Ex-#44 Shaun McKernan

I think he is a good use of a list spot as he gives us a bit of depth across a few positions and I actually quite like him. But man, I’m really surprised they have picked him. A great opportunity to go with a smaller, better pressure forward line of a Laverde, Stewart, Stringer but instead they are doubling down on this system that clearly ain’t working. Either it’s particularly courages or just stubbornly stupid.

Can I be both dumbfounded that he has been given a game this week, as well as really happy for the big guy?

i dont really defend anything the dons have done the last 3 years, always despised worsfold, but Smack has never been given a chance to string games together cause our fckwit coaches give them 2 weeks max then push them back

i reckon he would be in our best 10 weekly given the chance as the game suits his style now

  • Will play really well tomorrow and kick 4 goals
  • The following week he will have 5 disposals and not kick a sincle score
  • Will get dropped after that

100% this will happen

Well, at least that would be a PB for goals kicked in a match.

Got the Powerball number for next Thursday?

He isn’t better than either of them. Waste of a list spot and is taking the spot of a kid. Poor selection IMHO

He’s gonna play good and YOUR ALL going to like it

I really wish him all the best but where this club is at I just don’t understand why hes playing, I really don’t and its infuriating me.

Gotta maintain that forward structure that’s been doing so well.

He had a BOG in the preseason against Richmond. I’d rate his performance against a 3/4 pace Richmond over anything he has done in the VFL any day. Theres limited positions for immobile KPs… at least he’s an athlete and offers a bit of tackle and ground ball pressure, more so than a Hooker or crocked Daniher would.

Will probably fit in well with most of our players these days.

It ain’t his fault he gets selected, just like Myers

It’s bizzare he gets a go 8 weeks in though and not round 1 when he actually deserved a shot off the back of his whole pre season

With Daniher out for at least a month this is his chance to save his career.

I suspect Hooker will be back up forward meaning he’ll probably be attracting the number 3 defender. Needs to present hard and PRESSURE.

Give em hell Smack

If he can’t thrive today he never will.

It’s all set up for a big game and I’m backing him in!

Gives 100% every time.
