Loved Dunny, even amid the novelty free kicks he would give out trying to be the hard man. Always gave his all in a basketcase of a team. Good to see him enjoy the good times with the rest of us.

    I know someone in his family, and was told he loves the Dees.

    OK, that was some years back when still playing for us, but do you think these days Brereton supports Hawthorn or Collingwood when they play.

    Same situation.

    F**k Dunn.

    I’ll never forget how happy he was when the Pies beat the Dees a few years back and it meant we missed finals. Meant nothing for the Pies. He was dancing around like he just won the GF.

    All it showed was his lack of class and lack of appreciation for the club who drafted him.

    [censored] him.

    I am sure Lynden is part of the “Balls” WhatsApp group

    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?

    Very different character to Luke Ball and the way he celebrated after Coll beat St Kilda

    I remember Brendan Goddard in his first game vs St Kilda as a Bomber. Essendon won convincingly and he was crying during a post-match on-field interview. He felt so bad. I found it endearing and decided I liked him, but that was fleeting: I remembered who he currently played for and instantly went back to hating him. Nothing personal, just comes with the territory. 😁

    He was drafted at pick number 15. It's not like we plucked him from obscurity and were the only club who would have drafted him.

    I would argue that if any other club drafted him instead of the dees that he would have had a much better development pathway. He was drafted as a key forward and we had him playing as a hard tagger in the midfield. How many head coaches did he have during that time? The best ones were Danniher who left after 2 years and Roos who stopped playing him in favour of developing OMac.

    Despite all this he loves the club.

    Unfairly shafted by Roos, I heard it was because he liked to drop the odd torpedo into the centre of the game.

    The club didn't show too much appreciation when they bundled him out the door. Loyalty cuts both ways

    I remember that DL posters would regularly offer up "Dunn and Bate" as trade bait (pun intended).

    Sounds like a very dodgy legal firm. In Queanbeyan, we have Greeny and Sweany. No joke.

    Saw Dunny, with his kid, at the Tigers game earlier this year, barracking for the Dees and giving Tigers supporters the big send off as they left early. 


    One of my friends was his sponsor when he was at the dees and he tells me he was a really good guy, I think he’s genuine in his support for us.

    Still curious as to why he went from the leadership group, holding down full back admirably, and playing almost every game to only 4 games in 2016 before seemingly pushed out. Seems weren't given all the information. Also seemed very unfair

    And maybe many here would like to see that again, very occasionally 🙄, replacing the long kick to a pack on the left wing.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      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?
