Have said my piece on what I think of Dunn as a player a number of times, so I'll let that particular sleeping dog lie. For this year, I expect he'll play most of the year out at Casey before being delisted at the end of it.

Said the same thing 2 years ago and he managed to save his career that time, he's definately up against it this time.

Melbourne players have a knack for finding form in the last year of a contract, half our list is ooc at years end so we might just win the flag this year.

So you would have sacked Jeff Farmer, David Neitz, Brad Green, Robbo, Garry Lyon, ect ect ect. Rubbish Comment.

The difference is most of these players converted. Everyone did it in Lyon and Neitz day so its stupid to compare whereas Farmer actually kicked the goals unlike your love child. Robbo only played as many games late in his career because of our terrible list and was moved on because of this reason. Selfish acts. Look forward to talking to you at the end of the year Bossdog. Will be fun

I tell you what DL7 If Dunn is cut at the END of the year I will buy you a beer (or drink you choose) If he is still on our list I will accept one in return. Done deal????

Gotta cut somebody.

Before you agree to that, have a look at the list, try and figure out who is contracted, and have a think about whether Dunn, with full free agent rights would want to come back even if he is wanted.

Heh, he isn't issuing you a challenge, he's giving you a big fat out clause. You'd do well to take it up.

Please have a think about it.

I'm trying to save you a beer here.

It's important.

Yep, really dumb tonight. If he gets the ball his decision making and skills are OK, but he runs around alot doing nothing. Shocker tonight.

Ticket stamped today for mine. He is a liability, refuses to play in front and plays dumb football. If he is seen much for the rest of the year will be very surprised.

Thought the same on all of your points. Would have to be the worst first round draft pick we have picked up on our current list.

5 goal haul against Richmond (2010) his only highlight

IMO wont be on our list next year

Really expected better from a high draft pick

Agree. Ticket was stamped already from my side. Did not need any confirmation. Definitely gone at year end

Yeah, yesterday was awful.....

I've never been one to criticise our boys too much nor speculate on their worth and futures, but honestly Dunn must be out come years end.

He was good in under 1/2 a game this weekend as sub. Garlo was good up forward & Frawley's said he'd love a go up forward too. Dunn's pretty physically solid, 192cm 95kg & would be great kicking out after a behind, so I wonder if it wouldn't be worth trying him in defence once for a change, just in case? Has anyone seen him there before?

Can't answer your question but not the worst idea I've heard. For mine his career is in the balance.

At 195KG he should be moved to Japan for the Sumo season.

Carries it well though.

Someone told me he got 7 tackles as a sub? That's not bad. Howcome he can't do that every week? I reckon he's ideal trade bait. Will never take an overhead mark in his life. But with that kick... you always have a value.

Tackle stat is a lot to do with luck aswell, he is always applying pressure and chasing but sometime you are just half a second off, 7 tackles is a very old effort in a half, but I think that for Dunn the pressure acts are what he is best at

His value will be determined by the metrics used by the AFL when they give us a pick when he leaves as a FA.

I would say a 4th round or 5th round pick.

A 4th or 5th round pick would be generous.

I think this idea has merit as you say "just in case"

Yes, "just in case". How'd it be if we de-listed him, then discovered he's a great defender? It seems his body should be better overhead than it is & hopefully he'd improve that, but he'd be the most booming kick out from the square we've got & he's pretty solid & tough isn't he?

    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
