Not looking the greatest tbh mate. Any idea if he'd still be a top 5 pick if north weren't getting him F/S? Any chance of no-one will put a bid in and he could slip to our second rounder? Wishful thinking I know

His workload is very modified. He is training for the under 18 champs.

There's no way any club is going to let North have him for a second round pick.

No chance. Certain top 8 pick, probably top 5.

his vfl debut match where he got 31 disposals and 1 goal was amazing, has tapered off since but he is being managed in terms of time on ground and is still contributing and playing against men.
He will dominate the champs this year, i excpect another All australian for him this year to go along with his all australian as a bottom ager last year

looks like he is having a tough time getting clean possession. is he still tagging or doing his run with roles?

Tagging/Back Pocket/Limited game load.

McDonald would be my second pick in the draft behind Boyd for me, the kid has it all. Genuine player.

Agreed. If Boyd wasn't available, he'd be perfect for us. Exactly what we need.

God damn you, North.

Hey settle down mate.

Jesse Smith would be a 150+ game all Australian centre half back by now.

We deserve a little good F/S luck.

I'm settled .

He's just the exact kind of player we need. You've definitely lucked out with this one.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Yeah, the boy can play a bit.

We got lucky.

 

[Pykie]

He's got a bit of a niggling knee from what I've been told.

Has had under 50% TOG for Werribee for his last few weeks, and has only been playing 1 or 2 qtrs in the trials for Vic Metro, will be interesting to see how much he plays in the champs

I'll be interested to see if he plays in the Foxtel Cup next week, he's missed the last 2 VFL games.

 

[Tulip]

I'm looking forward to seeing him play AFL, plenty of noise around him.

yea tom boyd would be the only player in the draft i would consider taking ahead of McDonald but even then i would still go McDonald first because of his versatility and leadership, Luke has no weaknesses, is a complete player. Also is named captain for Vic Metro this year, has plenty of accomplishments in his junior career so far and i expect more by the end of the year.
