West AdelaideDo you take two small forwards in the same draft .....Baker and Jarman ? ....wouldn't have thought we do that ?
You do realise Cox and Guelfi are nothing alike and Guelfi is an inside mid with good outside capabilities. Actually meets our biggest need (athletic inside/outside mid with decent height).

Tyson Stengle
Small Forward | Woodville-West Torrens/South Australia
19/10/1998 | 171cm | 69kg
Player comparison: Eddie Betts
Snapshot:
One of the best pure small forwards in the draft, Tyson Stengle has some real draftable qualities. After kicking 48 goals last year for Woodville-West Torrens in the Under 18s, Stengle this year has continued his great form at both state and club level.
Stengle has excelled as a small forward in 2016. In total he has shown a capability to kick goals at will and has also shown his ability to bring his teammates into the play as a forward. This has allowed Stengle to play that tradition small forward role who also gets his teammates involved up forward with his unselfishness and kicks opportunistic goals.
This form at both club and state level lead to him being selected to test at the national draft combine, one of only ten from South Australia to do so. Stengle has a lot of interest from clubs and it is not hard to see why with his ability to shake opponents, set up teammates and kick goals all being first class.
Statistics:
Strengths:
One of Stengle’s best traits as a forward is his goal sense. No matter where he is inside 50, you can expect when he sets sights for goal he will not miss. This goal sense makes Stengle a real threat up forward as he does not need much of the ball to have an impact when he can kick goals from anywhere.
- Goal sense
- Kicking
- Evasiveness
- Assisting
Stengle is also a great field kick. When disposing of the ball by foot, he always hits his targets and weighs them to perfection. No matter the situation he makes sure he gets kicks the ball with the intention to hurt the opposition. Kicking is the most crucial skill at AFL level and the fact that Stengle is already proficient will bode well for him at draft time.
This field kicking ability has also allowed Stengle to set up his teammates up forward. As a small forward there is no better support act then Stengle in the forward line. He is as unselfish as they come and often tries to get his teammates into the game by getting them involved offensively. A testament to this is his score assist numbers which he averaged two assists a game which at AFL level is considered very good by his position.
Another skill Stengle has is his evasiveness. Up forward he is one of the hardest players to catch as he can dodge and weave unlike most. This combined with his great core strength makes him extremely elusive when he gets the ball. He is able to shake opponents is of the highest order and allows him to find space for himself up forward.
Improvements:
One thing that Stengle struggles with compared to other small forwards is athleticism. He is not extremely gifted in any athletic trait unlike other small forwards this year. Speed wise he isn’t flash, his endurance is average and vertically he will not be breaking any records. His lack of athleticism will not hinder him too much as a player but might stop him from being taken higher in the draft.
- Athleticism
- Left foot kicking
Stengle’s left foot kicking is also questionable. Tyson multiple times this year looks to avoid kicking on the his left foot and swing back onto his right. This unwillingness to kick on his left boot makes him really predictable for defenders as they know that if he has enough time he will swing on that right foot. This will need to be improved at AFL level as players need to be dual sided in the modern game.
Highlights:
Summary:
A player Stengle has drawn comparisons to is Eddie Betts. Stengle like Betts, bases his game around creating goals for his team individually or setting up their teammates. They both boast great evasiveness and kicking skills which is strong for small forwards. Betts also has a lack of athleticism but compensates with his evasiveness and footy smarts.
Stengle looks likely to be drafted in the later parts of the draft with a likelihood of him potential being a rookie pick. Clubs like Sydney, GWS and North Melbourne might look at Stengle late draft as they look to add talented smalls to their list.
Stengle as a small forward is the all-round prospect. In a year full of smalls has stood out and projects to be a strong prospect up forward. He has a rare ability as a small forward to impact games consistently as he can kick goals, set up teammates forward and create something from nothing up forward.
West AdelaideWasn't comparing the players in style / skills......just saying they are both Vanilla players
Can't like this enough. Eddie comparison is spot on. Will be a top flight small forward, just makes things happen.Danger in Texas

Unfortunately I don't think we'll take both Stengle and Jarman in the same draft
Yep, I'd pick Stengle.
West Adelaide
......this post will come back to haunt you .....Stengles a worse athlete than Jarman, and Jarman's has twice the footy intellect
Yeah this is just wrong. If anything, Jarman and Stengle have the same athleticism (which, admittedly, isn't great), but Stengle more than makes up for it with his evasiveness and agility. Jarman has very good footy smarts and skills, but Stengle is just about on par in that he has that uncanny ability to easily find teammates in better spots than himself, as well as knowing when to go for a snap himself. A few of the things that the article doesn't mention is that he's very good at ground level, he's a very aggressive tackler (tackling production could be a little higher though) and he is also very good on the lead for a small forward.
He's one I like tooDanger in Texas

West AdelaideYou want to bookmark this post .....you can raise it again when he's not selected by the Crows
Oh, he won't be selected by the Crows now that we've put our eggs in the Jarman basket. I know that.You want to bookmark this post .....you can raise it again when he's not selected by the Crows
Is Jarman a small forward or nothing at all, or does he have a small chance of playing midfield?
Poor kid, sounds way more serious than the heart condition Wayne Milera had treated before last year's draft, really feel for the kid, life can be a real bastard sometimes.
West AdelaideUnless that poor athletic analysis is WAY OFF the mark .......not sure you can rank a small slow / athletically poor in all areas, at 30 - 35 in this draft ??????
Yes hopes and dreams for Villis crumbling around him. Just hope there is a way with the Medical Tech something can be done for him.
West AdelaideForgetting positions for a minute ......lets just say recruiting two 175 cm players in the same draft is very very unlikely
He's probably athletically average, not poor. I continue with the Betts comparison - Eddie doesn't have the pace or endurance to constantly play up the ground, but when played as a small forward, his uncanny footy smarts and very good evasion make up for this. This is how I also see Stengle.
Mitchell is not the same height.
West AdelaideThat may have been the case early with Betts at Carlton (by his own admission) .......but i think now at Adelaide he seems to have the speed and looks absolutely fine aerobically .....must admit i haven't seen him hunched over all that often, and seems great on repeat efforts
West Adelaide4cm difference .....assuming Jarman doesn't grow anymore ?
