News McBean and Marcon chopped

[rfctiger90]

400 game flecther says hi

Lol? Comparing McBean to Fletcher? Serious?

 

[_RT_]

Not in the slightest bit concerned about it. McBean never struck me as being what others said he was. At his size he should be clunking marks and kicking goals, not acting like a rover to score. Might get by at VFL level but not going to cut it at senior level.

 

[sandeano]

A shame that it didn't work out for either. But at least Marcon didn't cost us anything.

 

[SnakeMan86]

McBean's biggest problem is was playing for a team that has one of the worst structures in the competition.
We were second last for Inside 50's.
We were third last for Clearances.
We were last for tackles.
We were last for 1%'ers.

Of all our forwards, the only reason Riewoldt actually looked good was because he was involved a lot more up the ground. If a two-time Coleman winner can't perform well, how the hell is Vickery/Griffiths/McBean or anyone else we try in the position supposed to?

This 1000 times

 

[tigs2010]

Your taking 1 and 1 and jumping to 3. Why the interest? Maybe they'll rookie him?

He already was a rookie. Hes gone for good.

 

[Caveman68]

He's done nothing. That's his problem.

He showed more in late 2015 than most others who turned up on Saturday. Good luck to him. He can go to a club where they can develop properly.

Will look fwd to the bean running around for Aberfeldie next year

And he'll prob earn more for doing so

 

[RunningBounce]

McBean making way for big Cloke?

Absolutely. Our VFL team will need a full forward now.

 

[Caveman68]

he is shit and not due to ability simply due to his build, not an AFL body in the slightest.

What rubbish. AFL is a game to suit all body types.

 

[RunningBounce]

I sincerely hope hope no players read this, but in case McBean or Marcon do, thanks for your services and good luck with the rest of your careers.

They'll both be playing footy somewhere next year.

I reckon if was draft by hawthorn he would look bigger kinda like gunstan. Maybe ww didnt feed him enough? Who was he dietition?

The Richmond (and Essendon) jumper makes players look smaller. The sash is so dominant that it 'hides' the muscularity and body development.

Not to say McBean wasn't extremely skinny for an AFL footballer.

I really need to wear my Tiger jumper all the time....

 

[TigermanM2]

Maybe victims of circumstance. We're supposedly getting rid of a heap of coaches, and one of the guy that needs the most development (Bean) gets the chop too. I thought a bit stiff.

For a moment forget about how bad our development has been because that is unquestionable but lets look to the future. Unfortunately we don't have an unlimited bucket of development hours that we can put into the team.

McBean has been on our list for 4 years.

So there is McBean who need development and

Rioli
CEllis
Markov
Menedue
Drummond
Short
Castagna
Chol
Soldo
Broad

plus the guys who are senior to the above, have talent but still need a lot of work put into them if you want them to take the next step (Vlas etc)

Plus the draftees from this year.

I would much rather spend time developing the above talent than spending more time on McBean.

 

[Nursie]

Marcon and McBean gone. Is that it?

 

[TigermanM2]

Marcon and McBean gone. Is that it?

No.

There will be other players that the club will shop around/try and tie into deals and if nothing comes of it they will be chopped.

A shame McBean never really came on with us. Not sure if he'd make it elsewhere but wish him well. Still got to live his dream of playing for the yellow and black which is pretty cool.

Marcon a bit stiff. Would have kept him on the rookie list for another year. Helps our VFL side out with a mature player at that level. Was arguably unlucky to be dropped from the seniors too as he had played decently up to that point IMO.
