  • Demonland changed the title to WELCOME TO DEMONLAND: Kye Declase

Makes sense. Our defence has been our strength, but it’s also the most susceptible if we cop another injury or two on top of Tomlinson.

 

Yes. Also played for us in the practise match v Bulldogs, where he Smith & Majak were vying for 2 spots on our list.

Big unit

So does Kye stop playing for Werribee and now play for Casey?

Yes

Yes, but it's at Werribee's discretion as to whether he plays against them if the sides play, and he returns to them for finals if he's delisted.

Is he the guy who trained with us earlier in the year. Mark Williams must know all about him

Yes he is


I don't really see it with this pick.

Clearly a talented player who's doing well at VFL level, but he looks flashy and outside, rather than the type of player who can step in as depth.

If we're to get a key defensive injury we don't need a skilled player to step in, we need someone who can contest and do a defensive job.

A former local footy forward who plays as a utility tall doesn't really fit the bill to me.

And plus his sir name has Declase, or from here on in Deeclase?

welcome to the melbourne family?

Anyone know Kye's heritage?

That set shot outside 50m was a decient roost.

That's the complete opposite from what many on here was suggesting just 6 months ago Re the sort of players we needed.  How times change.

Though, I somewhat agree that for a guy we recruited to fill a backline depth venerablility most of his highlight real is in the front half. 

 

Looks like a capable enough unit and will be interesting to see what a few more months on an AFL list can do for him - best of luck Kye.

Well you can't get past the media these days they got the picks spot on.

The highlights package of him doing a ‘defensive job’ was probably quite boring...

I am guilty of judging from the highlights but even reading between the lines of JT’s comments, he’s been flashy but inconsistent so far in his VFL career.

I like the upside and who knows what he can be with some time in the system. I’m just not convinced he’s the right type to bring in mid year. It’s really hard to come in to a club mid season, adapt to full time footy, learn a new system and then perform if you get a chance. 

Hi Declase clan. Welcome to the family.

Would love some insight into your families reaction to him being drafted and whether he knew he would be picked up.

Your boy looks a real unit. What side of the family does he get his sporting ability from?

Go Dees.

 

 

assuming this Twitter poster is on here... well done you ?

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
