It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

🥰💞😍

Not missed a game since his debut in round 1, 2023.

Resilient, tough, classy.  Smoothest mover since TJ. 

🙏🫰🙏🫰🙏 his contract is extended VERY soon!

Potentially the most intriguing playing on our list. He has all the tricks and will only get better with another pre-season.

I still remember watching his debut live at the 'G at the start of 2023 when he'd seemingly come from nowhere after he had a great pre-season. Straight away you could see that he was a smooth operator. How about the baulk on Libba at 1:17? 👇👇

This year, you could see that his teammates were looking to get the ball in his hands more often when we were exiting 50. He took some great scalps as a small defender as well.

He looked a little bit lost when we moved him into the midfield but I think the potential of him playing there is huge.

Hmm not sure he looked ‘at home’ in the midfield

 May be the best half back who is a genuine defender in the competition tho - always gets the tougher jobs and is rarely beaten

Judd McVee has really shone in our back 6, I also hope we stick with Judd down back we were a bit desperate for mids this year that will change in ‘25 and why cut our opponents a break when we have one of the best and smartest half backs in the league. 

Highly rate him as a small defender but wasn’t impressed with his midfield trial -  8 possessions as a midfielder against Collingwood.

48 straight games from his debut is pretty damn impressive.
