Finally! Congratulations Kade. 

 

Great news.

Just hope he gets a decient run of games at some point next season.  Was absolutely robbed of an opertuity to have a crack at senior level last season when the AFL dubiously suspended him for accidentally falling in the back of an opposition player 🤦‍♂️🤬🤬.

    Showing my age here, but Kade is a monty for Judge Dredd. If I had my way I would nick name him Dredd.

    Had no choice after his first half in the VFL grand final. Was some performance. Hoping he can replicate that at AFL level in '23, and really push on now.

    I think if Kade can continue to improve his ball use forward of centre and increase his fitness then he will definitely push hard for one of those 3 small forward half roles.

    Young bloke just bustin' to give it a crack. Deservedly elevated after patiently awaiting his opportunity. Trust he really gets a fair go at it next season and beyond. Good luck Kade!

    The MFC article says he was drafted to the rookie list in 2018 and played his first game in 2019. Unless my maths is faulty, that means he was a rookie for 4 years. I didn't think that was even possible.

    Congratulations are in order as much for persistence as anything else.

    Your maths is perfect!

    Due to covid the AFL extended the rookie list timeframe in 2020/2021.  I believe it is now 3 years again.

    Well done Kade Chandler and MFC. I love this kid, he has speed, talent and desire to win I also hope that he gets a good crack at it. He did play a pearler in the Casey Granny.!!!

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
