Farewell Kye Turner

He’s a plan D insurance policy. Actually hope he doesn’t get a game because that would mean we have stacks of injuries. He’s behind 6-7 key defender types. More likely a chance if Lever and Tomlinson and Joel Smith and Dan Turner were injured. He’s not ready for AFL but has time and development so hope he gets in to benefit from a full year at Casey.

    He’s an Old Haileyburyian like a certain former No 1 draft pick who isn’t well thought of among many MFC fans. Perhaps, he can have a stellar career and atone for the other bloke’s sin of walking out after being lured by treasure from up north.

    But #10’s also an old Haileyburian ! (and there may be others lurking within the playing group as well).

    There's a 'few' lurking at other clubs including  Karl Amon, Josh Battle , Aidan Bonar, Andrew Brayshaw, Charlie Constable, Luke Davies-Uniacke, Jack Gunston, Hugo Hall-Kalan, Max and Ben King, Connor MacDonald, Hugo Ralph-Smith, Jack Scrimshaw, Liam Stocker, Cody Weightman, Marcus Windhager and Josh Worrell.*

    Austin Bradkte was on the rookie list briefly, Jack Bell once listed at St Kilda, played with Casey last season. Paul Hopgood, Stefan Martin, Laurie Queay, Tom Scully, Tom Lynch and Stewart Loewe are Old Haileybury-VFL/AFL alumni.

    Scott Pendlebury and Nathan Jones will join Matthew Lloyd on the coaching panel this year at Haileybury. So it's not unreasonable to expect more AFL class recruits from this school's footy program.

    Wow, 3 AFL great players on a school football coaching panel.

    Unbelievable.

    Good to see not the same old Talent pathways are being used.  Last 3 year has thrown everything in a spin. Maybe we can value outside normal thinking. 

    Any game for the dees and this is a massive win.

    The first lists are due on the 31st of October so they had to make a decision on Kye Turner and AMW.

    Kye did not get much of a chance to show his talent at VFL level due to injury, spots on the list are very tight.

    A lovely, well-mannered young man. Sad to see him go. 😢

    Poor bugger. Reckon he is pretty stiff considering he missed significant part of the season due to injury.

    Footy can be brutal.

    3Some players simply wont make it but guys like McVee Bowey Rivers take that major step up almost immediately. McVee was one of our big success stories in '23.

    Buckle up for a big list clean out this time next year. Ruthless business.

    Yes surprised but not surprising.  Had interrupted year with injury.  Looked okay but I think he would need a preseason to really show his capabilities.  Tough world of AFL for lots of young blokes at this time of year.

    Unlucky, showed a bit of promise in the early VFL rounds then his body broke down.

    I thought he’d get another year given how hard it is to find athletic tall defenders but they might have other options in the draft pool.

    Stiff but understandable. Does this give AMW another year? 

    Has another year of eligible as a cat B rookie so I doubt this makes any difference. Expecting them to make a decision on him soon though

    Probably gone as a result of us holding 6 and 11 and being concerned about using them, if we haven't traded up.

    I would imagine Melk now will be delisted and rookied, giving us another draft selection.

    PS: Sorry, forgot to wish Kye well in the future.

    Thanks Kye Turner, looked a promising athletic young back up defender but has had a cruel run with injury. Good luck in the future young man.

    Can someone remind me why Moniz-Wakefield is category B? Is he from another sport? Born overseas? Something else?

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
