Jayden Hunt my kids love him

thankyou - Jayden Hunt - it has been tough over the last 10 years to get your kids to love the Demons. 

Then along comes Jayden Hunt and the are now passionate Demons 100% on-board. 

Who do your kids love? 

 

Daisy Pearce - my girls got a personalised autographed picture from her wishing them luck with their footy careers! 

I've indoctrinated my two year old to nod and smile when I ask her if she loves Melbourne, and to shake her head vigorously when I ask her if she loves St. Kilda, who my wife supports. 

That's good enough for me at the moment! 

 

My Daughter (13) has long been a Nathan Jones but is also rapt with Daisy these days. The 20 yr old Son is a big Max Gawn trajic and I am completely torn between my love of Jayden Hunt's speed, Oliver's handballing and nifty Nev Jetta for just being Nev.

My three year old loves number 5 and the "truck"

 

hopefully he kicks a bag today

Jayden Hunt is our point of difference. If we make finals and he can cut loose, look out.

I force my 4 year old boy to love the Demons.

If he doesn't, I don't feed him.

Believe me, it works.

The names 'Petracca' and 'Jetta' are addictive to little humans.

we are pioneers of the women's game. My daughter rates Daisy along with Father Christmas, thecEaster bunny and tooth fairy.

Jack & Daisy must be doing a great job and you must be one awesome dad with his priorities in the right place

Yeah my 4 year old loves Petracca - he also loves Dangerfield 

Great story! Love how we've got someone the kids can look up to. Hopefully he can deliver for them for years to come!

I was really impressed with how he lowered his eyes yesterday against St Kilda. He was hitting up the right target inside 50 where as previously he was pumping the ball long to 50/50 (or less) contests. I am not sure where he will end up however with his speed and improving composure he could become the 'outside' class that we are looking for to balance our midfield mix.

He was a lot better yesterday. It was the first time he didn't just bomb it long over and over. He was spotting up shorter passes to guys inside 50 which converted to scoring shots instead of 50/50 contests. If he keeps that up then he'll become an All Australian standard HBF or wingman.

Absolutely mate!

I must admit though that I'm as restrained as I can be - they have had the wood over us for a long time and her family has been pretty good about it, so I don't go too over the top.  I did watch the highlights with my daughter a few times and we had a few fist bumps and 'Go Dees' being said, so I'm pretty happy with that!

Apart from his obvious talents, I just love the kids confidence.

Beautiful to watch when he makes a run.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    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.
