    I hear Malthouse and Cornes don't rate Brown

    With this weeks 'ins', joining Chin and Kossie, and when that Casey beanpole clicks, all we'll then need is the other young White to join us and 'K' will become the new 'J' at the Dees!

     

    (...though oh for the sensible days of Ken, Kevin, Keith, even Kit)

    Tom Morris reporting the Brown family were unhappy ANB made the debut announcement, when they were promised Kozzie.

    Apparently Tom morris got this story from a Collingwood source.

    We certainly need some energy and enthusiasm within the group so I think this debut is a great call

    Can't wait to see him in action! How's his form been at Casey? Haven't been following too closely

    Musing on this good news based entirely on a couple of pre-draft clips and reports from Casey-watchers - am I on the correct planet when I feel like Kynan might gradually fill a very similar role (positionally and 'attitudinally' to Nibbler?

    Can never have too many honest workers who produce the occasional outstanding game in amongst a consistent team-oriented body of work.

    Kynan is certainly a goer & good luck to him. I've seen most of Casey games this year & I reckon AMW is more developed & has been in better form but what would I know.

    Great observation Little Goffy.😁

    Best of luck to him. I was impressed with him in his draft year. He's got a great work ethic and loves to crack in and try to use his speed too. His attitude could carry him far as a player, but he's still got some size to put on to compete at AFL level. His ceiling and aim would be an ANB pressure and link type player at the level. 

    Keen to see how he goes against North. Won't die wondering!

    Just saw his latest photograph today and he has morphed into a clone of his dad.

    Always great to see a debut. However, I am surprised. I would have thought others from Casey were ahead of him for a debut (AMW for example) but I think it is his two way running, attitude and adaptability that might have given him the nod. 

    His dad was one of my favourite players: dogged and consistent, but also had a great side-step and feint to throw opposition players away from him. It would be great to see this passed down the genetic line.

    Watched the announcement video and the BCNA visit video as well. Both great vids and the second one a great initiative by the club. You can't stay down too long as a group and it was great to see the boys energised.

    And this - another player reflecting positively on Greg Stafford: 'Staff's been huge'. I guess it could mean they like what he gives, rather than it necessarily being effective in games, but...

    Amw is only good at getting cheap positions of half back, can't get a kick anywhere else

    How does Kynan get a game in front of AMW?

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
