Player Watch #42: Kallan Dawson - [NMFC.com] - KD signs a 1-yr extension - Roo until end '25

[DuckYeah]

I don’t believe theres much finger crossing needed dude

 

[King Corey]

Good news. Hope he can stay healthy and keep up his recent rate of improvement.

 

[amaz199]

The only MSD pick thus far that hasn't been a bust pre-2024.

Good on him.

 

[Only Forwards]

Has he ever played an actual game with his brother before or is this the first time suiting up together?

 

[roos 10]

I don’t believe theres much finger crossing needed dude

Maybe but just want to see it

 

[Merlin007]

Good news.

I thought putting him back in the 1s after a single VFL game indicates that he's well-regarded by the coaching staff.

 

[Possession]

Great news. Really looking forward to having Kal back in the side.

 

[Nylex]

Great effort From Kal earning a new contract… hope he gets a good run at it and he gets to 150 games from here.

 

[ChairmanZia]

It's very good news.

A good solid defender for us over the next 5 years.

 

[Hatchy1992]

Great news! Hopefully Clarkos told him to relax now that he's futures secured, work hard in the second half of the season and next and earn a new longer term contract.

 

[ChairmanZia]

He should earn a 3 year contract if he could hold his form up.

 

[Errol Street]

Great news! Hopefully Clarkos told him to relax now that he's futures secured, work hard in the second half of the season and next and earn a new longer term contract.

err 1 year wasnt it?

 

[Hatchy1992]

err 1 year wasnt it?

Sorry probably wasnt clear. He's got 18 months now, so I'm saying now between now and end of next season earn that longer contract.

 

[Horizons_00]

Awesome news!

 

[CURVE]

Good news, I think he could be a very good KPD in the near future.

 

[ChairmanZia]

If he can maintain his form, then his next contract (end of 2025) would be like a 3 year deal to cement his place.

Ideally, he takes over from corr in a few years.

 

[amaz199]

He is the Corr replacement I reckon.

Has the wheels and height. Both crucial for the modern game.

 

[shinboner magic]

loses to many 1/1 contests where he should loll the ball - a lot of air swings

 

[bennymate]

Blanketed Darling tonight, he is going to be a very solid defender for us in the years to come.

 

[Nylex]

Mid Season draftee!!! Holy smoke

 

[tazaa]

Can defend.
So nice seeing a backman be able to beat his opponent and use the ball well.

 

[shintemaster]

At worst a solid 3rd banana and you'd take that any day out of the MSD. Might be more, time will tell but he does plenty right.

 

[Devington]

Happy to see him slide back into the team and deliver right away. Also happy with the 1 year extension, if this week's performance is his regular then he could earn a longer extension before this year is out.

He will get extended next season.

 

[Liam Boy]

Cops a week. Shame, we've looked a lot better with him in the side. Who replaces him with Logue probably still a few weeks away?
