What Derek Hine said in when he was drafted in 2007 (their first pick @ 31 overall).
"We see John coming in and playing that inside midfielder type role. He’s a really nice size.
"One thing we were mindful of, John’s really got the capacity to go and play in defence as well, so when you’re looking at his role, he’d be a midfielder that goes back.
“He has played forward, and is quite comfortable in the forward 50, but I think we see him as a midfielder/defender"
If Scott rates him we might have a lash at getting him. Turns 22 in Nov.
I harbour this burning desire to get someone for nothing from the Filth (other than our coach

Would really make them spew. Luke who?
Anyway, McCarthy is the right age for the gap in our list, has played 18 games, good size @ 189cm. I seem to recall he isn't too bad?
What do we think?
