Past #17: Aaron Mullett - 85 NM games/31 goals - ‘11 Rookie Draft - Fish —> Carlton as DFA Nov’17

[remfan101]

He was genuinely great towards the end of last year as well, and has had probably his best start to a year. I reckon Fishy's back, and it's taking this board a bit longer than usual to catch on

 

[The Nostradamus]

Liking his game a lot this year.

Is my preferred kick out option also. Gets good penetration

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Yeah, he's been really good this year. Would be in the top few in the B&F at this stage.

But I still think he has more offensive weapons and is a bit below what is needed in a one-on-one defender. Wing?

 

[Kciza]

Hitting a long target with the kickout makes it so much easier to score. Worth his spot in the team for that alone

I'd like him to get a tad faster which'll enable him to regain his run and bounce conclude with a goal mojo back.

It's all very simplistic me saying this.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Or at least be part of a team goal.

I hope Azza goes to the forward line sometime during his career and kick 30+.

Definitely a good kicking in option.

Was the most confident I'd seen him play last night.

Fish on Good Friday - what you expect!

Exactly the feeling many have with JMac. Our two future wingers may be JMac and Fishy, and I mean attacking wingers rather than fall back extra defender type wingers.

Watching as an outsider, I feel Shaun Atley should be a wingman instead of Macmillan.

I just don't see it with Macmillan and have never seen him other than beige without a standout feature of his game.
Atley at least can run turning it into a sprint while Azza has that left peg.

Have Atley on one wing, Azza on the other and get someone like Hibberd or Durdin developing into a backman.
Atley should be higher than where he is as, compared to him being on a wing and excelling at it from what I've seen, an unqualified backman.

I seriously would like to see Az try to become a wingman and, if possible, a midfielder.

BTW, good to see Azza hit 70 games as I didn't think he'd get one game due to the promotion and constant playing of Pedersen (another Barker boy) and Keys Delaney with Pedersen being better than Keys I always thought.


Sorry for this ramble but more thoughts and opinions entered my head.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Slightly off-topic but I still see it a privilege watching Azza play on TV.
Still feel like I'm watching a kick to kick session at recess or lunch.

I always remember at school wanting to say I went to school with a VFL/AFL player and, in Mullett, I can tell North Melbourne fans I did.

Even back at school his left foot was penetrating and straight and he could kick a decent torp as well.

Even shared the same form for a semester in Year 9.

I just want him to take a specky and I'll feel content with Mullett's career so far.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

"Slightly" biased but he's my No. 1 kick into play for North.

Nice game fish. Worked hard over the off season/pre season. Going well.

So are you the one who told him to get s**t tats all the way back in year 9?

Never liked player badges for some reason.

Never known what people see in collecting them.

That's the ******* Sheep mentality of my age group.

Dayne Beams created a monster and not Mullett.

All sleeve tattoos look shithouse.

 

[Only Forwards]

I like him.

He's terribly one sided though.

If it ain't his left it's nothing.

 

[Horizons_00]

Needs to apply way more tackles but will definitely get better as the year goes on

He has the ability to rip games apart imo

 

[Snake_Baker]

I am wrapped for this bloke as he has had to fight every inch of the way.

He has cemented a best 22 spot now. Well done fish.

Really liked his season so far. Looked the most confident and at home that I've seen in his entire time at North. Is a valuable player for us now.

Yeah I agree , looked gone 12 months ago

 

[ferball]

Hats off to him. Worked his way back well.

I just realised he shares a birthday with my youngest daughter.

You do realise a good number of badge collectors are in roughly the 6-13 age bracket?

After finishing off last season well also.
