[Mr north man]

Not a captains arse hole, count your lucky stars Luke. The club should have passed on you at pick 8.

If it wasn’t for north and their disposition the last 5/6 years, you could have been at another club and delisted before you were 21.

You owe the club. You owe them immensely.

I expect Luke to be a volunteer in the roo shop and on game day for the rest of his life

Your kidding working in the Roo Shop please won’t seem again once his done.
I expect him to be Co Captain for the next 2 years hence his got 2 more years in the AFL.
His only lucky we haven’t got people at our club that are not ruthless that’s his made it so far.
It says a lot about our club and why we at the NMFC the sports biggest joke and if we lose today and next week and finish bottom questions should be asked why and try and explain that to the members.
Sick of the pats on the back and good try attitude by all within the walls at our club Time to Fu:king change or we as a club will be in the position same time next year.

[Gasometer]

Anyway….

Well done Luke McDonald

If there was a Medal for who loves their Club you would win it every year

You got to live the dream most of us dreamt of; playing for the Club you followed as a kid

Congratulations on 200

Lol … Luke McDonald at the end that list just makes me piss myself laughing.

 

[Twinkletoes]

*ing spare me. Private school rich elite * stains.

Yeah, like that soft marshmallow George Wardlaw!

 

[Samsquanch]

Yeah, like that soft marshmallow George Wardlaw!

[Lavy_Panther]

Right from game 1, he’s never shirked a contest. Well done on living out your dream L-Mac.

 

[Karanicolas]

A lot of posters being critical of McDonald, but maybe the club needs to share a large degree of responsibility for him not becoming the player that we thought he would become.

In any event, I think he has found his role under Clarkson, and become far more dependable.

Also, credit to him and Simpkin, for managing to maintain an equilibrium during a difficult period where the team has been so uncompetitive.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Kingy just gave Luke a big hug as players were leaving the ground after the warmup.

 

[DuckYeah]

Yeah, like that soft marshmallow George Wardlaw!

Yeh brain bruises too easily

 

[ferball]

Onya LMac. Big game today.

 

[Reagan Smash]

Battler who looks like a Albatross taking off

 

[Cyber_punk]

Classic Luke today. 2 passages of play that directly led to Richmond goals.

So fitting in his milestone

Get ****ed idiot. You have nothing of any value to say about a bloke who’s actually put something on the line for this club. You have no ****ing idea.

 

[amaz199]

I thought he was pretty good today.

 

[sutcliffe's hotel]

Congrats Luke. Lovely shout-out to the faithful.

Care to define exactly when that was.

I was watching the match at the ground and don't recall that

Or are you just making shit up

 

[Mr north man]

Get ****ed idiot. You have nothing of any value to say about a bloke who’s actually put something on the line for this club. You have no ****ing idea.

Your opinion mate but a lot of people feel the same about McDonald and his played poor in half his games .
If he been at a top club he would been lucky to play half the games his played.

 

[choppy]

Lol … Luke McDonald at the end that list just makes me piss myself laughing.

Do you want me to go through how some of those players ****ed the club either on field or disgraced the club off field?

Luke has more integrity than half the players on that list.
