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

Cant wait to see what hair style Nathan Carrol is rocking when he presents his jumper to Brown

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.

So McAdam can't get another crack

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! 😁

Just watched replay what the hell is wrong with Clayton?

Absolute liability so far off its sad to watch

6 years to go and $6000000 What do we do ?He is a shadow of his former self hard to watch

Clarko doesn't think so had a hard tag all game.

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.

Why not.  He is not exhausted

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!!!!!

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
