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

    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.

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

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

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

    Good luck to him

    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.

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

    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.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
