish. Still has never had a really good game.

    He is just in our 22 now when we are tanking but come next year, as soon as we have a healthy list and a few more young talented players he wont be a starting 22 player. Just not good enough unfortunately, Shame we wasted such a high pick on him.

    Hopefully you are the recruiting manager at one of the 15 other clubs as all Dunn did yesterday was create some trade value. Is not a best 22 player.

    Dunn's a bit of an average player, but I'd have him ahead of Miller in that forwardline. I just wonder if his time is up? He was hapless yesterday.

    Oh, snap.

    Check mate.

    Game over.

    Oh, remembered another - Morton can't kick as well as Palmer and we should grabbed him instead at Pick 4.

    Thats my personal favourite.

    Petterd will be in the midfield hopefully, down back and forward.

    Despite Freak bringing it up, he makes a good point. Dunn has shown good form since he came back to the team. I've been quite happy with him.

    Much better than Newton.

    I heard Grimes is playing in Albury next week.

    Dropped for his fundamentally flawed kicking action which has seen him have such a poor second season.

    As if we wasted pick 14 on this dud.

    He is hopeless, seriously, his kicking action is so flawed he nearly bloody won us the game yesterday and made us lose Scully. Get rid of him! :wub:

    How about that 45 metre pass to Cheney along the boundary that never went higher than 4 metres, hitting him dead on the chest?

    Shocking.

    Technically it was a shank. He meant to centre the ball :lol:

    Interesting, because I'm pretty sure McMahon was trying to put it on the full.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
