Player Watch #20: Nick 'Souva' Larkey - '23 AA & '24 NM VC

[giantroo]

North Melbourne forward Nick Larkey (26/7/21)

How David Noble picking out the positives helped spirits stay high earlier in the season, how forwards "live for days" like North Melbourne's romp over Carlton on Saturday, why he paints murals in his spare time, how draftee Will Phillips is putting together an "underrated" season, and more.

That was a pretty damn comfy interview.

I wonder if the house party during COVID is what led to the club asking Larkey and Zurharr to seperate?

First of many bags.

If there isn't any soft tissue injuries, can easily play until 33, 34.

Hell, just look at hawkins and kennedy, they are still in the peak of their careers at 33.

Edit: Undersold Cameron & Franklin by a few goals and number of 7-goal games in brackets

 

[Chairman Zia]

All we need is 50-60 goals a season from him.

Get comben ready for a debut later in the year or for rd 1 next year, if we can get 20 goals out of him then that's awesome.

Zurhaar is your 35 to 40 goals a year medium forward.

The aforementioend 3 are our premiership triple head.

Got to give Kudos to the North “board” & draft selectors for seeing something with these guys as high picks & rookies (Comben excepting).
Lets hope we can get a few more “members “who “attend” games in 2022 & not only comment crap on here on Big Footy & Twitter via their sticky keyboard.

Didn't know this. Summary? Club just asked them not to live together?

Has not even played 50 games yet and he smashed a gun defender in Weitering, who was shifted forward by the fourth.

Carlton hung Weitering out to dry. And that’s after Nick took his soul.
Should have just moved him onto Xerri rather then start him at FF.
In fact I would have benched him for the 4th and be done with it.

 

[Devington]

He intimated in the interview the club had asked them to live separately, didn't say when though. I just remember that last year the two of them got into a little bit of hot water, potentially very overblown, about having 'a party' while there were restrictions about gatherings in place. A neighbour cracked the shits iirc.

If you really want a walk down memory lane go and look up the result for the game itself...

Yeah no wonder I don’t remember.

I remember being up and about after his first goal though.

Thata' one.

I went nuts at that first goal. Nearly lost my voice then.
