Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
Oh FFS...I'll do it thennn
i]A PAIR of VFL players will train with St Kilda over the next few weeks as they push their case to be recruited by the Saints.
AFL.com.au has confirmed Collingwood's Tom Jok and Sandringham's Hayden McLean will join the first-to-fourth-year players who return to RSEA Park on Wednesday as the club begins its pre-season.
Jok, 21, is athletic and has impressive endurance, and standing 193cm with an elite leap, he can also help out in the ruck.
Jok lined up in Collingwood's final seven VFL games this year, having also spent time at his VAFA club, St Kevin's Old Boys, where he won the Premier Division premiership.
McLean played 13 matches for St Kilda's affiliate Sandringham and won the Zebras' award for best first-year player.
The 19-year-old can play up forward or in the ruck, standing at 197cm.
The NAB AFL Draft will take place across two days, starting on Thursday, November 22 and finishing the following day.
After the conclusion of the draft on the Friday, the NAB AFL Pre-Season Draft and the NAB AFL Rookie Draft will be held.

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
Jok Jok (Played a few Collingwood VFL games at the end of the year and very athletic).
McClean (Really rate him and played well at Sandy as a ruck/forward. Only 19.)
Might draft or rookie one of them possibly or both.

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
What's the point of 193cm and 197cm tall players. Don't we need to get a back up ruckman who may take over one day?
As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”
St Kilda - At least we have a Crest!

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
McLean was really impressive with Sandy this year!

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
Collingwood fans on BF don’t have much positives to say about JOK... disposal apparently an issue

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
Yep disposal an issue, size an issue (lightly framed for AFL). In the VAFA size not a concern as nobody could catch him but even in the VAFA his disposal quality was questioned.

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
Wasn't impressed with Jok from what i saw in the VFL. McLean on the other hand was very impressive for Sandy. Great contested mark and imposes himself on the game. Maybe a little too similar in terms of role (forward who pinch hits in the ruck) to Marshall but I'd be very happy to rookie him

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
well, that's a shame.
If we put Jake C on the long term injury list (have we already done that?)
we can grab another bloke, we have until Mid-March ?

Cut off is Friday.
I find it disturbing we haven’t added at least one player - it’s not like we haven’t deleted all our duds yet front he list!

Re: Two VFL talls on trial.
Told you McClean can play. Local kid and Sandy boy. Should have taken him at some stage with these new rules.
