WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DOM TYSON

Featured Replies

Emma Quale I believe said the other day that we were into Kade Kolodjashnij....he would be one player in line for pick 9

Edited by Bingo

 

I stand to be corrected but Dom went to Trinity Grammar in Kew and the whole family are Demon Supporters.

If so that has to be a real plus+++

Thought they were Richmond?

 

Obviously any player's highlight reel will make them look good but gee Tyson looks a smooth mover, taking into account these are AFL level highlights too, not tac cup. Slides through traffic, has time and uses it well. Looks to have a hard edge as well. Kicking action and execution much like Hodge IMO.

Thrilled with this.


Has David Myers passed on us? If not, how do we get him? 190cm+ and kicks goals from everywhere.

Jeremy Howe is going to be a talent without a role soon I suspect. Can he become the tall midfielder?

If he doesn't become a tall mid - he is going to have to learn to play forward both tall AND small with the timber we have up there now.

I'm hoping Roos can turn him into a Ryan O'keefe MkII

Tyson, Michie and Viney all Oakleigh Chargers boys.

Do not forget Watts is going into the Mid field as a tall midfielder as well

 

Is Dom

Is GOOD !!! :)^_^

This is a significant win for the MFC.

Dom Tyson is a midfielder in the new mould with a bit of height on him, plays inside and disposes the ball a hell of a lot better than most of our list.

Whilst Kelly is a very good pick 2, in a draft where midfield talent is pretty equal, pick 9 is a good acquisition.

I feel that there is a vfl player that melbourne are interested in and that pick 50 is where we will be going with this, not sure but just the feeling i have


Emma Quale I believe said the other day that we were into Kade Kolodjashnij....he would be one player in line for pick 9

If we get him (or his brother) will replace Wonna as the most mis-spelt name on Demonland.

Tyson has star written all over him.

Adams is a battler who will never really impact games. Good accumulator thats about it.

I disagree.

Carlton paid about the same price in the draft for Chris Judd in 2007 who was the best player in the comp. I understand that we get pick 9 as a sweetener but its still a big punt on an unproven kid. I was hoping if we were to trade pick 2 it would be on a proven midfielder at the least. I'm not araldited to my position and will happily eat humble pie if Tyson and pick 9 prove to be amazeballs - however I'm skeptical at this stage.

Howe should've learnt to be better at ground level by now anyway. We've tried playing him on the wing and it just doesn't suit him. I'm ok with having him stay in the fwd fifty and create another marking option. Two/three best defenders go to Hogan, Dawes and Clarke... Howe can have a field day.

Wouldn't mind a small forward coming in to the mix somewhere. Blease needs to use that opportunity imo.


In our parlous state and with FA looming over our heads it is more important to make some immediate progress in 2014 than wait for a pick 2 to develop or hope that some other club will lose its mind and give us an established mid so they can take a novice at pick 2.

I don't see much point in comparing it to past trades like Judd - situations change. I'm pretty ignorant in these matters, but it sounds wise to me.

I think the most important thing to discuss is what is his nickname going to be?

Iron Mike?

The Dominator

I have just heard a rumour from a mate closely connected to another afl club (he has a 60% track record of being right over the last 15 years) that Dom Tyson, this week's rising ster nominee, wants to come to the MFC to join former teammate JV.

Good get AD!

You can't just write off pick 9.

Carlton gave up 3, 20 and Kennedy, and got Judd. They lost a first round and second round pick, plus a player.

We gave up 2 and 20, and got Tyson and 9. We lost only a second round pick (still have a first round pick, and didn't lose any players).

Completely different.

How about Dyce.

Same with me.

Chris Cain I believe. Watch this space.

i agree in as much as every year is a year unto itself. its values are intrinsic to the draft and current state of things.

We do and indeed have to do what suits us, not anyone else's idea of that.

My old school (hated the place).

  • 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.

    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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
