I think Lynden Dunn has as much potential as just about any of our young players on our list.

Super competetive, smart, good hands and decision making in close, can play a defensive role as well as go foward and kick a goal.

He just needs to improve his consistency throughout the four quarters of a game, as he tends to go a little missing at the moment, but i predict he on the bubble of becoming one of our best players in the next 2-3 years.

I also believe he has leadership material written all over him, and don't think it would be a stretch to say he could be captian or vice -captain somewhere down the line.

Absolutely.

Dunn still needs to bulk up a bit but has a big future ahead of him

Bailey will turn him into a star

And he will do the same to Mclean, Sylvia, jones, bate, petterd, frawley, newton etc.........

You're not a big fan of the "undersell and overdeliver" motto are you YM?

Dunn gave away way too many free kicks yesterday. He's obviously still getting used to the "wear him like a glove" aspect as it's pretty new to him. If he can play tight without being all over the bloke then he has a big future.

interesting point. i noticed similar things, however i thought the umpires were way too aware of dunn yesterday. how many times are mclean, bruce and trapper help and pushed around packs without getting a free? how many times is neitz dragged to the ground allowing him to only get one hand up for the mark without getting a free. the umpires paid dunn too much attention yesterday for my liking...

however, if dunn is going to play that role, he needs to learn how to do it and look subtle. once you draw attention to it, you need to back off for a bit...

regarding dunn as a player, he seems really footy smart, he has all the athletic abilities, so its up to him what he becomes. i look forward to watching his development, but yes he could be a very good player eventually...

If he could improve his amrking overhead and specifically contested marking then he could be a very good forward and bloody hard to match up on because of his agility. At this stage I think he's been generally overrated by demon fans but he still has time to develop, he's still learning the game so there is hope.

Guys, I/we don't mind if threads naturally drift off topic (it's the natural way conversations flow), but can you please try to avoid changing the topic completely to something completely unrelated in the middle of a thread.

Ta.

Ummm how did they go off topic?

I would have to agree, like most of us that Dunn needs a bit more development and he will become one of our "needed" players.
