Exciting forward Jaidyn Stephenson has been touted as an early pick and will show his wares at North Melbourne...

Jaidyn also didnt play in the U17s All stars game due to injury.

We tend to attract that type.

We tend to attract that type.

Just thinking about this issue.

It would seem that, with modest draft picks, we've deliberately targeted players who have had some injury related setbacks, and under-agers (Sugar, McKay) along with some targeted trading along similar lines (Jacobs, Ahern) knowing that they are less highly valued or riskier options, but backing our medical and coaching staff to get the most out of them.

Good to see another footy player with a stupid stuttery set shot action ...... F*** me how hard is it, these gooses need to give themselves an uppercut !

 

[Quivorir]

If it works for them why change? Kennedy is one of the best goal kickers in the comp and he stutters the worst of anyone.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Subtle.

Had to include him as he was one of the 3 30+ year olds.

Same applies to all 3 of the old guys, they should potentially expect time in the 2s and not have their slots guaranteed

If they are good enough their age should mean jack all. We are not Brisbane.

Good signs. Is that Preuss in the background? If so he looks to have a very agile body type for a ruckman sized player.

Edit: BTW would love to get a look or two at McKay in the AFL this year. Got a good feeling about him.

Hey Melbourne-ites is there any open trainings at Arden Street this Saturday morning?
