Think I might have to watch the GF again to see how good this guy is…

But seriously, how [censored] will it be for those two to walk past the cup everyday.

Am hearing Lachlan Hunter will be a Dee. 

All wise and powerful one, how do you keep on doing it time and again?

I continue to be mesmerised by your innate abilities 😁

And there was Martin Pike, who made good with the BB'S...

One of the few players I rue us trading away, the hardness we missed through the late 90s and beyond.  yes there were non footy reason.

Lots underrating Jimmer Jordon here. He'd be ahead of both Harmes & Sparrow in the pecking order I reckon.

Hunter will also stay on the field all day like Langers, allowing our key burst players to get the rest they need during the game. That in itself is such a bonus when you look at how poor our fitness was this year.

The other benefit to this is we're potentially not so reliant on Langdon's wing, which teams tried to clamp down on this season. Two wingers that can run all day and cause some damage. That's a big win.

Didn't want him at the start purely because of his serious off field matters. Really hope we've done our due diligence here which I trust we have.

On a playing perspective, he was easily one one the best wingers in the club only a few years.

He was one player that would worry me the most because he was such a big accumulator and would punish us with his outside run. 

His inclusion means James Jordon goes back into his natural position of inside mid. He's far better valued there then Tom Sparrow imo with his inside and outside work.

Didn’t Stengel have issues before going to Geelong and look how that turned out. 

Let’s hope we get the same result with Hunter. 

I said that about 2 weeks ago when Lachie's name came up. Has something to prove to plenty of new people now.

Angus is just now putting the stamp on Lachie's invitation envelope to the Wingers Club next meeting at Lingers Bohemian Pad in Fitzroy!

Also To the outdated D/Lers NO Tmac is not getting any Wingers Club invites. His time has run out and he never was a true winger, cameos don't count.

Jeezuz he can run all day, take a mark and is an excellent kick to boot, Tim might have done alright with this one. Just need to get him in with the boys and get his head straight and look out in 2023. I trust our FD to get Lachie firmly into the fold.🙏💕

He will respect Gawn and our culture, he's seen how dominate our best looks like up close and personal, he's here to win premierships.

All false bravado down at the dogs, he's obviously had some issues with Bevo, he comes under no false pretences.

Stating the obviously he is a hard working skillful, damaging left footer, the perfect compliment to Langers on the other wing 

He'll be playing for a coach that has his respect and I'm sure Lachie will reciprocate with performances, head down, bum up proving the doubters wrong.

Haha just seconds before half time he missed a pretty easy shot on goal. Probably saved us.

Here's some highlights of Lachie Hunter.

As long as he is over his personal issues, I think he will be a valuable contributor to the Demons.

I'm sure he'll look a lot better and in a Melbourne Demons jumper too! 😉

Lachie Hunter had a few good highlights from his 2021 season with the Bulldogs as well.

He is definitely a goal kicking wingman who is pretty good kick inside the forward 50.

We can easily play him on the opposite wing to Ed Langdon or even on a half forward flank.

Our forwards will be licking their lips after watching his highlights. Beautiful, accurate, left foot weapon.

Very happy with Hunter. Smart player who is always in the right place on the outside to get used. Thought in 2020 when we were all bees to the honey pot he was exactly the player we needed. Will be a great partner for Langdon. To get him for a F3 only is a fantastic deal.

That was mainly him kicking goals from a pocket. We don’t kick goals from a pocket, we kick to a pocket in an attempt to not kick goals.

Would have been better to see some kicks along the wing from him but you watch what your given.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
