Past #33: Mitch Wilkins - officially delisted by North Melbourne (31/10/14)

[r_boy]

His movement and decisions are very confident and he pulls them all off too. Very nice start for him.

 

[Daz]

I'm not convinced all his senior teammates could do the same thing.

I disagree.

 

[Artaxx]

That video is nice to get a look at him but it doesn't tell us much. He was only under pressure in one or two of those passages.

geez tough crowd! He was under pressure a few times but wasn't for long.....which is great thing.
Kid can really kick a footy. Some of those didn't get a yard off the grass and travelled real quick.
I like it.

 

[Daz]

I'm not knocking the kid, it's just a small sample size.

 

[muttley45]

check his highlights package on the north video thread, some good viewing there

 

[NiceCunnington]

I found that pretty impressive. There were a few tricky moments that he handled nicely. Very composed. How many games has he played against men?

 

[ArjenTheGreat]

The kid can play. There is pressure from within which can only be a good thing.

Our Vfl games will be well worth viewing this year as we are stockpiling some serious talent.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Will be the greatest player to ever to pull on the blue and white.

First person to average 100% efficiency across his entire career

 

[LB2Snake]

I was actually impressed with a few options that he chose, didn't just go the obvious get out kick but tried to create something quite a few times there. Certainly looks composed with the footy. Early days but that's all good.

 

[Archerblueblood]

Confident when flying back for marks
Good awareness when in trouble and still hit a team mate under pressure
Nice foot skills and not to bad by hand either
Have a lot to work with, good start so far

Facts about Mitch that you didnt know.
1) Nickname at Club is Ritchie
2) Possible Ranga (yet to be determined)
3) Frequents love machine sundays on occassion

 

[Passmore]

Glad he can kick, now we wait 4 yrs for him to be strong enough to defend.

He'll become best mates with McKenzie in the weights room. They are probably on a similar time line.

 

[roo beleaver]

If he can produce that every week (even with lower eff%) we certainly have a player

 

[Orange Peanut]

3) Frequents love machine sundays on occassion

If he can produce that every week, we certainly have a playa

 

[Twinkletoes]

If he can produce that every week, we certainly have a playa

And absolutely no need to look at Buddy (being a free agent).

 

[Kimbo]

Is there a bus yet?

 

[ArjenTheGreat]

Is there a bus yet?

I'm waiting at the bus stop. Not sure what to make of the delay.

I did say the moment we had vision of the boy that he was better than Jacobs, and after one VFL hitout whilst obviously underdone, he has not let me down.

And as you WELL know, i'm not easily impressed!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Bigeasy]

I was the first to call for his inclusion in light of MacMahons suspension so I'm driving the bus. All aboard.

 

[SMaturin]

I'm getting on. This is my first ever bus ride. Don't let me down Mitch.

 

[Kimbo]

This bus...?

...or this one?

 

[Snake_Baker]

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Add 5kegs and he'll be right.

Anyone know what his tank is like?

 

[Ahern2Boof]

Sneaky chance for a late game if we aren't a chance of finals?

Looks a good prospect.

 

[DJ75]

Hi all, sorry to intrude, but I have been following Mitch for a few years and am having trouble finding out how he has been going this year.
Any reports I can look at?

Has been playing in the VFL and performing well. Had a game where he had 100% disposal efficiency a few months ago. I have no doubt we'll see him at some stage next year in the senior side.
