I read an article last week where he was tipped to go at number 1. Son of Sydney Champion, Andrew Dunkley. Welcome Kyle.

Can he kick?

Yes and with both feet. He’s just not accurate.

Hmm...Welcome to Demonland....

 

Who is this new poster, Kyle? 

Whats his profile picture? 

Can he go toe to toe with the likes of DV8? 

Would he decipher the rambling rantings of Picket Fence? 

Could he give Uncle Bitters a metaphoric, linguistic sponge bath? 

...so many questions!!!

Assume he's like his brother which would be an inside, tough, accumulator.

Doesn't exactly address our lack of run on the outside or someone who can use the ball.

Either way, guess it's depth and a younger upgrade on Maynard.

Another inside mid....ummmm.....we kind of have that position well covered already!

 

That said welcome and good luck Kyle

Dimensions?

He also plays half-forward and kicked 3 goals on the weekend. Stop the whinging ffs. 

His dad didn't look too happy...very slow and low key in congratulating his son.  Maybe they were hoping he would slip thru to Sydney.

Last year’s draft stats had him at 185cm and 84kg.

Surely you’d just be happy that your son got selected by an AFL Club and is now living dream? 

Anyone have his 20 metre sprint time?

Of course I would.  Just saying his dad didn't look too excited.

Yeaaa .... his old man, he’s one of us know, when can we start sledging him for his skills?

That half-forward role is pretty much there for the taking...

Good luck to him

One thing we do need is someone who can boot a goal!!!

Just watched the hilte reel, kind looks like a young Bob Murphy 

What are his foot skills like and has he got any pace???? If not it’s just going down the same recruiting old path.

A very brief highlight package is up on the MFC site. Looks to have good skills and ability around in the contest.

I hate to be that guy but he does look slow in the short bit of footage.

Put him on the plane to Alice. That's as good goal kicking form as anyone on the list

looks like the club played it safe taking Dunkley, he looks a solid sort of player. I sort of wish they took a risk though and chose someone with a bit of flair about them. but anyway, hopefully he can kick to a team mates advantage, if he can, I say put him straight in, as not many of our other guys can.

That’s what I was saying sorry, surely his Dad should be looking excited and happy for his son.

Swans made enquires into drafting his as a priority in the mid-season draft but were turned down.

For mine speed and overlap run overwhelming priority for Dees. 

Having said that welcome Kyle and you might be in the Dees 22 soon.
