Just saw Lynden Dunn running on the beach in Surfers Paradise.

He is looking very fit and seems to put on a bit of muscle. A good sign for '07

I love these little chestnuts, good on you Elliot.

If anyone sees any more players out and about don't be afraid of approaching them and finding stuff out. I always find they're as approachable as you can imagine a person being and willing to talk in detail about the club.

After all, this kind of stuff is the only joy we get for the next few months...

I saw Ashley Hansen before... not much to report there, except that he was having a sook (surprise surprise) to his mummy :lol:

Exciting chestnut, demon_magik? :wacko:

In just four weeks since end of season? I'll look at him in February and assess there.

Gawd, every post you're simply bagging out another member of the forums.

Me thinks Rhino is a very insecure person

Not at all. Merely questioned how much muscle you can put on in four weeks.

You seem to miss the irony in many of your comments YM dont you?

Maybe he put it on during the season as well. You might remember we didn't see him in a Demons jumper for the last 2 months of the season.

Also saw him in the Supermarket with his young girlfriend. He was shopping without a top (just boardshorts). All Class!

I saw that old 80's StKilda hack Michael Roberts out on the weekend.

Looks like hes stacked on a few pounds.Was standing around like peacock,desperately trying to be noticed.

Think he was trying to relive the Moorabin Disco days....very sad! :lol:

Considering his last game of the season was against Sydney in round 19, it's been more like 9 weeks since we've seen him. With an increase in gym time, which I would assume would be a directive from the club and a little less on the endurance side of things, I wouldn't be surprised if he's put on a few Kg's of muscle since he last played.

He would have been training with the Seniors all the way up to the end of the finals. Do you go to training at all? I would find it very hard to believe that he was put on a different training program at Round 19 when we were aiming at the finals.

However since end of season and allowing for at least week or so off for a break, it is too short a timespan to have any significant body development through weights. And if he did not have a defined break i would be further concerned about the stresses on an 18/19 yo body.

I think it is good sense that Club do undertake a strategy to build his physique to cope with AFl standards but do so in a responsible and professional manner.

I'm just glad the post didn't read...

Just saw Lynden Dunn in a club in Sufers Paradise. He was trying not too make body contact with anyone just in case he got hurt...

Nah that was mean. Glad Dunny is looking after himself and looking forward to seeing his career develop in 2007.

I must admit that I may be wrong and he may be as skinny as ever. When he was running on the beach he looked very toned. As I am not a raving homosexual I do not notice men's muscle with all too much detail, however I though he had put on some muscle since his debut. I can say with good authority that his girlfriend was about a 6.5 or 7 and looked young enough to be Neita's daughter.

My point regarding him not being in the senior team since round 19 would mean that it's been that long since a number of supporters would have seen him rather than the 4 weeks you stated in your first post. I am well aware of the fact that he would have been training with the senior list up until the end of the season.

I saw young rookie Danny Hughes with his arm in a sling trying very unsuccessfully to pick up last thursday night at Half Moon in Brighton. Keep trying kid, you'll get one sooner or later! He was also having a yarn with Chris Judd moments earlier.

Half Moon is one of the most footballer-infested places on earth.

But let me get this straight, Chris Judd was there, and yet you feel the need to tell us about Danny Hughes? :o:lol:

I have made it my mission that if I ever meet Judd (sadly, I only ever meet really dud footballers), I will definitely buy him enough drinks to make him talk honestly about a possible return to Melbourne ;)

Saw Godders on Sunday doing a good job of staying upright considering he was on crutches and with cast on his lower right arm.

Seeing Chris Judd out in public is like seeing Jesus Christ himself descend from the heavens and mingle among us mere mortals

Only J. Christ doesnt quite have the same aura as Chris Judd

Not as gifted either.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
