Harry Sheezel and George Wardlaw are seen as North Melbourne’s future and both are both leading contenders for this year’s Rising Star.
But a forgotten pick from the 2022 AFL Draft has the talent to potentially surpass the duo at Arden Street, says interim coach Brett Ratten.
Brayden George was touted as a top-10 draft pick before an untimely ACL injury and was instead plucked by the Roos with pick 26.
He only joined main training in late June but Ratten has seen enough to place big raps on the 19-year-old.
“He could be the most talented out of this year’s crop. That’s a big call because Sheezel is playing so well and Wardlaw we know is very, very talented, but Brayden has got some real strong AFL attributes,” Ratten told NMFC Media in a member

If Fin Macrae gets a trade away from Collingwood he’ll be a juicy rookie likely to play bulk games (assuming he is traded to meet a need elsewhere). Big watch.
