VFL Past #65: Shaun McKernan 🐴 - Returns to the Dons

[MattyB3150]

Good question.

And I would say your answer would be highly likely - i.e. that he's more athletic but presumable easier to be pushed around.

PS how tall is he exactly?

I got it mixed up but close enough to same height and 10kgs the difference.

Shaun McKernan is 196 cm / 99 kg
Corey McKernan was 197 cm / 108 kg

 

[PressureCooker]

So long as he has a dip, most fans will be happy.

Be it from injury/laziness/whatever else, Bellchambers looked like he didn't want to be there his past three-odd months.

EFA

brillaint seeing the big 44 under the bottom of packs after a stoppage.. presence! heart!

 

[Howard Moon]

dat tackle on mitchell.... THATS what a ruckman does around the ground.. hurt

 

[Heppellfreak]

Makes us look like a much better team, really like this bloke.

 

[lenny2013]

Onya Smack!

 

[Whispering_Jack]

Taps to advantage were impressive.

 

[yaco55]

Reckon he rucked too much - Needs to spend more time in the forward half - Good game today.

Agree, would be a fantastic second ruck.

 

[quotemokc]

Have we played 2 genuine ruckmen in the same match this year yet?

 

[Kakkle]

This ******* club.


Seriously should've played 10 games by now.

Once. Probably our best ruck game overall too (North).

 

[theboxmike]

He looks like one of the few guys willing to have a crack, good game from him.

 

[Beerfish]

Should never have gone out of the side.

 

[eth-dog]

21 disposals. As a ruckman. Needs to play second fiddle, however.

This. He is not a #1 ruckman.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Like him could be our Maric.

I'm actually lending myself to the opinion that he should be a CHF.

Yup. Smack at CHF, JD out of the square, Carlisle leading up the ground and Edwards, Fantasia, J Merrett crumbing

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

I agree play him CHF the bloke can clunk em.

 

[yaco55]

Posted earlier the break up should McKernan 50%,carlisle 30% and JD 20%.

 

[Zach Package]

a fit Belch backed up by Smacka could be absolutely friggen enormous for this club.

Joe and Jake would never have to worry about rucking again and they can both go forward and wax off each other depending on the type of rucks they're up against.

 

[Howard Moon]

I wish his crunch tackle was after the Mitchell jab... Would have felt better

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Great game, really has a crack

 

[Thebisc]

Just can't believe he's only played 2 games. Such a bad look on selection/coaching panel
