North Melbourne tagger McDonald has come under fire for an incident shortly after the half-time siren in which he covered his mouth while facing McKenna, seemingly mocking the fact McKenna had tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this year. The Irishman was forced into quarantine and missed a match because of his positive test.
Former Bomber Brendon Goddard questioned McDonald’s actions.
