Player Watch Tyan Prindable

[TradeDraft]

Apparently he was the prospect the lions wanted the most after Annabel but it was just too early.for them.

Where did you hear/read that Jen2310 ?

Big Difference they rated him vs Annabel

I believe cal twomey mentioned it on the coverage on the afl site.
Clearly Annabel is far above. But he said they would have liked Prindable, if the bid was a bit later.

Based on what?

I think we have the best midfielder, but we don't seem to have someone who will realistically be a strong 2nd and 3rd threat in the middle. Other clubs do.

I was being hopeful and hyperbolic! It's November 2025! We can dream big right now.

To be fair we thought MCrae and Draper could be fine midfielders.

I didn't. I haven't seen a player of the build and style of either Swadling or Angus Anderson selected in a draft for quite some time.

Pendles like with his professionalism

He would have known that he was not guaranteed to be taken by Brisbane, even though he was part of their academy.
I think we've got a good one!

Yeah nothing was a guarantee. I reckon unless you are a top pick, you hope but no expectations and just want to get on a list.
I agree, I think we've got a good one here. Will get the best out of himself.

 

[Chunky Steak]

Those northern academies are becoming a draft within a draft.

It's fantastic for the game to see all this high level talent come through from non traditional footy states. But there will need to be a balancing of the ledger soon. I agree with Gerard Whately that it's already gone too far.

He has the same sort of mentality M Voss had and I think we can thank our lucky stars the club was able to select him. I like his no nonsense approach very much and coupled with his strong build already I would not be surprised if he gets to play this season and I think like most of the best ones he will be in there to stay.

I think Pendles is the perfect player for him to be around,he will be a steal this boy.

That the Lions were able to overlook a boy like this say,s everything about the advantages these northern academies have and along with F/S avenues will make it very hard to compete with them.

I think they have made a mistake with Tyan though but when you look at who they already have plus Annable it is no wonder but I feel sure this boy will show them the error of their ways,he already has a sense of what it takes to succeed, the Lions have never done much for the Pies but I think we have beauty here.

I get a Sydney mid from their previous era vibe.

is that a good thing

 

[sr36]

Yes. 2013 type of era when they had an endless supply of really solid professional inside mids.

 

[unplugged]

Would be very easy to think 'he's on the academy for team x, y or z so we won't bother putting time into him' but after bidding on two academy players and landing them in consecutive years, it just goes to show every player is worth putting the effort into if they fit a list need.

Think last year we were a bit spooked thinking Sydney probably just didn't match because they didn't rate. But this year it seems a lot clearer that Brisbane just didn't have his type high on their list. I mean sure if he was a top ten prospect and the same style player they'd probably just get him anyway, but their loss will hopefully be our gain.

I reckon when you get Annable to add to an already impressive midfield, I'm thinking they just didn't have the need for another mid

I think Brisbane just didn’t rate him as highly as we did, and that’s okay.

 

[SchuPie]

I’ve said it before but he’s a mid’s mid

Will be Mr consistent / reliable

 

[SchuPie]

I already call him “Bruns” in my head every time I see him
