Past Aaron Mullett

[Robbo's my hero]

Finally we landed a big fish.

If nobody picked him up, I heard he was going to give acting a go. Tough gig though, with Nemo & Dory taking all the good roles...

They are tanking to accelerate their rebuild. Jettison some talent and load up on good picks in the super draft

What a bloody pick up. Really rate this bloke beautiful left foot run and carry and pace to burn!

North are bloody nuts delisting this bloke

Mullett has a number of strengths, decent enough pace (not super quick though), kicking, long kick of the footy, top 5 rebounder last season, natural winger, goal kicker and is a hard worker.

However, his decision making under pressure is poor (which burns you in defence), is weak one-on-one, has little scope of improvement left in him, his disposal numbers stay the same (don't increase much beyond 20 a game), his ground ball gets aren't great and his body work is poor for a defender.

His stats suggest a good year, but he's a solid depth player more than an outright best 22 player. He got as many games as he did purely due to long-term injuries to Marley Williams, Nielson, EVW, MacMillan and Wright, all of whom are better or have the potential to go past Mullett's ceiling. His age was also a concern at North as we look to get younger guys in who were pushing Mullett for a spot late last season. He would be purely depth for North next season, so it was a case of letting him go for a bit more opportunity.

As for the other spuds and old farts on the North list atm, a few are contracted till next year, but are definitely out the door. Guys like Anderson, Swallow, Waite, Thompson and Thomas will be gone by the end of next season, merely because they are contracted for next year and are needed purely as depth, not best 22.

Great pick up. Wanted him at Collingwood but there’s plenty more fish in the sea, I guess.

you guys frequently lament over 'the one that got away', don't you?

It's ok you've still got Chris Mayne Morgs.

3 more years lol thanks Aph!

Why was he delisted by North? Still find it puzzling, they have plenty of other spuds still listed...

I'm stunned

Okay, I've taken some time to mullett over and I approve.

Looks like a few people on here like a Mull ?

Mullimup bro.

I sea what you did there.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Good pickup guys. He's weak defensively but he adds a lot of run off half back and he's got a good left peg on him. He'll do well for you. Wouldn't have delisted him personally.

Sounds like a good replacement for Tuohy.

I honestly thought he was cooked, but I'm sure if we can find a role for him, he'll fillet nicely.

Done. Lift.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Done. Lift.

Missed it. I'll go back and delete whoever else said it.

Whatever you feel is necessary oh wise one.

I appreciate the support.

How is he at crumbing? On a physical level is he often battered? Looks like he kicks long so hopefully there will be 'minimum Chips' on his shift. Hopefully we've hooked a Good One here blues. (anymore fish jokes?)

 

[Blue and Silver]

That's funny, I thought I typed "oh great wise one"

I must be wrong, your eminence

I've heard he has a habit of kicking it long down back, but short around the sides.

 

[Red Bull]

Too small , throw him back ...

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

We don't really need any more defenders, so I think we only picked him up for the halibut.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

I heard he was really keen on coming after Fisher dropped him a line and told him it was a really good learning environment, a lot like a school.




There's plenty more...
