Kamdyn McIntosh

Kamdyn is a classic example of good player development.

In our dark times, he would have gone after a couple of years, maybe 3, after playing 10-15 games and showing glimpses but never going on without the support needed.

To see him flourish as a player under the system we have now is a joy. He is no superstar, but has been given a real opportunity to be the best he can be, and has taken it.
Just 3 years ago there were people here that were asking for his head
glad to see kmac doing well

Don't forget kmac's debut where he pantsed an ageing judd, underestimate him at your peril. I reckon Shorty is the one the development team would be sharing pats on the back over. I didn't expect him to become as dependable down back. Bloody best and fairest no less! Confidence is a huge thing.

Getting better an better , that’s not to say he’s playing his wing in a different way , just doing all things a little bit better. The bizarre , chaotic, inigmama that is George is written all over Kmac’s Richmond DNA as well

Now playing like a dual Premiership player, not a footballer playing for his career.
I can’t imagine many bigger, tougher and harder working wingman in the league. And his one touch, overhead strength and vastly improved kicking ability is a credit to the hard work this bloke puts in.

Proves the old saying, if you want it hard enough you will work to achieve it. Kam is now showing how true that is. Seems to have matured now and reads the game so well and with his tank turns up at the right place at the right time. As others have said, the opposition won't like to appose him on the field

He's like a cyborg on the wing. Big strong fast and just keeps going on and on.

Menegola is probably the closest comparison

Yeah overhead marks standout improvement. Great finals series last year.

Does anyone know how DashKam went in his red paperclip trading challenge, which he started up in the hub last year?
 
I'd quite enjoy seeing him break Isaac Smith in half this year when we play the cats.
Or the Clench, Duckwood, or perhaps even Blixarse. Run him ragged n then rag doll the crap out of him too.

After 13 trades he now has a left handed screw driver and is trying to trade that for a white paper clip and staples

Good stuff. DashKam is nothing if not smart. Hope he gets a couple of boxes of staples thrown into the trade. And who needs a right-handed screwdriver, eh?
