dazzledavey36 56,370 Posted June 9, 2019 Author Posted June 9, 2019 Just watched him play against collingwood. 21 disposals 3 goals 5 tackles and 6 clearances. Hugely impressed by his game today and if he keeps playing like that he will play senior footy very soon. 9 1 Quote

buck_nekkid 6,103 Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 The commentators were saying he was the steal of the draft. Others were recycled, trimmed from other lists. Kyle is a fresh up and comer. Quote

Mt. Dee-Maaan 608 Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 i wonder where he’ll play and what position? take baker’s spot i guess? Quote
JTR 2,910 Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 For those who have seen him play for Casey, what can we expect? Quote
Vagg 2,449 Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 How neat is that?! The coach doesn't tell Kyle directly, but does it via his brother!! That's nice! (Just a pity we're not playing the Doggies this weekend!) Will he maybe come in as Smith's replacement? 1 Quote
poita 3,945 Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Good luck Kyle, just do your bit and you'll be fine. 1 Quote
ding 5,126 Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) Gotta be happy with this. In a season that has been an absolute tragedy for MFC, this is a genuine highlight. I really like how the club got his brother to tell him he is playing his first senior match. Even better for that fact his brother plays for another club. Family is everything, and this warms the heart. For once, well done MFC, well bloody done. No pressure Kyle, but i expect a rising star nomination this round. Edited July 5, 2019 by ding 1 Quote
