That's ok we'll have him next year plus a few others on the radar.

100% agree mate but Cam will be helping out around the place until the new season commences and we'll get stronger for next year too

The comp would be better with a fit performing Mccarthy but thems the rules and for once the WAFC are being consistent.

SS...if we barely make the 4 this year or don't make it at all you'd think the recruiting restriction would be lifted on the club and he'd look great in maroon and gold.

Yes it came down to that
This application wasn't for the league or even the club as such - more for the welfare of young McCarthy
even a Reserves only permit to keep one of our own lads in the game as there couldn't be a contract
well - for money obviously

Spot on Southerner-.is he therefore not allowed to play anywhere? No even Ammos?

well again that would be up to the AFL's gymp the WAFC to decide upon
it's doubtful everything football falls under the gymps

The WAFC rule specifically says no WAFL team so i assume he could play PFL, cant see why not.

Hopefully he tries to resurrect his AFL career. Was always surprised he never put on any bulk. Always looked AFL unfit to me.

Would love to see what he could do at AFL level with +8-10kgs on him.

Very overrated player I reckon and don’t understand why so many on here jump to the conclusion that he’ll be such a good pick up for South, somebody even said he could dominate. He has gotten a heap of currency from his 20 game 35 goal season for GWS this bloke. He then went on to sit out a season by choice, and kick 64 goals from 50 games for Fremantle. And he doesn’t exactly assist in many goals from what I saw. In fact I would label him lazy and soft. Not sure of his WAFL record but I’m pretty sure it would be less than a goal a game.

It's unfortunate he ended up at freo, it's a place where AFL players go to die.

He's a proven AFL player, playing forward is much harder than down back and he certainly has talent.
A great coach once told me, if you keep doing the same shit, u will get the same result..
Would have been good to see him strong up like Darling instead of getting tatts and manscaping his mo.
