Should have been named in squad & been pushing for selection instead of Arnott.

You have to wonder don't you. VFL form should be rewarded.
 
Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42

Just read Madonna was subbed at 3/4 time and also spent time in defence so his numbers aren't too bad .
 
Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42

A few articles and interviews on the RFC website.

Does this mean he is a possible inclusion for this week?

I think he is a good chance to come in for Corey or Connor. Really want to see him get a good run at it.
 
Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42

I've always had time for him but he needed to go back and work on his tank (read 'possession count') and defensive efforts.

He has had plenty time in the VFL to improve these things.

Make no mistake, his time is now.

Only if the coach and selectors feel that it is mate. If not, bom bommm...

Hope Mat has another good game, he deserves another gig.
His type will be handy against the Swine's.
 
Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42

11 possession in the first 1/4, keep on keeping on Mat.

Playing well, expect him not to get selected though....
 
Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42

Didn't see the game, did he play inside mid? We could do with another one.
 
Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42

If Dimma and co-selectors are looking to the future then it must overlook any temptation to pick Newman. Newman's days are done. Loyal and admirable servant aside, he is no longer the future.
Would really like to see McDonough given a decent crack at senior level with a role in the forward line. He may not be a world-beater, yet i do sense he could provide a dynamic that the Tigers lack at times, particularly if he is given the opportunity to settle into the team.
 
Re: Welcome Matthew McDonough at pick 42

Please Dimma give this kid an opportunity in the seniors I really believe Matt has the ability to become a really good HFF with the ability to go in the midfield and have an impact. HE JUST NEEDS A FAIR GO!!!!!!
