Poor bloke. That's probably curtains on his career.

 

poor bloke. only wish good things for Dunny


Bad luck for him.  Collingwood getting overconfident with knees maybe because Goldsack came back so quickly?  Happy for Lever to take 12 months to get back.  Even 13 months if needed

 

Devastated for him! Really bad luck. 

Wish him all the best. 

 

(Also this is why you never rush knees. Lever can take another 4 months if it means he never does it again!)


Have a real soft spot for him and wish him all the best. I remember my son coming across him at various venues and unlike many of his teammates at the time who were very aloof he was always friendly and willing to have a chat. A genuinely good guy who deserves better.

Fingers crossed for him. My favourite pie by a street (behind steak and mushroom)

Dunny could play and was reliable but l guess that our FD thought he wasn't good enough to fit into the side. However in a short space of time became a fixture in the backline for C/wood reliable and a was respected as a person and player and in time was voted in their Leadership group.

Devastated for what seems like the end of the road of his playing career. Loved him at Melbourne and didn't have a hate for him playing for the enemy . In the future l wouldn't be surprised if Lynden was picked up as an assistant coach and if there is a chance to get him,  perhaps his leadership values and toughness would rub on the guys.

Dunny in my eyes your a Demon for life. 


At times we get seduced by the glamour of AFL footy, but these incidents highlight the ever present risk of season ending injury, and, perhaps in Lyndon's case, career ending injuries. There is always the risk like the devil lurking in the shadows, of fate intervening to take you down a path that no one wants to take. 

Lyndon's career has been one of persistence and determination. It's good that he finished his playing career (if indeed he has) playing good footy in a good team. 

His development and growth as a person should hold him in good stead for an opportunity in the non-playing footy world. 

He's on 196 games which also happens to be the clubhouse leader for current players not having played a final. (It's also the sixth highest of all time). Nevertheless, should this be the end, he should be proud of the fact that he played so many games. What's most impressive to me, though, is that he appears to have already mapped out what his post-playing career might look like with his experience as an assistant coach in the AFLW.  

Sorry for him. Just as I was sorry to see him leave the Dees. Had a real weapon with that penetrating kicking. Best of luck, Dunny.

Me too PM, whilst he wasn't my favourite demon especially the first half of his career, he got better in our back half and grew something of a reputation.   Happy for him to do well at the Pies, except against us,...

But i am very sorry for this injury to him,  now twice in 12 months. that's very sad. 

Get well, and get strong Dunny.

.

Always loved him. It was just great to yell out Dunnneee!! at the G. Best wishes to him.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
