We now have 24 players who played in the 2021 Grand Final on our list. We had 23 on the day the game was played.

Hunt is AFL standard. He played 40 games over past 2 seasons in a side that finished 1st and 2nd after the H&A.

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Also To the outdated D/Lers NO Tmac is not getting any Wingers Club invites.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.

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! 😉

 

 

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

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.

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.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
