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

    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: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
