Kynan Brown put in a mammoth performance yesterday in their wildcard round against Northern Knights.

25 disposals, 5 tackles, 4 marks and kicked 5.2 for the day.

We have a beauty on our hands I reckon.

    IMO this kid has been grossly underrated, both here and in general draft discussion.  I was nervously hoping it would remain that way.

    Slow down KB!

    That's an impressive stat line at any level. Playing in the best underage comp in the country and this kids improvement is amazing over this season.

    The Guns  have taken a big leap as well

    A very impressive effort!

    His Father Nathan D. Brown would be incredibly proud!

    Well done Kynan Brown!

    Let's hope the Demons pick him up in this year's AFL National Draft as a Father-Son selection!

    Incredible.

    Who do we think he can replace long term in our side?

    How's his general field kicking? If he nails enough targets then on top of the other upside that's good enough for me.

    I thought he was too small but I guess there's plenty of successful small midfielders around - he's already taller than Lachie Neale and Brent Harvey.

    .....and Jack Viney 😉

    is one of the reasons he's not being 'talked up' - despite this sort of performance and being declared vic metro mvp at the national championships - because he was an 'overager' in the underage competition this year?

    Actually, he’s not overage at all although he was born in January so he’s older than many in that age group.

    Date of birth: 13/1/2005.

    Late developer which is preferred by many recruiters.

    Gets some good mentions on Rookie me scouting notes. Easy to google.

    One game noted " eye catching acceleration after sharking hitouts" 

    On another note from a different game a couple of weeks ago " Brown has a turn of speed, shared the ball and has had phenomenal numbers in the last handfull of games".

    I was searching for opinions on his 'speed'. Seems to be ok. 

    In his last hitout against Eastern he performed just as well if not better than the 'wizard' Watson.

    Kynan has really stepped up in the U18's after his stint with Casey.

    Scouting notes say he is a hard worker.

    Twomey still thinks he will be a rookie or late pick.

    We may well be on to something here. Time will tell.

    I think he can learn from and replace Viney. Similiar left foot kick and he's as hard as anyone. Just needs the body to match, but this can come with Viney showing him how to lift.

    I like your thinking.  Will he ever be able to bench press 150kg like Jack?

    I like this. I think he’ll have the work ethic to do it as well. I’ve watched maybe 15(?) of his games over the last couple of years and he just gets better. His running is better, his kicking is better, his extraction is better. I’m keen to see him work with Max Viney on evading tackles. I’m not expecting him to play year 1 or 2 and be a regular contributor. But you can see that he is an afl player and is going to put pressure on selection.

    Agree he is getting better as time goes by. Recruiters like those sorts of young players. If we are to extend our 'window' we need quality players coming through even if it takes 2 or 3 years for them to become regulars.

    We need to nail this draft. Kalini White coming in a few drafts time.

    Late draft pick or rookie pick. 
     

    We had to keep him under wraps but he got excited towards the end of the year. 
     

    Kynan will be on our list next year. Lots of physical development and skills work. But he’s got the heart of a lion.

    Who's next in line for F/S consideration?

    Yze jnr? White jnr?

    Some reports on their likelyhood would be much appreciated

    White in 2 years, he's in the U16s now. Will be a hybrid ruck/forward. Young Yze would be lucky to be rookied.

    Does anyone know what's happening with Kynan. I gather up till now he hasn't nominated the Dees and the Dees haven't done whatever they have to do if he does. Does anyone know the cutoff date for father/son nominations. 

    Does anyone also know whether if he nominates us and we accept that nomination or whatever the process is do we have to take him in the draft or can we leave it to the Rookie draft and if we do that can we still access him as a father son or just take the gamble he'll still be there at our pick.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
