VFL Past #65: Shaun McKernan 🐴 - Returns to the Dons

[Bigjobss]

Only have a couple of episodes left. I'd forgotton how good the one with The Damned on was. The horror movie themed one. Nasty?

Yeh thats the one, absolute pearler!

Such great musical acts, Motörhead to Dexys Midnight Runners.

eth-dog, out of curiosity would you still say that there is literally zero chance that Mckernan could have kicked 40 goals playing full forward for us this season?

At current rate (12 from 7 games, a decent sample size as that is 1/3 of a season) he would have 38 over a 22 game season.

He would be a chance, no certainty, but a chance.

Which is all i was saying back in the preseason. Didn't think it was likely but thought there was a chance he could do it. I'm actually pretty surprised, even though my argument about being at his peak etc seems to be all playing out. I'm not used to getting these things right!

Old VHS rentals for me in the 2000s...FYI if youve got a TV licence all episodes are up on Stan, just rewatched them a few weeks ago.

I ate my television sadly.

I’m saving my “I told you so’s” for when Smack kicks 7 in a finals victory.

I'm not sure which of those two events is more unlikely.

I told you so

Last season you banged on about how pathetic he is as a footballer and said he would be first to be delisted. A year on and you want to give him another contract.

Let him show it first. 1 year is the right deal for what he's produced.

We know you have a hard on for him but a 2 year deal is ridiculous at this point in his career.

We know you despise him with a passion but a 2 year deal will be deserved if he continues to play well.

If you're going to start this targeting Ethan thing again you can stop right now. You know very well he'll bite back hard and then you'll both end up with infractions, given how many times you've been spoken to about it before. Put him on ignore if you don't like what he has to say.

Smack has been drafted, delisted, rookied, re-rookied, upgraded, downgraded, and then barely stayed on the list again last year, in and around his 50 odd games of football in the last ten years. In that circumstance I'd say a hell of a lot more people than just Ethan are mighty conflicted about whether he is or ever will be worth betting on as a footballer.

And eth-dog you can take note of that as well. Don't like it, put him on ignore.

Go back another season and you'll find eth predicted he would be All Australian, maybe McKernan is in eth's good books again?

Big dumb idiot no.1

 

[eth-dog]

This was a bit of everything from him today. Did some absolutely brain dead things but also did a couple of really good things.

 

[Donakebab]

Take the shot in the 3rd FFS Shaun! Should have known both the shot clock and how long remained, if not then get in his ear!

 

[CBombers17]

Wasn't his best game but he's still dangerous and snagged a couple for a pass mark. Gets it going his way a bit and could easilly have kicked 4, instead 2 was an ok return.

Not that different from Joey really but has had a few more season to iron out those wrinkles, I can forgive JD for his occasional overly ambitious plays.
Not too sure what to think about him honestly.

My understanding is the clock didnt run out, the umpire pinged him for wasting time. Is that right?

No the clock definitely ran down.

 

[TheGrizz]

Had his annual brain implosion game today

Back to the VFL thanks
Ill take Stewart.

Are you sure. Think the ump implemented the new play on rule whatever that's supposed to be.

 

[Bombers36]

I thought he was good again n today - made a couple of errors but still kicked 2 goals and competed in the air all day. Surely a 2 year+ deal is coming

At the game, Shaun was almost directly underneath the scoreboard showing the countdown clock, it 100% got down to zero and he was called to play on.
