Our game plan works if everyone is on. Unfortunately with the pre season we have had and injuries endured that was never going to happen.

I dare say we will see it in a game/s before the end of the year and we will literally [censored] someone.

 

Spot on.

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.

yeah he was good wasn't he. he just looks one of those players who seems to do everything right.

 

By all account s he played a cracker for Casey today.

Hope he can, at an appropriate time, take the next step.

Well done.

is it true he's still only 18?

No, he's 93, his birth certificate was FORGED.

So is he actually Andrew Dunkley's father (or perhaps grandfather) and not his son?

Wordsworth's poem has always confused me but this may be the explanation?

My Heart Leaps Up When I Behold - William Wordsworth (1802)

My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.

Ah, Mono you have restored my faith in Demonland, poetry and class. Thank you.

dieter, I had anticipated that Hemmingway would have beaten me to the punch.

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.

No offence to the Dunkley, but the old man sounds like a over possessive Fl og

Fancy giving your kids a serve and then demand them to go do a beep test because you didn't perform on game day. 

What a [censored]

Didn't he have a sook about Roosy forcing him into retirement because he was already 34 and was in and out of the 2s?

I have to say I had similar thoughts.

My son play rep basketball tonIf it. If he he plays crap I might him do a beep test when we get home at 11. Unlike Andrew though I won't join in


Good Luck Kyle. I have you star.

i wonder where he’ll play and what position? take baker’s spot i guess?


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?

 

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.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
