McDonald has still not gone under 100 for the year.. That is 10 straight games including the NAB!

Yes he is a KPP but he's now also a must to shore up the backline..
I'll be doing everything I can to get him in my side.. no matter the price

I'm really not sure how he got 120 today. A lot of easy possessions, no tackles and his side got pumped. Did anyone see something I didn't?  30 points in last qtr from a couple disposals

Several goal saving marks, running back with the flight, contested etc

His intercept marking is amazing

Intercept marks in D50 are worth 6 pts

95 is his lowest score for the year ;)

I got him a couple of weeks ago and have benefited from back to back 120+ scores :)

Should be 530-540k this week, but with all the bottomed out mids available next week I don't think many people can bring TMac in, which I'm kind of happy about ;)

I actually wanted to get him in after rd3, but injuries etc made me delay getting him by a couple of weeks, but overall it's still nice to have him and hopefully he keeps going :)

In crazy form, knew I should have got him earlier  :'(

I didnt bring him in 2 rounds ago thinking he couldnt possibly keep getting 120's.....i was wrong  :-\ but if i bring him in he will do an ACL 5 minutes after getting reported for king hitting 2 players....

Southstorm

Have to look at him later, can't afford $550k for a defender. Plenty of better bargains to be had across the other lines.

Hey you watch your language or I'll king hit you

Was tossing up between him and Parker. Happy with his score.  (Parker went even better.  Think I'll get him next week). Tmc looks like he'll be a top back this year. There's not many around this year.

Keep waiting for him to fail every week, like Houli, Rance, Hooker all did after good starts.. not happening. Might have to swallow my pride and get him in.

Same but has to wait for mids and forwards first.   probably during byes

Agree with title. He's one I'll be getting but will need to wait...Rocky first and downgrades elsewhere to afford him now.
Had the chance last week when I went Simpson to Pittard...after deciding not to get McDonald....couldn't bring myself to do it in the hour or so I had before the Melbourne game last week. That would've been a hasty decision that worked big time.

Oh how I wish I had the faith to pick him instead of Hibberd three weeks ago. :'(

geoffmack

I looked at him before R1. Thought no way he will score big in a rubbish Melbourne side. Soooo I picked up Hibberd, Simpson, Heater, Newnes.

Don't really know what to say.  :'(  :'(
