He’s hovered around 10 since 2019, I expect his player rating to get closer to that over the year.
What do you think Dale and Houston are getting paid?
You do have to consider that it was the last year of Dodoro, so there was probably a trigger for a 7th year that he’s already met.
(Edit: timelines may not in fact match. Comment was made for comedic purposes)
Don’t know about Dale. Houston got 6 years and I imagine he’s on slightly better coin than McGrath
Yep, that"s true. It’s a list-mangement mis-step though- yet this thread is very player-focussed in its outrage (not your post).
Trigger would have been:
- Mention PANDO at min 10 times in 2024, and double that in 2025. (I’m sure Dodoro is an investor)
- Take over 40 bounces a season, even if you have to run backwards and do a few 360’s… get your bounces up
- average between 10-14 clangers a game, no more, and certainly no less

That’s fine, but we can’t separate it from his 6 year 700k ish deal.
You reckon Harry Cunningham is on a deal like that, or brandon starcevich. We didn’t even give Jake Kelly that long.
Contracts aren’t released publicly - at least not full lists of clubs. It’s great. I can say he’s on a great value deal and you can say he’s not and there’s no hard evidence to suggest either way.
Who is this guy? What a half Andy
He has been phenomenal
Thats why he went pick 1
Outstanding
Does it pretty regularly. He’s elite.
Depending on how much a player is liked and where they were drafted determines how much vitriol some posters give them. It’s just noisy foam.
That was a pretty special half, never seen him play this good
If this game was the norm and not the one in every 6-8 weeks, the discussion in here would be about his all-Australian form rather than whether he should be playing VFL or not.
He isnt nearly as bad as some make out, nor does he play like this super often.
He is average most weeks with these performances every now and then, and that is completely fine imo.
Ffs. Give him some credit then he comes out after halftime and it’s same old butcher McGrath.
Hayes injury doesn’t happen if McGrath doesn’t turn it over.
Mcgrath again with a super game
Did you watch the second half?
Did you?
Or is it just easy to blame McGrath for everything.
kept Heeney goal less too. awesome game
Heeney kept Heeney goalless. Missed two easy ones.
Funny because ■■■■■■■■ next to me in the crowd lost a multi because of that.
