Quite a pleasant surprise to see Lynden Dunn in this Tik-Tok video.

 

Great to see him wearing a Demons scarf!

He did play 165 games for the Melbourne Football Club after all!

Was a bit of a cheeky comment by Lynden to that Jordan bloke from Melbourne Fan TV but having said that I wouldn't be able to be runner at the club either. 😂😅🤣

  • Supreme_Demon changed the title to Lynden Dunn back supporting the Demons!
 

Not sure how amical the parting was with the Dees but Lynden Dunn is a good sort. I'm sure he barracks for the Dees

 

He celebrated big time when Colll beat us in the final game of 2017 and stopped us making finals.

Will he barrack for us vs Coll in a final?  Or was that little video just for show?

He was playing in that game. 

I'm going to give him a pass on that one even though it hurt at the time.

Wouldn't you allow him to support both clubs?

I know he played in that game.  His OTT celebration had an element of 'up yours' about it which to me was in poor taste.  Howe was similar.

In the video he claimed to be 'back at Melbourne now'.  Sure he can support both clubs but my (rhetorical) question was who he would support in a final. That is when we would know if he is one of us.

Well we perhaps will know the answer to  Who he supports most,  in the next couple of weeks, blue collar work man for our club, and given a short straw in my opinion,  Never the very best but rarely the worst either.  I would have loved to play 10% as well as he could.    Take all the support we can,   Go Dees B2B, we are in this up to our necks,  it is just so even.

Really stuck it up us that day. Little difficult to forget but we move on I guess. 

I think we can all tolerate Dunny coming back to the club as a supporter but we need to draw the line if Jeremy Howe gets onto the 2026 MFC bandwagon.

I mean, of course Dunny jumps on the bandwagon when we're good again.

He should have been reminded of these comment back in 2019..

i mean can you blame him, we were a basketcase... there wasn't a soul in footballer who wanted to be associated with us

Duxy LOVES it. He’ll tell you he hates all the attention but he soaks it up, good AND bad. 😁

He's a good man Duxy.. always say g'day to him if I see him at the footy when i get a chance. Not that he knows who I am......

He’s the butt of many jokes and he’s a good sport about it. But he does have a serious side. And he’s great for a chat. We both love the cricket so we talk about that all the time. Oh, and about the Dees occasionally. 😁

After all his input, hard work, effort, widespread player encouragement and other desirable features in his career with the Dees, who could deny him the sunset reward of some success at the Filth? He was a sturdy rock in our defence and that, from a player who was no champion - just a hard-working and battling team member - his performances over time were highly commendable.

It wasnt Collingwood that stopped us.....we did.

We were well in front of the Lions the round before building up vital % that would of made it too hard for the eagles to catch us in r23 . Then Melbourne stopped and useless  Wagner under no pressure kicked the ball straight  to a lions player and the run was on. Lions piled on the goals, we still won but we blew our % gap against the eagles. 

Melbourne naturally lost to Collingwood . Eagles needed to beat injury hit Crows by 29 points from memory. They did exactly that! They pushed us out of the finals by 0.5%.

We missed finals in 2017 because we Melbourned the last 15 minutes against the lions thanks to Wagner (delisted).

I'll never forget watching the West Coast V Adelaide game with the live ladder changing after each goal. 

Charlie Cameron kicked a goal for Adelaide at the 20 minute mark of the last quarter to put us into the finals.....only for the Eagles to kick 2 late ones and we were back out.

I always thought that it was the Eagles that ran way with it after 3 qtr time, but it was actually Adelaide that won the last quarter.

Pure torture and you rightly point out that we blew it against Brisbane more so than the rd 23 game against Collingwood. Buckley had just re-signed before round 23 and the shackles were off for the under achieving Pies that year.

Perhaps that was directed at Demonlanders after all of the rubbishing he used to cop here week in and week out?

Yes Hardtack,  I think Dunny was under-appreciated at MFC and DL and had every right to tell us where to stick it after working his heart out to be a good FB for us (and our defense was considered good then) then his last year or so, when we were a basket case and our defense was considered crap, MFC wouldn't even give Dunny a game, so he went to Collingwood and became their best full back. 

Heartwarming to see him back supporting us again.

Trying to get font smaller

Dunn was the best one-on-one backman we had in those days but could not play zone defence or any other fancy model.

He was badly treated but at least he managed a few more games at AFL level.

Welcome back.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
