Anyone notice that the club gave Kynan his father's first jumper number when he started.  No. 41.

    Perhaps playing a different role SthSea22, we shall soon find out.

    I simply cannot justify his inclusion 

    10 touches per game

    How does Kynan get a game in front of AMW?

    Not sure, but suspect it's based on the club seeing AMW as a defender, and therefore has to replace, Bowie, McVee or possibly Salem.  Not saying they are in great form, but they aren't our poorest contributors either.
    Brown seen more as a small forward currently, and as such there is an opening in the team.

    Fortunately for you, we have the match committee to do that role, you can take the night off 👍
    10 players had 10 or less touches for the game when we played the Pies a couple of weeks ago.  The kid isn't going to be a midfielder yet.

    Asking the wrong guy :)  but he looked ok in the VFL a couple of weeks back, but did very little in the AFL in his first 3 games. Maybe he's been asked to work on some areas of his game in the VFL and will get another crack soon.

    Bound for the Swans, as his third club, next year then?

    Game-saving tackle for his first touch; forget the dime-a-dozen ”goal with his first kick” - that’s a memorable stat to be really proud of.

    Like his Dad, first game was a cliff-hanger win - Doggy’s being a famous Princes Park 2-pointer against Carlton.

    Well done young fella!

    May I ask where people got the 'VFL 10 disposals a game' figure from? The source was not reality.

    https://vfl.aflmstats.com/player/Kynan_Brown

    And for the other thing people were sulking about; players making their debut as sub is completely normal. Kynan wasn't even the only debut-sub player that day.

     Anyway, Brown looked like a nervous excited kid the whole time, but I'm glad his son quickly found his focus! 😁

    Everyone knows Oliver is struggling at the moment and everyone is also terrified of being the one who plays him back into form because it would be a disaster for any opponent.

    Oliver regaining form would be like giving back the missing limb of a three-legged dog. We'd go sprinting just for the joy of it and there would be no restraining us.

    Only got 10 minutes ,  in my view should have been much longer.

    but that 4 point saving tackle, quick and a hard tackle saved us last night. Will live for a long time those 10 minutes.  And the faces of old Dog and Yse sitting in the stands  really great. 
     

    go Dee’s    A win is better than a loss but a zero score in the last .  ?

    100% agree on playing time. If your going to announce a debut and make a big deal of you should probably do so if you plan to play the kid in the 22. I think the same for any debutant. Sitting on the bench burning nervous energy isn't great IMHO.

    His was close to another Schache debacle.  Really Simon has just scraped in by his teeth in this one.

    Slow learner Simon imagine the ruckus if he didn’t use our sub AGAIN.  

    Instant dismissal or resignation!!    

    Gee his match day methods are archaic at times.

    Unbelievably negative and so disappointing just shows why he should have let Josh Shak Attack have his 15 mins in the sun. We might have won!!!!!

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
