I think Lemmey gets at least another year but will need to show progression obviously.

Would be very surprised if they are “consistently flogged” in 2025.

That would really help the AFL team, to have a strong VFL team & playing pushing for selection

I hope not. We've been terrible for a couple of years just as we've needed them to be good so players could get games during finals.

did a sterling job with our injury riddled VFL side.
Most of our other losses were fairly close and could've gone either way.

This is interesting because it would mean one of Carroll/Durdin won't be a train on player as we are only allowed to have 4.

Seems Josh Gabelich has deleted this tweet so not sure if that means White is not a train-on player

I know I'm a broken record, but signing McMahon is a no brainer imo.

He's still only 22yo, so now approaching the age where key forwards start to mature. Proven goal kicker (2nd overall in the VFL) and won our B&F....not sure what more he needs to do to earn a spot.

Anyway, I digress. If H or Charles go down for an extended period during the season, we're in all sorts. You can start plugging holes or trying to manufacture a makeshift forward half week after week. Or throw TDK up there at the expense of our ruck, and bring Pitto in as our 1st ruck. Or throw JSOS or Kemp there as a key marking option week after week, and pray for the best.

Of course we've got Lemmey - but at the end of last year when we our arses were hanging out the seat of our pants with a huge injury toll, no key forwards, and only 27 odd players to choose from, big Lem was still kcking the dew off the grass in the VFL....which just demonstrates the MC don't have the confidence right now to give him a crack at senior level. That may change over summer, but if it doesn't, we're back to bare bones.

For mine, we desperately need another forward who can take a big grab and kick goals. Who knows, McMahon may become our Logan Morris as that 3rd tall mobile marking forward.

Out of our other train ons, I'm not convinced in the slightest with DGB, Carroll now appears to be surplus especially after today, and big Nigel can't be trusted to get onto the park. I'd be taking McMahon and leave the other spot for the mid season draft....unless the next Eddie Betts/Jeff Garlett small forward happens to fall on our laps.

100% spot on. Great points and explanations.

 

[Crippa#9]

I just don't think Lemmey is an AFL player. Too slow and not agile. I hope I'm wrong.

2025 is make or break for him.
When you factor McMahon is only 2 years older, it's chalk and cheese in terms of output thus far.

Agree.
Lemmey kinda reminds me of Josh Schache. Had the size and aerial ability but just lacked any competitiveness.

Needs to get a bit of ‘dawwg’ in him…

(Sorry…been watching too much American football)

Jeez I hope we haven't stuffed up and given white (or one of the others) a false belief they had a train-on gig. That would be cruel.

Possible White is doing some training with the afl boys as part of the vfl program and the journalist got confused.

Cincotta did alot of preseason with the afl guys the year he was picked but was never officially a train on player before getting a spot.

Assume the only difference is the money.
