Matthew Kennedy

Post: # 1882988Post footynut »

He's just been delisted from Carlton, in the intention to rookie. Should we ask the question and offer him a spot on the main list.... would be better than pick 68???

Decent player but pass for me.
Good size, strong hard worker, not really a forward and not really a mid IMO.

Up against Steele, Crouch, Jones, Ross, Dunstan & Bytel as an inside mid and Membrey as a medium forward.
Can't see him being better than back up and I don't think we need to clog the list with back up that will come at a cost.

Agree he's probably better than a late pick.

Carlton have already advised him that they'll rookie list him for 2021.

And he's not in Carlton's best 30 players, let alone ours.

The question I keep asking myself for experienced players is
“Are they an upgrade on what we already have?”
In his case, I would say no. Dunstan can barely make the best 22, and he would be a clear upgrade on Kennedy. He now has unrealised potential at 2 clubs, 1 of which is struggling and needs big bodies mids, but still don’t want him. That tells me a lot.

Isn't he the dude from GWS?

Or is it the umpire?

An umpire could be handy, stationed in forward 50.

Could give himself a couple of frees every quarter and bag a lazy 8. Game changer.

Carltoon have tried him everywhere and he can't get a spot. Last stop was as a defensive forward - still no good. Cripps needs a big body around him for protection and MK is still no use. Also has the turning circle of the Queen Mary.

Hard pass on him

I thought the Pelican had gone elsewhere.
Did they refuse him entry ?

Let us play Bytel and Byrnes in the seniors in 2021 when opportunity presents.

For backup Dunstan is way better than Kennedy.

So Carlton have just delisted a future A grader at 23 years of age after playing 48 games, and we should grab him?

Glad you are not taking the piss Pelican.

I think it would please a lot of SS members if you did go back and didn't darken these doors again.

I'm not darkening any doors at all saynta. I want to inspire robust discussion and make Saintsational the number 1 St Kilda Fan Forum again. Just like the good old days between the early noughties to the late noughties.
