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.

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    Also To the outdated D/Lers NO Tmac is not getting any Wingers Club invites.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

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
