Matthew McCarthy

[swarvay]

Does anyone else think he could play as a third tall down back? If he did he would release Mooney to push forward and give us the third tall up forward and when you add Chapman, S.Johnson and Gaz its a forward line that can stretch any backline.

Any thoughts???

NO

About 20 years ago when guys like Picken and Hawkins played CHB , but these days you need mobility, agility and footskills , three strikes and your out

 

[rizzo]

No, His kicking is to bad for a defender

 

[Fall Out Boy]

No. H is a much better option, especially with Gumby ailing.

yeah H was the first thing that came to my head, he would be much better then McCarthy in the backline.

Sadly, it will never eventuate. We're much more likely to see poor Charlie who is having a shocking time at the moment omitted for Haynes, with McCarthy a slim chance.

Bomber said after the match last week that he wanted McCarthy back in the team before the finals so he could have a bit of a look.

I would love to see Matt or Lonners get a run before the season is out.

Personally i'd rest Gumby up for the finals, and give either one of these a chance to earn a spot for the finals.

McCarthy deserves a chance more than Haynes, but then again when does that matter. See: Steve Johnson

I reckon McCarthy could be a strong chance to play this week.He was very good in the VFL.

He may replace Mooney,if he was given a rest,but more likely to replace Henry [he'd be stiff ].

You could then have a forward line of

FF : Ablett Graham Chapman
HF : Kingsley McCarthy S Johnson

 

[Rodion]

Mooney is out of sorts. He needs a week off to rest his aching muscles so he's ready for finals action.

Matty McCarthy's kicking is nowhere near as deplorable as it was earlier in the year, and couldn't possibly be any worse than Kant Kicksley's and at least Macca can take a mark. He also showed in the first couple of rounds that he can pinch-hit as a ruckman. Now would be a good time to give him a run.

IN McCarthy
OUT Mooney

I think McCarthys best position will be playing at CHF with long leads up the ground, watching Matt, he can actually kick the ball alright when he passes to another player. If we played him as a long leading CHF this would take out his inaccuracy with his shots at goal.

Whats his kicking like when he's going for goal, because thats the main concern. i think its the pressure that he builds up on himself when he is kicking for goal. he thinks about it to much, just go back and slot it through, matty.
