Connor McDonald plays for the Stingrays looks a likely type.

8. Connor MacDonald

As a goalkicking midfielder, McDonald has several weapons. A strong contested ball winner and tackler, McDonald is a high-volume ball winner and combines this with acceleration, a high work rate and good skills. When used forward of centre, MacDonald presents an aerial marking threat and hits the scoreboard, averaging one goal per game so far in the NAB League despite playing predominantly through the midfield.

Sounds great to me.

Maybe I should offer my services to the club

Interesting that in June last year, Sonsie was ranked the 3rd best player in the draft. Injury saw him drop into the mid 2nd round.

I’ve heard some good things about Connor McDonald.

Apparently Hawks and Brisbane in to him big time.

Well I don't want to boast but I think I might have been on the money with this kid.

Same draft that Geelong got Oliver Dempsey as a rookie pick.
