Past #23: Ben McKay - gone to * as RFA - NMFC awarded Band 1 pick #3 compo

[see see]

*As of today.

I'm confused. Is he going to * or Hawthorn?

 

[Chadwiko]

Hawks probably figured if their first round pick is going to be impacted, they may as well benefit from it.

Smart, tbh.

Nobody ever said he was a smart man.

So Ben wants to stop wearing our lovely colours and wear that putrid poo and wee top ? I suppose it may suit as some would suggest he has been shit at times this yr .

 

[speedy]

Hawthorn.

I'd rather it not be the Hawks. Incentive not to reach band 1, and could walk him to the PSD.

RFA - Goes to draft from memory. Not sure the Hawks want to be spending their <5 draft pick on McKay.

Edit: BTW checked and their next pick is past 18... they won't be getting him via the draft. Another club would value him before that.

Well, I don't think anyone can say lack of winning games was a factor in him leaving. He won't be winning that much more at Hawthorn than with us over the next couple of years

Also Hawthorn's facilities are perhaps worst out of the Victorian based teams.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

The media absolutely frothed over Hawthorn.

They won seven games. Three of which were WC/NM.

Hardly a future juggernaut.

Hawthorn board is saying it because he wants to play forward...unfortunately we all know how it turned out for him with us when he played forward.

That’s a twist Alfred Hitchcock wouldn’t have even come up with.

That’s funny.

A hawks poster used us playing McKay forward as proof of us tanking.

Going from the 2nd worst team to the 3rd worst

I once saw McKay miss back to back goals from the top of the goal square at an intraday club.

He’s a terrible terrible shot for goal. Hence he was shifted back in the vfl.

Couldn’t possibly be true

There haven't been a lot of free agent eligible players who have held off contract talks to after the season and have remained.

Josh Kelly, Andrew Gaff, Dusty Martin come to mind!

Martin re-signed on the eve of the finals.

Hahahaa this is a ****ing joke right?

Tom Browne reporting Swans have overtaken * in the race for BMac 'with a huge offer' - obviously Browny has been too busy today to read BigFooty!

Hahahaa this is a ******* joke right?

Lets start the All-UnAustralian with players who left to play roles they are shithouse at:

McKay at FF
CCJ in the ruck
Zach Williams as a midfielder

Either that or he hasn't texted either his actual father (Jeoff) or his daddy (Andrew Ireland) yet today
