Player Watch Patrick Parnell - Contract Extension To End of 2024

[ABAB]

Was really impressed with his game against Sturt, but man he looks like a 12yr old out there running with men.

Very high ceiling then.

 

[Truck25]

Very high ceiling then.

Didn't take backward step, also laid a few good tackle, but his vision was impressive and is a nice kick. I think there is definitely a player in there. He was probably our best player or close to in the 2nd when we made the move and built the lead.

 

[Crows 2024 Premiers]

Really impressive today in the SANFL. Great skillset for the role. Feel very secure where he has the ball in hand. Couple of turnovers today not from poor execution but due to not having the chemistry with teammates to know where they like to position themselves in contests up the ground/leading patterns. High level talent.

 

[Deaneus!]

I’m quietly intrigued by this young man. He seems to have slotted into the team rather quickly.

 

[hey shorty]

Yep he's got up to speed very quickly, looks very handy

 

[BRL121]

While he's not remotely similar in physique, he certainly plays in a manner very similar to Caleb Daniel.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Am happy with how this kid has looked.

He’s the same age / draft class as Berry, Thilthorpe, Pedlar, Cook, Borlase, Newchurch. not a bad little addition to that list

 

[bigman]

Will be a player Uses ball well and is a
Footballer who makes Good decisions. Has good pace

 

[Deaneus!]

What’s the odds on a debut this year?

 

[Golumless]

What’s the odds on a debut this year?

It's certainly not 0%.

The likelihood is Parnell probably needs an injury to get a game, seeing Jones starting to settle and play good football in our defence. Though Hamill isn't exactly playing lights out football at the moment, so Parnell does have a door to kick down.

I'm starting to come around to a late debut. Got it all as a defender/outside midfielder, except height.

Looks like a 14 year old, won't be spending much on razor blades for a year or two yet.

He closes by saying “hopefully I’ll be here next year”.

Me too mate.

Has good decision making and clean skills. And He hasn’t done an AFL preseason yet!

 

[hey shorty]

Looks like the type of guy we've drafted from a half back to use as a small forward.

 

[WeedsMullet84]

Looks like a 14 year old, won't be spending much on razor blades for a year or two yet.

Looks absolutely sublime on either foot

I'm not seeing that, to me Patty shapes very much like an attacking running back with the speed to break the lines with his run and carry and precise kicking we'd use to break up the oppo's defensive press through the corridor whenever possible.

Based on what I've seen that would be ideal.

 

[FR0GGY]

Wow he looks young!
Speaks pretty well, good luck to the lad, looks like he’s doing all the right things!

 

[moogerfooger]

That's a better highlight reel than some players we've had on our list for years. Nice find!

 

[radiojake]

I am pretty sure there are some child labour laws the Crows are breaking here by signing him?

 

[CrowInFiji]

Pretty sure what I dropped off yesterday is about similar size to this kid but with a kick like that if he doesn't debut this year I think it's rough on him.

Of course, we are more likely to debut him in Ballarat v the dogs or else vs Melbourne and wonder why he wasn't BOG.

Why is it rough on him ??

Can't see why he wouldn't be - think it was Hamish saying we drafted him for the long term and he adds to the group of talented kids we're accumulating.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

What’s the odds on a debut this year?

If he keeps up his sanfl form, we should at least give him a taste.

Hopefully has a big preseason.

Adealaide should come out and say, if you keep that sort of output you’ll be here, give the kid some confidence and clear his mind to free him up
