Permission to train list

[JVT]

Personally I think McCarthy would add some good depth to our midfield.

Is he an inside type of player? Could he push Jackson to the Burgers??? 

[Penelope]

if he did that he would become a hero amongst the tiger faithful.

Hall of famer

To answer your questions JVT.

Yes, he's a hard-at-it midfielder with decent height at 189. A little bit light at 82kg but he's one of those stringy sort of guys.
Pretty tough and strong at the ball, decent decision-making and passable disposal.

Could he push Jackson back to Coburg? Definately, since he would be competing for the bigger inside-mid role against Jackson and Tuck.
Main question would be whether he is taken in front of a mature player from secondary leagues with possibly better skills and at what point.   

[JVT]

GET HIM IN ASAP!!!

WOOOOHOOOO MCCARTHY!!!

Sorry.. been keen for this to happen since I heard he wasn't re-signing at the Pies. Not the brightest footy spark so I get pretty stoked when stuff I tip happens 

Hopefully he puts in the hard yards at training and we give him a spot

Accurate summary this   

[WA Tiger]

FFS here we go again, no one wanted Toovey who has had a heap more game time and is better he of would filled more of a required position within the club.

Now you want a Collingwood reject that we dont need position wise

Give me a break, even costing us nothing we don't need this type of player....we have Edwards...

[Coach]

Tell me more about McCarthy

[Owl]

I am OUTRAGED!  I cannot believe we are contemplating a collingwood reject!

[Dubstep Dookie]

I am OUTRAGED!  I cannot believe we are contemplating a collingwood reject!

Pick him or Jackson Hooter. Don't sit on the fence   

[Loui Tufga]

I am OUTRAGED!  I cannot believe we are contemplating a collingwood reject!

Has to be better than all our Melbourne rejects we seem to be collecting

[Smokey]

if he did that he would become a hero amongst the tiger OER faithful.

Edited for accuracy



 

[Coach]

Yep, certainly a lot of editing being done these days.....
