Luke Dunstan

Solid build, makes good decisions, seems to hit guys lace out and takes the game on. His highlights were impressive.

I liked the vision of him. Good disposal but is he slow?

I'd thought this too, watching the footage


I wouldn't pretend to know much about this crop but this guy looks solid and hard to knock over. A well rounded player and of the type Roos will like.

Depends on whether the guys are happy that we have collected enough grunt.

Dunstan is like Mitchell, Hodge, Hannebery, Bartel. All considered slow but somehow they always seem to get the footy. Dunstan is in the mix at pick 9 but I prefer Freeman, Lennon & Bontempelli.

Dunstan is tough, skilled, tackles and not quick but not slow. He lacks burst pace but wins the footy. Good mates with Jimmy Toumpas. Sometimes the footballers get overlooked for the athletes!!!

Let's hope Trengove can be added to that list.

He is.

He's maybe not as bad as I've made out, but he's bloody Brock McLean reincarnate.

No thankyou.

Been pumping his tyers up all year but jeez i would love him in our side. Absolute solid unit in the same mould as Wines. Whoever drafts him will be a massive steal and should atleast play 16 games next year.

Any chance at all he could sneak down to pick 40?


I was less keen having seen the video, but yeah, it's not enough to go on. You can certainly see a really solid player, but with a top 10 pick you'd hope for the chance at a star, but I see nothing elite in his game to elevate himself to that category.

I don't remember him moving and kicking so similarly to Matty Bate. He seems to have more nous though.

Dear All. Read these posts ... pick 18 St.kilda gets Luke Dunstan.

We called it. Mature body. Gets the footy. Uses it well. Likes it tough.

(slow ... humbug).

Christian Salem might need a year in the gym to even be ready for AFL.

Seriously? Salem vs Dunstan... if we had taken dunstan at pick 9 demonland would have gone into meltdown.

Salem was picked for our future. Dunstan is ready now, but hasn't the upside of Salem, IMO

today our tall structure was off. we need to get our experienced talls into the game.

f the future. We been drafting for the future for 7 years. lets draft for now for once.

Inside hardness is not what we lacked today, but polished foot disposal. Even though we lost the clearances, our biggest problem was overuse of the handball and not long and direct football.

We were so handball happy, we could have done with a kick first, kick second mindset player in the team tonight. A ready Salem would have helped a fair bit tonight with his good kicking skills.

Go return into the ground and have a rest Norm, :)

we have drafted for now, - vince cross, tyson, michie, georgiou...

but you have to have a balanced focus for now & the future. we've done that.

we were light on for talls going in tonight.

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
