St Kilda sizes up McMahon
Greg Denham | August 12, 2009
TEN days ago Jordan McMahon achieved every player's dream by kicking the winning goal after the siren at the MCG to guide lowly Richmond to its fifth victory of the season.
Next year he could be playing for his third club, the 2009 premiership favourite, St Kilda.
Despite being contracted at Punt Road for another season, the last of a lucrative three-year deal that lured him away from the Western Bulldogs at the end of 2007, McMahon could be headed to Moorabbin via the AFL's player-exchange period in October.
While neither the Tigers nor the Saints have been in direct contact over McMahon's future, it is understood both clubs could mutually decide the fate of the 26-year-old, who was the Bulldogs' first selection, at No10 overall, in the 2000 national draft.
The Saints are known to be keen on him as a back-up player, which fits snuggly into coach Ross Lyon's philosophy of having confidence in recycled players from rival clubs.
But before any deal is struck, there's the matter of McMahon's $320,000 salary next year, and if the Saints remain interested in a trade, almost certainly for a draft selection, they will require the Tigers to pay a portion of his 2010 contract.
St Kilda's initial inquiry into McMahon has been made through his agent Alex McDonald.
Saints list manager Matthew Drain has intimate knowledge of McMahon, having worked at Whitten Oval as the Bulldogs' general manager of football operations before joining St Kilda late in 2007.
McMahon played 114 games with the Bulldogs between 2001 and 2007 before joining the Tigers.
Richmond gave up selection No19 in the draft for him and in return with that pick, the Dogs secured the promising Callan Ward, who has already played 22 senior games in his first two years, including 16 this season.
During the same period, McMahon has played 31 for the Tigers, but only nine this season, where he has spent many weekends finding touch in the VFL.
McMahon has played the past four games, under caretaker coach Jade Rawlings, and has averaged 21 possessions, including a 26-disposal performance in round 16 against North Melbourne.
The unbeaten Saints have had enormous success this year with a number of recycled players from other clubs, including ruckmen Michael Gardiner and Steven King, Adam Schneider, Sean Dempster, Jason Gram, Farren Ray and Zac Dawson, who are all currently ranked in their best 22.
Former Brisbane player Colm Begley played his first game for the Saints last Saturday, in their win over Hawthorn, after 29 games in three seasons with the Lions.
After just one trade was completed last year -- Robbie Warnock from Fremantle to Carlton -- involving a first- or second-round national draft selection, this season's top-finishing clubs are expected to be more active.
Because the national draft talent pool thins markedly after about the top 10 selections, it is anticipated that clubs with lower-order selections in the first round are preparing to trade first-round picks to recruit experienced talent from other clubs.
A number of club recruiting scouts this week told The Australian there was a "distinct gap" in the available teenage draft talent after about the first 10 selections.
Meanwhile, out-of-favour West Coast forward Ashley Hansen, 26, is set to join teammate Mark Seaby in seeking a trade to another club in search of better opportunities to play on a more regular basis.
The 2006 premiership key forward has played 76 of a possible 139 games in his six years at the Eagles, including nine matches this season, but he has not been a member of West Coast's victories in the past two rounds over Essendon and the Bulldogs.

What a beautiful thing to wake up and read. :lol We'll take what we can get.
Gee, a first round pick would be lovely :P

Mustbe April Fools day

Mustbe April Fools day
thats what I thought. Its gotta be a joke surely.

OMFG this has to be the dumbest poo l ever read.
This is the level journo's have gone to write a false story.
-
Would be the funniest thign to happen in footy in 2009 if true
Jordie - you would go with all our blessing :rollin
-
on a serious note, its not uncommon for journos to "'talk up"" players that they know to try and increase there currency..
-
OE you must have a lot of time on your hands to dream up a story like that!! :lol
We'll take Armitage or a 3rd rounder please Saints!!
-
PINCH ME!! CAN SOMEONE PINCH ME IM IN SHOCK
GOTTA TO BE A JOKE, IF NOT XMAS HAS COME EARLY

Happy to buy Greg Denham a beer or 30.

Hey TM, ssshhhh. We all know the truth but if they want to pump up his tyres to another club then let them I say. :shh
-
:lol Old Smokey :thumbsup :bow
-
I would take McMahon + 4th round to Saints for a third round pick. Use his salary to front load Deledio's contract.
-
I will believe it when I see it...
-
id doubt this would materialise,...theyd have him for nothing, we'd be better served retaining him than pick 50 +...Id be interested in McGuuire to either use up forward or on trade in 3 way deal as he would have suitors elsewhere...all depends on view of NEW coach...he seems surplus though with edwards growing in stature and andy collins to find a place in the side
-
How about we pay his ENTIRE salary for next year in return for their 1st round pick plus our 3rd rounder.
Given the talent is gone after Pick 10, they won't need it that much anyway
-

Yep sounds good to me ;D. A trade off. The more we pay in salary the higher the pick we get in return. We (Rich) give you (St K) a ready-made player you want at no monetary cost to the Saints in exchange for pick 17. Somehow I think the Saints will want to keep their first pick and possibly offload their 2nd rounder (pick 33) but who knows when no one thought any club would be silly enough to be interested at all in Jordie :rollin. I wouldn't say no to either. The more picks and the less duds the better :thumbsup.
-
To be honest, I'd take a swap of our 2nd & 3rd rounders for their 1st & 2nd rounder
It would effectively take him off our hands and bring each of our picks forward by (most likely) only 2 places.
-
We will have so much room in TPP that we could probably carry paying McMahons wage. Paying Half - I would ask for Saints 2nd rounder, paying his full salary approx: $300 Id be asking for there 1st Rounder - pick 17 ... although in the end, I cant see it happening.
-
We wont get a 5th rounder for him, :banghead
-
Mcmahon = Ferrero Rocher
for the tip both of em

That's probably the more realistic scenario but I wouldn't want to be paying too much of his salary if that's the case.
-

they wont get a trade for him ;D they know his not AFL standard :lol they already learnt that taking Fiona Fiora :rollin
our great recruiting has stuck us with this dud. McMuffin knew he was getting a red apple when they give him 3 year contract.
What club other than Richmond give new drafts long contracts who have played VFL most of the year, discarded by another AFL club.
ONLY RICHMOND :rollin
-
This is exciting news! If it eventuates, regardless of the pick we receive, I believe we will have at least obtained something from a player that we will more than likely move on at the end of next season regardless. A pick swap and half his wage would be a good deal - say our 3rd for their first plus $150 grand of his salary - particularly given our salary cap room next year.
Great news but I will not hold my breath until I see if it transpires in October.

Sounds reasonable to me :thumbsup
His dad Cuddles played for us

McMahon for Ball?
Nup. Ball will be nearing the end by the time our list matures and he's been injury prone. Rather have the pick.
-
We will get pick 85 for him, he is worth ZIP
-
We will get a third or a swap of seconds, or maybe a player swap.

I reckon the Tigers would trade you for a 2nd round pick. Then you could take your whinging somewhere else. Jack off.
-
If the Saints offered anything you'd take it
If part of the deal is we pay aprt of the salary then you'd want a minimum a 3rd rounder
Actually if they bring in that you can trade rookies - I'd look at the Saints rookies and trade him for one of those plus their 3rd round pick :thumbsup

Remember this.
The saints picked up Steve King with pick 89.
They aint going to trade much for a guy who is verging on being hopeless and is a VFL playerat best
-
lol is this bogus thread still going. :rollin
wake up people McMuffin is not going anywhere. ;D we are stuck with him
article was writtern to generate website traffic to & add to the circus we are. :banghead
remember the more clicks of the mouse is generating money in the greedy circle ;D

Denham on SEN reckons it could be one of the first deals done in trade week! :-\

Thats a good point, but even if we got next to nothing (e.g. give them our 4th round take their 3rd) for him it is a very good deal. Gets at least part of his wages off the bill. Where we spend it is another matter ....
-

Why? because we would be falling over ourselves to get the paperwork signed? ;D
-
OMFG who St-Kilda going to drop to fit him in when they got 12 better players in the 2nds.
He does not even fit thier game plan wake up. he never mans up & the way they run & carry his mistakes would kill them.
He looks like his got some sickness his that frail :rollin he looks a bit like Michael Jackson reborn ;D so beat it ;D
-
He would fit in well at the saints where his outside running is needed and his kicking into the forward line doesn't have to be pin point .
Unfortunately we have too many similar to him.

pin point kicking WTF
you know what l will pick out all this season game highlights of his turnovers in the off season & put them together on you tube calling it McMuffins Muff-ups :rollin
now he aint in many games this season but it will take up some time ;D
-
The media interviewed Ross Lyon today and he said he's unaware of an interest in McMahon from them. He said he hasn't actually watched Jordie much this year. All he knows is Jordan can run and he's highly paid :P.

He is not saying McLovin's kicking is pinpoint, the opposite in fact
-
l know that ;D McMuffin when he even trys to hit someone up, It hits the ground at thier feet, or rarely makes the required distance
l just so shocked how this guy got drafted by us & the money his cost. He was meant to replace Bowden in the backline & stop our turnovers coming out of defence :rollin
he be on the bench this week watching how Joel the champ goes about his job

Gracie you are right, and we should be talking him up as well.
I have always thought that not only is he a pin point kick but he is as tough as nails.

article in h/sun today about trading also said saints have genuine interest in mcmahon.
-
after todays effort id trade him for a wet mop.

-
His trade value is worth ZIP.
he is a complete wacko who shouldnt be at an AFL club
-
l'm sure everyone was watching him yesterday & went home laughing.
couldnot hit poo if he tryed :rollin
Turned the ball over constantly :rollin
Missed a set shot goal like the one the wind blew through against Melbourne :rollin
had a clear shot on goal & belted it out on the full no-one near him :rollin
get 330k for that OMFG ;D
-
Lyon mentioned in his aftermatch media conference that they will trade for players as well as draft them. Can we convince him that Jordie is better than Ralph Clarke, Dempster or Milne lol.

For sure, McMahon is a proven game-winner after all

For their first round pick eh jezza ;D
-
The Mcmhaon going to the tigers Rumour is just as bad as tommy Hawkins leaving the cats. Haha no worries. Cats won because of their hard bodies today and their players stood up when it counted. The last thing the saints is a hack like mcmahon who goes missing 90% of the game. Won't happen I'm sad to say
-
Hahahaha Daniel you beat me to the punch Daniel by my post being longer than yours. :thumbsup
If St Kilda had won today I would have thought that Jordy was a better chance of being traded to the Saints as a top up to their list, however there will be some soul searching at Moorabin and the style of play the Saints play is certainly not indicative to the way Jordy plays.
Geez if Jordy was playing off the half back line for the Saints today the Cats would have won the game much earlier. Hence I feel he won't be there based on their physical hard tackling play which Jordy is renowned on avoiding.
Unfortunantely for them the depth of the Saints bottom 6 were woeful today and Jordy would only make them look a little worse. I tend to think after today the Saints may pass on him based that they will feel they may have 1 or 2 years left in their premiership window whereas if they had won they would have had nothing to lose and possibly with the pressure of the club they might have had 1 or 2 free hits to add to their success.
I hope I am wrong but it may end up being our call to either honor his final year or paying him out to get rid of him cos frankly after todays tough tackling brutal final Jordy won't be on any clubs radar. Geelong's half back line kept the Saints out in the second half and kept Geelong in the game in the first. Jordy has none of the characteristics and game of Enright Corey Milburn that can stand up to the rigors and pressure of a GF.
-
At least Jordie could've kept up in pace with Byrnes than Ralph Clarke did who was burned off 3 times in the last quarter. Let's talk it up people for the RFC's sake lol ;D.
-
Yeah Clarke had a shocker, but when has Jordy chased? Byrnes would have been on the Southern Stand wing on his own at least Clarke was there and was not good enough, Jordy would have just zoned off. We'll be stuck with him for another season. He is our trash and won't be anybody elses treasure. :banghead
-
Lyon mentioned in his aftermatch media conference that they will trade for players as well as draft them. Can we convince him that Jordie is better than Ralph Clarke, Dempster or Milne lol.
Reckon they'll be after strong bodies. Geelongs wrested control of the game. Too many to mention. McMahon gives them nothing.
-
Oh please is this topic still going
McMahon is finished as a AFL footballer.
He is one of the worst footballers l seen ever.
No-one at any other clubs will even be talking about him :rollin
-

McMahon going to the tigers? He's already there!
-
Reckon the Saints might be interested in N. Brown....
Milne and Schneider aren't big game performers.

Would think based on yesterday that Jordie would have been as useful as Farren Ray :thumbsup
So based on that let's get this deal done and for the betterment of the St Kilda Footy Club who I deeply care for (as I may have mentioned in other posts over the last week) I think we (the RFC) should send Jordie on his way :thumbsup
On Brown NG - I see Blue skies for him ;D

you kidding me your comparing Farren Ray to McMahon thats joke of the season
Farren Ray has been very consistant all year & is kept quite on the big day :rollin so were others but to have a shot at him is below the belt
McMahon cant even play good football on any given day let alone being consistant in the VFL is hard for him
If he is considered to even play AFL for Richmond next year then l will ring the media & publicly cut up my membership next to the Jack Dyer Statue for all to see what the club is doing punishing the supporters with his pathetic display of child football & l will go barrack for another club because seriously he makes me ill :lol
-
Havent you already said you wouldn't get a membership for next year?

WP, Farren is miles better than Jordy.
Farren had an ordinary day, his year has been terrific, you might want to look at his contested marks for the year.
Jordie = :chuck

Because they'll find some way to pay him outside the cap?

Jack, Jack when the pressure was on yesterday Farren went missing just like Jordie does. Ray has a had a good year there is no disputing that but like so many Saints yesterday he went missing on the biggest stage .....
If the Saints want him (Jordie) and it appears Lyon rates him we must do everything in our power to ensure Jordie makes his way to Moorabbin, Frankston or Seaford or where ever the hell they call home now ;D in this upcoming trade period. It is our duty :rollin :rollin
-
Been to a few functions during the week with employees from other clubs, If Saints are interested its nearly laughable.
Its a joke thats he is on an AFL list

I think you need some perspective, a bit of Pot-Kettle-Black going on right there.

if l walked into the RFC & brought a full membership for 2010 & destroyed it in front of the President the Richmond football club would care
Its showing that a loyal supporter who like thousands of others buy memberships to watch D grade football instead of Professional football. UGLY FOOTBALL at that
l'm tired of watching players who cant think & show skills of average footballers when supporters are paying huge money to watch it & the club never fixes the real problems
This ugly football is presented to the supporters by Jordan McMahon that l reckon l would wipe out with a good bump cause his scrawny & useless & how he got a game without being dropped before a inform Bowden & Tuck shows Richmond have no idea at all.
seeing what he did 2 times in front on tackles in a game made me sick in the stomach as he was brushed aside like a rag doll
Reminds me of players like Fiora & Pettifer pulling out of contests & thats why we are pathetic cause most of them players are not hardball getters.
They not very good receivers cause the team has not got many good kickers. Take a look a Rewoldt, Richo, Morton in our forward line :lol Oh please they kick winners every week
Watch what happens when Tuck leaves cause McMahon is a receiver who stays out of the ruff & whos going to be the blockers now
Tuck is one of our strongest players who has a brain & could be used up forward cause he can kick, but then you got players like McMahon trying to hit them up.
When he turns it over his opponant is waiting to receive the ball by himself in the goal square :rollin great player & it hurts me that l pay my membership each year to watch players like that get payed $300,000+ each year. l could show you kids from Gippy Power who would wipe the field with him & have stronger bodies & better skills.
No club would pee on McMahon & l dont want to see players like him even playing the game, his not a AFL footballer & the Bulldogs showed that with not playing him.
WHY DOES RICHMOND always recruit players who linger in lower leagues cause they cant develope youngsters so how they going to get a hack going again :banghead :banghead
Dont ever under-estimate me as a loyal Richmond supporter. l payed my money since the 70's & we have watched in skill & bad coaching the last 5 years has done my head in. :banghead

as i said before this thread Mcmahon thread should be closed. The Saints wouldn't go near this dud.
They are much smarter than that.
I still wonder how Francis Jackson is still employed at the RFC after being part of the recruiting campaign for this hack.
the same guy who was responsible with Miller for the recruiting gems of JON and Hughes
he should have been the first to go by Hardwick
-
and keeping injured players who give no value for years when we have missed out on blooding & drafting new youngsters who could have been all fit Coughlans.
Thats why Richmond always go broke cause they have DHeads running a multi million dollar buisness and always make bad calls & cant get the results they want cause the decision makers are only there to bleed the club of money for themselves. Benny Gale will change all that ;D

Anyone who remotely thinks McMahon would have performed better than Farren Ray on Saturday, or McMahon could have played as well as Farren has this year needs their head checked.
Raph Clarke on the other hand. . . . :shh :whistle

If there is one guy on an AFL list who remotely compares to that of Mcmuffin it is one Raph Clarke.
so slow so weak in tackles and seriously i cant understand how he got a game on Saturday.

Robbo suggests we swap McMahon for Raf Clarke :help
[Comment From James V]
Will the Saints really take McMahon?? Could the Football Gods be so kind to Richmond??
[Robbo]
Jimmy, Jordan was linked with Saints six weeks ago. What if you swapped Raf for McMahon? The Saints need some quick run out of back half

How about we take the draft pick and they can have McMahon and we will settle on that. :pray
Sainters can keep Raf too. :help
-
Raf Clarke is the only person in the AFl who rivals Mclovin as the most useless player on any AFL list.
Cant believe he got a gig on Grand Final day.
Loved his half hearted chase in the centre of the G on Grand Final day. Thats typical Jordy stuff right there
Id rather have 21 players on the field than play with either of these 2 hacks

St Kilda, which yesterday declared it would not be a big player in next week's player-exchange period, has gone cold on its mid-season interest in Richmond defender Jordan McMahon, who has another season left on a three-year contract.

I assume the word "defender" is being used loosely (Pardon the pun)!
-
Defender , isnt it the snail and slug repellant ?
No wonder he zones off

i think you may find him staying put.

shattering if that is true!

If Melbourne win a flag in the next decade they can thank Jordy for slotting that shot at goal after the siren in round 18 after missing two sitters earlier that match.He will be remembered more fondly by them. :help
Unfortunantely he will stay with us on our list. Not the type of player that has the attributes that Dimma will give a hoot about unfortunantely. Just one more year lads. :banghead

lol!

All jokes aside, if he does stay, regardless of the past Hardwick will not tolerate players who do not put their bodies on the line and win their own ball. So if Jordy fails to change this part of his game he will spend a year playing for the Burgers before being delisted.
I hope the Saints change their mind and take him :pray

I wonder if StKilda would be interested in Tuck to replace Luke Ball now he's requested a trade
-
Shane Tuck & Jordan McMahon -----> Third Round Pick.
:pray
-
Shane Tuck & Jordan McMahon -----> Third Round Pick.

Both for StKilda's pick 48? That's ridiculous.

Is it? Given what McMahon is being paid and that he may well be playing next season at Coburg then I read that trade as effectively Shane Tuck for pick 48. I'd rather 32, but would take 48.

Pick 48 for Tuck would be about his value in this trade - we are throwing in McMahon as a free 'upsize'.

I dont often agree with you GB but on this occasion I am in ageeance with your point of view.
-
What picks do the Saints have now? Would we swap McMahon for pick 60 they received for offloading Xavier Clarke?
-
I have a loss of memory, :lol what pick did the "'geniuses"'at punt road give up for this clown in the first place? :banghead
-
Saints have pick 32 still. We could upgrade either pick 44 or 51 to that.
Can you put a sock in it for a change, Jackstar? Wallace is gone. Miller is gone. King, Royal and Rawlings are gone. Stop bringing up negatives all the time. New start.
-

McMahon the biggest blunder of the decade :rollin never had 1/4 of Bowdens skill to replace him ;D
-
If they offered 60 we should take it in a flash.
-
take any Draft Pick for McMahon!
come on Richmond! ANYTHING!!!
:pray
