Ben Mckinley

Featured Replies

We should seriously look at Ben Mckinley. Was a leading goal kicker at the eagles until Lecras found his feet. Struggled this year at North because of Petrie, but would be a nice fit in our forward line starved of opportunites??

HF: Howe , Watts, Sylvia

F: Jurrah, Mckinley, Petterd...... doesn't look too bad

 

Another mid-sized forward, yep, just what we need!!

This dude's name springs up this time every year on Demonland.

Agree with brocky we don't need another mid-sized forward we already have plenty that offer far more than McKinley ever will see Howe, Petterd, Sylvia, Green.

 

Next


we've got a player already on our list who plays a similar role to McKinley, only they will end 4x the layer McKinley ever will and will play in many more positions. That man is Jeremy Howe.

Fevola sounds better to me.

 

B Grader at best.

No way.

Wow, some contradictions in here. Struggled because of Petrie? What, a tall marking fwd? were there no crumbs to feed off? We would kill to have a Petrie that our crumbers could feed off.

And this, our fwd line is starved of opportunities - great. Get McKinley so he wouldn't have any opportunities at the Dees.

PLease engage brain before typing.

Surely thats why we drafted COOK! He's the bloke who should be FF/CHF moving forward, not some B grader trying his luck at a third club.


Some really intelligent player assessments here.

Some mothers do have em!


I don't think it was 200cm Petrie keeping 185cm McKinley out of the Roos team. More like Aaron Edwards. I don't think that's a great formline.

He's a beautiful kick for goal, but not much else I think. As others have said, we have several other players who play a similar role to McKinley far better than him.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?
