Maybe you were speaking to a friend of a different Logan, the article below lists our Logan's achievements in 2019 and if he did his ACL, he hid it pretty well.
AFL Draft Watch: Logan McDonald (Perth/Western Australia)
IN the build up to football eventually returning, Draft Central takes a look at some of this year’s brightest names who have already represented their state at Under 17 or Under 18s level in 2019. While plenty can change between now and then, we will provide a bit of an insight into players...
afl.draftcentral.com.au
Can't find any news of the ACL and he definitely played football in 2019. Is it possible he had a medial ligament or something not as serious? He also doesn't appear to have any signs of an ACL. Both legs are like tree trunks.
Like everyone else shocked re the McLean pick. Not concerned that he'll get towed up, but more so that he's been chosen in a wet weather game over players who might be been more useful in such conditions.

I nominate the following drinking game for tomorrow night.
Any mention of Daniher almost playing for Sydney =
Daniher kicks a goal....and the ensuing Sydney regrets =

They could play Macartin on Daniher, Rampe on Hipwood and Mclean on Fullarton. I think Mclean will hold his own on the young kid and has that extra height that Melican may have struggled with. Strange decision if Melican isn't injured but they have gone for getting the right matchups. If it's going to be wet I'd be surprised if Brisbane go in that tall to be honest.
In which case Mclean could go forward and give Hickey some help or Rampe gets freed up to play on a small.

could be true.. might have been 2018. The fella I was talking to came to work with his Swans shorts on 2 weeks ago.. got talking to him. His son played with Logan in Perth. He said he missed a lot of footy just before his draft year due to an ACL.
He was a good guy, knew his footy, no reason to not believe him
happy to be wrong

I can see him playing there at times. Especially when McInerney goes forward for a rest and Hipwood or Fulkarton go into the ruck. I think it a smart move. The other thing is if he drifts forward he is going to stretch the Lions backs who don't run to Giant status. In fact they are undersized atm.
I think it is an interesting line up. A lot if youth but a lot of dare. I think Longmire is saying 'I' m giving you a go niw let's see what you can do'. Campbell has been named on the wing. This might be a furphy but it might not. His delivery is sweet and I think more suited to a wing or mid role.
I like this team. We play a very experienced side who have aspirations of a premiership this year. We are still only blooding youngsters. Sure we could get blown away but I think this group might just survive. But we cannot alliw the sort of lead we allowed GWS last week or then we will have a blow out because their confidence will grow the further they get ahead.
We need to stay with them or dictate play. If we don't so either we will be in for a long day. We have the talent. We just lack experience and a long stretch playing together.

Stats of McDonald's 2019
Height: 195.5cm
Weight: 85.2kg
Position: Key Forward
2019 WAFL COLTS STATS: 6 games | 10.8 disposals | 2.6 marks | 3 tackles | 1.5 goals
2019 UNDER 18 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS STATS: 3 games | 11.3 disposals | 4.3 marks | 2 tackles | 1.3 inside 50s | 1 goal
He also played local footy.
He didn't miss a game in 2020 as well. If he had done an ACL there would have been a recovery period.
Your friend is wrong.
Edit: He also played the entirety of 2018 and had a very strong under 16's carnival kicking 6 goals against Vic metro.

Pretty sure he played there just before joining the Swans after having been a fwd most of the time.
Though I expect him to be forward, and Reid back as he won't have the mobility to go with even Daniher, and certainly not Hipwood.
McCartin on Daniher and Reid on Hipwwod seems the way to go. Just how I see it. Could be completely wrong.
I wondered about Reid going back but I doubt they'd want McDonald toiling away without a senior tall to take the heat off him. Having Andrews to contend with is not ideal for an 18 year old on debut in torrential rain.

So it's more or less confirmed, Mick Oxlong's account was just King when he was in a bad mood then?

From memory McDonald played all of 2019 but was largely unimpressive. He broke through in 2020 and had a brilliant season. At the beginning of the year I think he was in 20-30 range for the draft

Looks like he has... I'll wait until they actually run out, but I'm betting they'll be there

I think there will be alot of experts surprised by the young Swans this year. A bit of experience to lead this exciting group of young player. A few that now have good game day exposure. So it will come down to injuries, the ability to be selfless for each other & to score closer to 100 points a game. I have a feeling this will happen and people will notice what is coming in the next few years.
