[Yeahright]

Reckon he'd be a gun in 1987.

why 87 why not now.
have you looked at the height and size of the better performed kpfs in the comp
franklin cloke walker, podsiadlly, brown,pavlich, lynch, patton petrie and on it goes.
just about every club has a tall fwd of mckenzies height and sizearound the 195cm/100kg mark. at last we at least have one on our list.
i find it amazing that you think these types are a thing of the past when the reality is blokes around mckenzies height and size have been and continue to be the better fwds in the game.
me i m pleased we finally have one like him now we need to see if he can play at the level.

Look at the other attributes those players have like Franklins agility and clokes tank etc. IF and I mean IF he has no tank and little agility and is purely a lead and mark player he may struggle but in 1987 he would've been a gun . See how well his tank develops and hopefully we can get him in the team nice and early and see how he goes, I reckon he's got the tools to be a beauty

He had a beep test of 13.2 which is pretty good for someone his size.  He is a top basketballer and so has great lateral movement which is required in the game.

He s only one season back from a stint at basket ball, 35 goals in 10 games. Most good judges reckon in 12 months he would have been top 10 easy. Fj has vision , this kid has the tools to be a boss up forward , brace yourselves

That's why I emphasised the 'if' because I've heard varying things. I heard about his beep test but not from a valid source (could look it up probably) but also heard he has poor endurance from other invalid sources. Was more just backing up the comment that he'd be a gun in 1987.

[Phil Mrakov]

He's a bit of a Levi Casboult. Can't kick or do anything other than take a pack mark

[Diocletian]

Regardless if how he peforms, tipping at the very least, he'll seriously challenge back to back reigning champion Liam McBean for the title of  "most discussed & debated reserves player" next year- and it'll be mainly by people who only see the reserves when our matches are televised and/or streamed,  if they do at all.

At least the vfl side should have a decent, young, kpf

Sounds like they'd compliment each other too

Play him back pocket to brush up his defensive game.

Lol at the segment before McKenzie's - Connor Menadue won a year's supply of Slurpees.  Should make him an ideal weight by 2016!!
