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.

    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 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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
