Bad jokes aside, I think Oscar would be a good pick at 40.

Ideally I'd like Brayden Maynard, but I'm not confident he will last that long.

I know it's not good business, but I'm really hoping that we move on a guy like Evans so we can use pick 53.

Really? Who'd have known that. I thought it was Tom and James who were related.....

I thought the game was to name players with the same surname who weren't related. Sorry for not picking up on the unadvertised rule change.

Would be a great pick up at 40 and good to have the brothers playing together.

As the AFL website is suggesting that the Western Bulldogs might pick him up with their first pick (#26) then it would be very lucky indeed if Oscar is still there at #40!

Yes. Oscar may have played too well like Zak Jones last year.

Another missed brother ... Grimes, Jones & Wines (Jack Viney's spiritual brother !!)

Sounds a decent prospect and I'm hoping we are able to pick him up with a late pick and let him develop for a few years.

Let him develop for a few years!!! That's way too sensible for us... Farout!! If he isn't pushing for the top ten in the comp by his second year, then we have him in the gun... Development? Pfft... Get real....

Lol..

I'm a self confessed clueness nuffie when it comes to draftees, but I love this from a personal perspective. Happy times in the McDonald family tonight I reckon.

Unbelievable.

Both picked at #53 overall too.

Great get at 53! Was said he would go in the 20-30's, so great to land him with a late pick. He plays just like his older brother Tom, so we add some good depth and add a bit more of a family connection with the club which is nice to see.

I can't believe we got him this late. Amazing judgement from our recruiters. I am so happy with this draft.

I was sure he'd be well gone by pick40, let alone pick 53! Good get dees

Locks tom in as a dee for his whole career you would think, that's a win on it's own

Think the club had a hunch that McDonald would slip to 53. Would've have jumped at him at 40 if otherwise. Great to see another pair of brothers at the Dees, let alone McDonald's!

Dee-lighted

Massive pick up!

Is just as good up forward then back.

This reminds me when Sydney picked up Sam Reid as the defender.

Is his disposal any better than Tom's?

Can he play forward?

Don't get me wrong, I'm really stoked, but just interested to know.

Was hoping big O would fall our way . This kid is a great add and unlike Tom can kick goals!

This is such a lovely pick up.

I know nothing about the qualities of draft picks, but this makes me happy.

Is he a Junior Mac, or Big Mac?

I can see him playing forward, a lot of vision of him doing that on YouTube.

Brotherly love again at the Dees! Makes me all warm and gooey inside

A much better kick. His kicking for a big man is actually quite impressive.

Big boy too. 197cm tall.

Is he a Junior Mac, or Big Mac?

It obvious - Fries

I think the major concern is speed. Key forwards aren't just getting taller but some of them are super fast (ie. Jeremy Cameron, Buddy Franklin).

So Oscar looks nicely suited as a CHB and nicely complementing of Sam Frost. Not sure where that leaves Tommy! But plenty of years until we need to worry about that.

Welcome aboard the Dee train Oscar

Yes and yes, possibly even half back. While he is tall and has grown a heap in the past 18 months, he is incredibly quick over the first few steps for a guy his height, and reads the play well. Unlikely to see any senior footy next year but he is a well grounded young man.
