Played with my young bloke. Tall, rangey, quick, smart. Accurate kick for goal. Very versatile in that he can play midfield too. Played for Vic Metro. I’m very happy with this selection, he’s a beaut kid too. _________________ Billy Picken, the great No. 25 in the sky! |

DRAFT ANALYSIS: “McMahon is an athletic key forward with a terrific vertical leap and high-marking ability, making him an eye-catching prospect.” – Michael Alvaro
Northern Knights product, Liam McMahon came on strongly as a bottom-ager, earning a permanent role in his region’s NAB League side with 15 appearances across a promising 2019 season. The high-marking forward showed glimpses of his eye-catching athleticism, most notably inside attacking 50 as he leapt to mark the ball at its highest point. He also fulfilled his goalkicking duties, averaging just under one per game and twice managing to bag three majors in a single outing. His form warranted selection in the Vic Metro Under 17 Futures side, where he impressed up either end against Queensland. Having entered the AFL Academy pathway as a top-ager, McMahon had been working on his forward craft and running patterns before all Victorian football seasons were cut short. He looms as a key forward option with plenty of development left who could provide great value later in the draft.
STRENGTHS:
Vertical leap
Athleticism
Marking at highest point
Decision making
Upside
IMPROVEMENTS:
Strength/size
Consistency/prolonged output _________________ Billy Picken, the great No. 25 in the sky! |

All the best to him but key position players taken at this stage of the draft rarely make it up forward so it's best to temper ones expectations. _________________ He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD! |

^ we needed a tall and after the 5 in the first round I think all others are developing prospects. With Kelly, Keane and Tohil developing now we have time for this kid. Certainly has the attributes and love hearing about his character.
I thought Callow might have been ahead of him and was ignored so we must rate Liam.
Callow and/or Kolar could be rookie picks. _________________ "Even when Im old and gray, I wont be able to play but Ill still love the game"
