2014 Player Review - # 14 Lynden Dunn

Featured Replies

Posted

His ninth AFL season was his finest, as he became one of the top defenders in the competition. Dunn was a highly consistent performer across 2014 and he was duly rewarded with his best result in a Melbourne best and fairest count.

Took a massive step for this year Dunn. Probably slowed off bit towards the end but he was fantastic this year.

Another Roos special.

Agree - fell away towards the end, but was consistently outstanding before that. The polling in the B&F agreed.

I've never had such a complete and thorough reversal of opinion of a player in all my life supporting this team. Let's hope he's able to continue - in my mind he's gone from one of the worst players ever to play 100 games for the MFC to setting on the path to be a well respected 200 game player. Well done Dunny.

 

Really liked the way he went about it this year, hopefully he gets better next year!

Have always been a fan since he tore Hawthorn a new one as a forward in 06.

Very happy to see him settled into a key position role. Touch wood, but he seems durable and dependable. Never going to be a star, but just an honest goer.


Was very good this year. Hopefully he can maintain his focus and consistency going forward, because there has been a tendency for him to get a little ahead of himself in the past.

Stop living in the past.

 

Well Dunn

Signed contract, fell away. Melbourne story in miniature.

Nah, just joking. I was surprised and very happy to eat humble pie over this fella. I had him as a list clogger that was only doing enough to hold his spot because others needed culling first, but he looks like a real and substantial AFL player for the first time ever.

Credit to him for doing the hard work, and to those that knew how to show him the way.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
