NORTH MELBOURNE
Tim McGennis: The hard-running midfielder was a surprise packet in the VFL last season and continues to excel. Has been in Werribee's best in five of the Tigers' eight games this year. McGennis came to North in 2013 and has impressed with his aerobic ability.
Joel Tippett: Was elevated to the senior list for Tom Curren in March and played four games before being cruelled by a torn pectoral against Geelong in round 10. The 25-year-old key defender faces a battle to play again this season.
Kayne Turner: North's final pick in last year's rookie draft, Turner has quickly found his feet at VFL level. The former Murray Bushranger has speed, a competitive desire and the ability to play forward or back. Only 67kg at the start of the year, he needs to bulk up in the off-season.
Eric Wallace: In the final year of his two-year deal, the international rookie from North Carolina has played eight VFL games as a ruck/forward for North Ballarat and been named in the best once.
Max Warren: Now in his third and final season as a rookie, Warren needs a big season to prove his value at Arden Street. The small defender has been in North Ballarat's best in the past two games and will hope to build on that form in the second half of the year.
Summary: No rookie was promoted after Tippett's pectoral injury but Tim McGennis would be the clear frontrunner for any elevation. – Travis King
