    I hope all Dee’s fans are realistic about Kolt in his first game and aren’t disappointed if he doesn’t have a great game.

    On what we have seen he has the talent to make it, but may need time as most young players do.

    Then again, he could turn it on.

    Fully realistic. Nothing short of:

    -25 touches

    -4 goals, with a GOTY contender

    -7 jack viney style brutal tackles

    -Dermott brereton style run through of the opposition huddle

    -Shaun Smithesque Hanger standing atop Max Gawn 

    -3, 2 and 1 broqnlow votes and be awarded the Norm Smith in advance 

    Would get close to what this kid is capable of in game 1🤣

    Similar with Caleb. Demonlanders need to temper expectations rather than hyping up these boys and then ripping them down when they don't dominate or when they have normal developmental patches.

    Don't generalise bin's p a ( or worse still patronise ).

    I am among those ' landers who have pumped up Windsor. I've also touched on the comparison with the great man.

    However, myself, and I'm sure most 'landers are also realists - we know there will be setbacks and flat moments during the development of a career.

    Let's just enjoy ( or dream about ) the highs for the moment.

    Went to the ground just to watch this young man tonight.

    Short steps.  Ah la  Jimmy Toumpas

     

    Couldn't be more dissapointed in his debut.

    This is a [censored] post IMO.

    Even if you're thinking if, even if it's true, he's an 18-year old debutant playing in a side where his A-grade teammates were getting belted.

    More importantly, he clearly isn't ready for AFL level football. That's on the FD, not him. He simply should not have been picked.

    I want us supporting our kids, not throwing them under the bus.

    Not sure what the thought process was to pick Kolt tonight. He hasn't done anything to look even remotely close to being ready and you fed him to the lions (no pun intended). This was as bad as sending Watts into play the pies on QBD.

    Meh, kid played in the toughest spot on the ground in a midfield smashing, I thought his work rate was good, he held a number of strong tackles and he had good energy.

    Might be dropped or subbed but I doubt there’s any long term effects from a quiet debut.

    Not sure exactly who else we should’ve played. I suggested Kynan Brown but he’s so light he would’ve been brushed aside just as easily. Otherwise AMW as a forward but maybe that’s mucking his development when we might need a dashing defender very soon. Plus we need him to develop as a player.

    Everytime he was near the ball he was within 2 meters of the boundary dealing with a grubber. Not sure what he's meant to do

    I've been a bit bored watching the footy since the departures of Fitzy and Frost. Thinking the Kolt might fill that chaos gap but with a bit more competence. Hopefully we can now accommodate a square peg.

    Kolt was fine, he is going to be a good player.  He is used to being bigger and stronger than his opponents which shower with him trying to push them off.  When he fills out he will be much better.

    The first 5 min of the game i recon he was tackled 4 times for a ball up which doesn't show as a stat on the scorecard but they are important touches none the less and shows he is in the right spots.

    He will be fine and i hope he gets another couple of runs this year!

    I wouldn't be judging a young players debut at all tonight going on how his teammates played, must have been so hard for him.

    I thought he did very well, looked confident with a good attitude and strong, hope we see more of him.  Shocking night to debut the whole team was very shaky, he got thrown under the bus a few times too I thought.  

    I reckon he did well with what he had to work with last night, I hope we give him more games this year in the seniors.

    Think he's a troll spouting garbage.

    Would love the mods to kick people like this off....

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
