Teakle: involved early, sharing duties. Has good ruck craft but gives away frees.

These WA players use the ball so poorly

"Teakle out-muscled in ruck by Doyle" - commentator in regards to game. Agreed. He's good against the back-up, not the full time.

Hasn't been his best showing. WA playing poorly.

 

[stormskye]

Aiden grace looks handy.

Averaging 2.5 goals a game in the SANFl.

Not a KPF though

Former Tasmanian, star of the TSL when he played for Glenorchy.

He is 26 and a medium forward. Probably not interested in him. That said, he is 189cm and could offer something to a side if they were interested. Personally think age means he won't be drafted.

 

[Mollythedolly]

There season is over. They'll pick best available rather than short term needs. That might be Teakle but probably not.

Thet already have a few developing ruck options (Colina, Ryan, & Hayes-Brown) so best available would likely take them in a different direction.

Ex-Magpie, former Demon headline mid-season draft nominees

The AFL has approved 127 players so far who are available to be selected in the 2024 mid-season draft

Realistically, the players mentioned are the best shot.

Dunkley at the Lions follows given they have four spots open and need depth. Bianco, likely.

Blight, McLennan maybe.

Harder to tell after that. This draft has a number of openings but it depends how much teams want to add depth.

 

[Rorzza]

How is AJ still only 26 years old, I'm certain posters were posting he was 27 this time last year, is he related to Benjamin Button?

 

[3rdMan]

It's not exactly easy to find a ruck in the MSD that will be ready to come in and play big games or finals. Weigh the chance of that succeeding against the chance of having enough injuries for it to be necessary and against what we could cobble together, even with a few injuries, and it's not clear that we need a ruck or any tall.

The likelihood of any player we pick being able to play for us this year is small. Doubt we reduce that by focusing on a specific type. If there isn't anyone very likely at all, maybe we pick someone just as "hope we don't need backup" in the short term, but doubt that'd be our preference.

Unless Teakle was a player who only 'just' missed out on being selected as an SSP, because at the time our needs were for mids & a defender.

Now we have a need for a ruck, he (or another ruck man) seems the most logical choice, as all our depth/back ups in the VFL are injured.

Where is Sofranidis at? I haven't seen him in the VFL for at least a month.

I'd be taking Pike ahead of Teakle. 30 HOs in the VFL on the weekend, 2 goals against men, named in the best, strong CTL season.

How is his overhead marking?

 

[sr36]

Yeah, I just want a tall who can provide a decent contest in the air - not too worried about the hitouts - you can work around poor ruckwork, it's the aerial presence that we get from our rucks that is important to us and that we don't have forwards that can be relied upon to give us.

 

[memoryofmchale]

How is his overhead marking?

A strength. Also knows how to tap it down to smalls.

Basketball background, hence why he's been a little bit late.

Excellent, we'll get 400 games out of him

 

[SchuPie]

With no knowledge whatsoever...Jacob Blight

yeah absolutely. unfortunately reckon he'll be gone by the time our pick rolls around

People are forgetting Rich just lost Naismith, and with a pick before us, I doubt Teakle will be available even if we wanted him.
Not sure what plan B is under those circumstances.

 

[Jen2310]

With the AFL mid-season draft looming (29 May), two from the WAFL side, Brynn Teakle and Jacob Blight are believed to have attracted interest.Coach Cam Shepherd said of the pair: “I think Blight showed that he can take a good mark and roll off.“There are some areas of his defending that certainly he needs to improve in, and he needs to just hit the easy kick.“Brynn showed again some good signs. He certainly did himself no harm.”Blight did turn the ball over a couple of times early, but was solid in defence, with 13 marks and 17 disposals.Teakle had his hands full against SA trio Amos Doyle, Mitch Harvey and Riley Holder. But had 16 hit-outs, took five marks, had three clearances and 20 possessions.
