What are your expectations for Jordy this year and what would be a good return from him?

I'm hoping Jordy will take on the role that Newy has had in the past and give us drive out of the backline with his pace and accurate foot skills.
I think he will play in every game unless injured and I'm certain he will prove wrong those who didn't want him at the club!

DONT expect too much, otherwise you will be disappointed.
Tell you all whats real funny, no one on this forum would of given a rats backside for him at the doggies, and now he is at punt road, you rate, fair dinkum ::) ::) ::)
He is a dud and a waste of a draft pick.

Dabbling in mind reading now, Jackie.  :D Give it away. Your psychic powers are off.  ;)

I haven't said a thing about McMahon since Richmond recruited him but I can tell you I rated him before he broke into the dogs side. Saw him a couple of times in the VFL and thought he was a class player with silky skills.

To have him hit targets running out of the HB line

After being picked up for pick 19, to appease Tiger fans he's going to have to produce his 2006 form as an attacking defender off half-back pinpointing teammates further upfield. If he struggles like he did last year he could soon become our new whipping boy.

Tell you all whats real funny, no one on this forum would of given a rats backside for him at the doggies, and now he is at punt road, you rate, fair dinkum ::) ::) ::)
He is a dud and a waste of a draft pick.

he isnt a dud imo

just soft, unnacountable, pencil thin and way overpriced

terry would be hoping he comes good or it could get messy

b grade post. offers no reasoning just "He is a dud and a waste of a draft pick", "DONT expect too much, otherwise you will be disappointed" and "fair dinkum ::) ::) ::)" CRAP! but unlike mcmahon, we probobly expect much more from you but we're always left dissapointed.

If jordy can go for jogs up the wing with ball in hand and hit targets downfield then he'll be a great asset. still yet to work out if he's fast or not or its just the illusioon of his little legs taking lots of little steps really fast.

cannot afford another season like last year and i dont rate his kickin in from fullback.

still wish we'd of... no i'll give him a chance at least.

Prefer to actually see him play before writing him off.

We're such a positive lot - NOT  ::)

I believe he will be a great asset if only to allow Newy the freedom to move into the midfield. We need players with skill and excellent delivery and from what I have seen of McMahon he has these qualities. He does seem weak and needs to be feed the ball but every team needs outside players to finish move it forward cleanly.

I think you will find we will be pleased with Jody by the end of the year.

Don't know much about him, I'm waiting to see. I have no expectations yet.

ssomething tells me he wont play off hb, but play a rotating midfeild and hff role.  i dont think he will be used in the same way as he was atthe kennel.  he will be a classy player 4 us
