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.

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?

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.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
