    Haven’t quite figured out how to post an image on this site to the size limits but photo of Kalani at the Gabba today with Clarry and Trac.

    Looks easily 200cm already.

    I do like how broad his shoulders are (hoping that’s ok to say about a 16yo kid)

    Is it possible that we recruited Grundy as a favour to Jeff White, just so he knew that his kid would have the most impossibly high-level ruck mentors in the history of ruck mentors?

    I wonder if the AFL will change the father-son rules to make it more difficult for us?

    You can just see it happening ... right when we are about to get our fair return (Yze, Brown, White etc) ... lets just hope Geelong have something in the pipes at around the same time to ensure it remains.

    Only if you're a neghead with a victim mentality and a persecution complex.

    This is a great time to be a Melbourne supporter.  Enjoy the ride.

    Pretty sure he has a daughter

    On the mystery childrens' thread, does one of the all-time ultimate Demons (David the Ox) have a budding, footballing son?

    I’m almost certain Neita has 2 girls. Look out AFLW. 
     

    I personally can’t wait for JVR to present his old jumper back to Mini Jones in 16 years 😂

    Yes, young Cooper who's 19 years of age.

    Unfortunately he's gone down the basketball track as he is pretty handy player at this.

    Thanks, Dazzle. I had heard of this before - but time plays tricks on recall/memory. At least he is pursuing something that he has an interest in  - and is probably very good at as well.

    2025 draft says Jeff White

    Great photo! Glad to see that Jeff White's sons love the Mighty Demons! :lol:

    No point putting any pressure on this young fella in Kalani.

    He has plenty of time on his side.

    I am sure he is still growing taller too!

    I wish Kalani all the best for the future. ☺️

    Went to watch Grandson play today in a under 17 praccy game for Mt Gravatt against Broadbeach and didn't realise that Kalani was playing until I saw him and Jeff after the game. He did not dominate however he looks like a lad that could develop into a very good player. Some nice grabs and goals. He towers over his old man but needs some filling out. Chatted briefly with Jeff after game and despite our loss Friday he reckons we will go OK. Love the confidence.

    Funny weekend as met another White yesterday at Granddaughters basketball but this time a ex Lions player who in my view was a great player in Darryl.

    That's what @Jaded No More said. Never heard anything about this before

    You'd think the commentators would bring it up in a game! 😉

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
