Ok thanks for your opinion.
If McKercher was pick 40 instead of pick 3 I'm sure you would think differently but anyway

McKercher is an enormous talent and only in his first year. Do you watch other games outside of Port ones?

Do you look beyond draft pick number when assessing impact on games? Are you of the opinion Jimmy Toumpas is a gun and has great things ahead of him?
Do you understand the difference in getting 25 uncontested possessions in the back 50 vs. 25 playing in the middle?

I couldn't give a shit what his draft number was, he is a great young player with enormous talent.

Great, you've pointed out that he plays as a loose half back who takes all the kick ins, and therefore racks up shit loads of uncontested possessions and rebound 50s.

Jase Burgoyne plays wing? He holds his own when it's his turn but he's hardly any more of a contested player than McKercher is.

You haven't watched Jase Burgoyne if you don't think he is a contest player.
He is just about the best pound-for-pound contest player I have ever seen.

Yes, I've never watched the kid who is one of my favourite players and who I've been relentlessly advocating for since his debut.
You're criticising McKercher's selection because he's an outside back flanker. He's named on the ****ing back flank! Why would they name Burgoyne at half back over McKercher because Burgoyne is a better midfielder than McKercher is?
I love Jase but your criticism makes no sense. He could've quite fairly and easily taken Rachele or Draper's spot on the bench, but you can't argue that McKercher shouldn't have been picked over him because he's 'only' a back flanker when he was specifically picked on the back flank in the side.

Would take Burgoyne over McKercher as a half back.
Would definitely take Max Michalanney over McKercher as a half back
