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?

Yeah, I have a pearler.

"190-192 centimetre players are useless in the AFL."

Well guess how tall Dunn is...

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.

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.

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:

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
