Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
He used to go alright as a small forward. And it seems you can't have too many of those.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
He's a forward that can go into the midfield. He can kick goals. Not sure why he's running off half back. Must be an education thing.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
Thats definitrly a better option for him, but goal kicking small forward has suddenly becoming a crowded space at Tigerland.
I wish him all the best; I definitely like the way he goes about it. Just can't see where he fits in the grander scheme of things.
At least we are developing depth in most positions, which is long overdue.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
All fair points but Kingy aint getting any younger and no-one's put their hand up as yet. One thing I'd like to see is his strength overhead, that's where I think he'd be struggling against the likes of Lloyd & Gordon.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
Also ahead of McBean McIntosh although for different positions.
Possibly ranked 25-28 so on the fringe of being an emergency
I thought he looked better than Helbig and Arnot have, but not sure if that gets him a game.shad said:

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
Half forward who kicks goals. This boy is the reason we let White walk. Will produce more than White did in year 7 by his year 3.
Super clever, wins clearances and just knows how to kick goals. Huge wrap for him, hope he is in round 1.
But the depth is getting impressive. Wouldn't mind if he played 12 games at VFL and averaged 25 touches and 7 clearances a week.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
No way does Lloyd get named ahead of Kingy, still a long way to go for Sam, both on a fitness level and adding a bit of polish.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
Yeah. After cotchin, reiwoldt, dusty, lids, tv, rance, chaplin, conca, ellis, vlastuin, edwards, houli, jackson, morris and newman, he'd definately be one of the first picked, when hes fit.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
Would it be sacrilege to suggest he could make a dazzling back pocket? He seems to be a natural footballer - and those types, rare as they are - can play anywhere.
Johnson, Wanganeen and Ackerly before them made this a creative position. Why not Madonna?

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
If he plays senior footy this year it will be off half back.
He has been training there all pre-season.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
There's a long queue for one of those possies. Guess he won't be a regular this year.

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
In the NAB he has shown he has real potential but a NAB match is not the same as AFL. He still has the rabbit in the headlights look at times so half a season in VFL should move him forward potential wise then maybe another game at AFL

Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42
The way I read it is that just about all small/mediums get a stint at halfback. It doesn't mean that everyone is a halfback but that Dimma wants flexible running players who have the ability to swing into different roles and have also learned to be accountable.
