Unless he was teleported from WA he physically couldn’t attend training any earlier. And no, he knew nothing about us picking him in the MSD until we picked him.

Quite clearly we'll all look back in 50 years and see the fact that Luker Kentfield took "too long" to get to his first training session as the starting point of the crumbling of the MFC empire, much like the sacking of Norm Smith in 1965.  Thanks for bringing it to all our attention so early!

I’m surprised the club didn’t realise pics or an interview with our new recruit. Hopefully it comes out soon.

They don't have a picture on his website profile, so I wouldn't be holding my breath waiting for more detailed coverage.

Did I say that?

I'm just highlighting how a club that has beaten us (west coast), has managed to recruit a mid season draftee from Victoria, get them training and playing that same week (kicking 5 in the wafl) and gets announced his debut the following week

 Meanwhile our mid season recruit starts training the following week after the draft, and will probably be in the 2s all year

 

No not going to destroy the club. But maybe shows you the different standards between the 2 clubs

Other clubs had their draftees starting last week

 

Seriously, are you really that new or have you posted here before.

Are you that Hawk the Demon guy?

Meanwhile if we picked Kentfield this week you’d probably call us “desperate”.

I think you’ve made your point about a dozen times now. We get it. Time to let it rest because you are annoying the F out of everyone. If that’s your aim then you’ve achieved that too. Well done. 

Has Olisik returned under a new name, very similar posting

West Coast have a history of playing mid season draft recruits straight away.

The bloke from Charcoal Chicken comes to mind either last year or the year before.

I'm of the belief that the mid season draft should be used for players that can instantly help and impact clubs for the second half of the year. Players that are burning up the VFL/WAFL/SANFL and can hit the ground running in the AFL in a position that a club is currently lacking - eg - a 22+ year old natural forward to help the MFC.

The difference between us and Weagles is that they have had access to the top 5 players available in all drafts over the past 3-4 years. We have to go for best of the rest, who went after us did they play same week or AFL the following week???


you know what, screw it. All aboard the Kenter-train. I'm sick of tearing hair out trying to work out what on earth we're doing on-field. Pick him this week, he'll kick 6. It'll be fun. 

Nothing more familiar to a dees fan than getting a whopping and pouring all hope back into draft times. lean into familiarity.

Funny Sunday night I was thinking well we have the fall back of looking forward to the draft as the highlight of the year.

Hilarious!!! You’re sooooo funny. Goody told me Luker barracks for Freo and I told him we’d smack that outta him soon enough. 😂

So he arrives with a winning mind-set then @WalkingCivilWar.

Seems to have. Not sure if that’s got to do with barracking for Freo though.

He seems a naturally confident, self-assured kid, but not in a cocky arrogant way. Similar nature to Kolt. 

Just watched him on the Dees website you are right WCW another excellent recruit confident and self assured but humble as well. He said that JT rang him on the Monday night and wished him good luck in the draft and he didn’t know that he had been drafted until his coach told him at training that he better check his phone. Really like the look and sound of him.😁😁

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
