Re: Rd 23: Pre Game Investigations: Carlton vs Essendon Reply #30 – August 24, 2016, 11:05:02 am Been calling for McKay to get a senior game for a few weeks, be great if he does debut this week.Best of all, it will mean that all five draftees from last year will have played a senior game in their first year at the club which has to be a major positive to any other potential draftees or trades.This week, let's smash them into oblivion, finish the season on a high and then get the player delistings started next week.

I doubt whether young Harry qualifies atm? Quote Selected

Re: Rd 23: Pre Game Investigations: Carlton vs Essendon Reply #39 – August 25, 2016, 12:10:05 pm A must win game this week, I HATE losing to the Bumbers.I was going to go to this game, but it's an EFC home game and I refuse to financially support those drug cheats.I don't know if Harry Mackay has earned a senior spot yet, it wouldn't bother me for him to wait til next year to debut in the seniors.Another game into SOJ and Cuningham will be extra experience and good for them leading into next year.

Re: Rd 23: Pre Game Investigations: Carlton vs Essendon Reply #42 – August 25, 2016, 06:28:48 pm Quote from: laj – on August 23, 2016, 10:15:12 pmDon't have a link but got this quote from a Carlton Facebook supporters page....."Teenage key forward Harry McKay is likely to make his AFL debut against Essendon on Saturday after an impressive display for the Northern Blues at Ikon Park last Saturday. If McKay, the No. 10 pick in last year's NAB AFL Draft, plays it will mean all of the Blues' 2015 draftees have been given a chance at the elite level this season. McKay, who was sidelined for the first half of the season with a stress fracture in his back, moved well despite having limited opportunities against Williamstown and kicked a goal. Jason Tutt was outstanding, gathering a team-high 32 touches. - Howard Kotton" Outstanding? Really? Howard must have just looked at the stat sheet rather than the productivity.McKay is not ready or fit enough yet but I not would be strongly opposed to giving the kid a game in a dead-rubber final round.
