News Brynn Teakle signs with North Melbourne

[Steve Dore]

Cult hero written all over him

It's the mullet.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Mature state league club recognises player ambitions and wishes him well.

[Jonts]

missionpossible any memories of this guy in his draft year?

 

[ROBBBO]

Get him fit and wait and see the flower bloom.
Looks a very reasonable pick

 

[VineValerian]

We must have thought that we would finish so high come year's end under the supercoach, that the likes of Scully, Lemmey and
Barnett would already ge gone by our first pick in the National Draft

Won't be drafting many talls then. That's ok, we can concentrate on mids and small forwards.

Late developing forward/ruck with good athletic attributes, nice palmer, clunks marks.

 

[ROBBBO]

Shots fired on Crows 25yo choice lol

 

[Palpatine_Power]

Bit strange we go with a project ruckman. He’s very skinny, I doubt he’s anywhere near our best 22. Basically drafted to balance out our 2’s side? Odd decision.

Carmichael available too. But then again, we’re a bin fire

 

[Adz2332]

Don't mind this.
Good stats for around the ground, decent amount of marks to.

Good luck to him

 

[Saltiga]

With this pick, we'll probably see Lord stick to CHF now instead of giving a chop out in the ruck sometimes.

I've yet to see anything meaningful from Visentini when moved out of the ruck. If Teakle is given significant ruck minutes, Visentini would need to show something up forward.

From what you've seen of Visentini, is there any chance he could turned into a big fullback for us?

 

[RossFC]

From what you've seen of Visentini, is there any chance he could turned into a big fullback for us?

For now I'd just develop him in the ruck.

 

[cmpower]

Should’ve picked up Sutcliffe again….

But seriously, don’t mind it - probably our most promising mid season pick so far

 

[Corby_says]

Welcome young man, no reason you can't develop into a fine player.

 

[HugeJohnson]

Looks a bit like a Franklin/Gawn hybrid type player.

 

[davesnothere]

Absolute worse outcome is a decent career in the Power reserve side.

 

[robbo1981]

I think he looks promising I wonder if we could trail Lord a CHB for the rest of the yr?

 

[RossFC]

 

[AFC AFeederClub]

this must be the club admitting trading ladhams was wrong. So we let go a guy for peanuts who is dominating at sydney to only trade in a ruckman 6 months down the track. Binkley-ball

 

[Adz2332]

i know its only highlights but he moves well for a big bloke.

Why has it taken till 22 to get picked up?

What was his knock as a junior?

 

[PJ Power]

Looks like a passionate young man.
He’ll make a significant difference to the Magpies this year and looks like he has some qualities that could translate to AFL level over time.
I like the long-term option of developing either him or Lord into a key defender.

The make-up of young talls on our list should allow for that.

 

[1954]

A 203cm ruck/forward who at only 22 should still have some development to come has to be a better value pick for the long term than just another 178 cm flanker, but I will need to see how he performs for the Maggies before I get too carried away.

Regardless of his height and hoped for ability though, he looks to be about 10 kegs of muscle short of where he will need to be to cut it on a regular basis at AFL level, and it usually takes at least a couple of preseasons for that to occur.

 

[chiwigi]

Exact type of player a team should get from n the Mid Season Draft if there are no obvious holes that need an urgent plug.

 

[philthy05]

Reminds me of Jackson from Melbourne in the way he plays and moves.

Am I the only one who thinks he's more agile and athletic than both Lycett and Hayes?

That’s not a high bar

 

[Lefti93]

Does he have a sister called Tess?

hahaha man

 

[robbo1981]

He might of been a late starter as well because he played other sports Water polo and Volleyball I believe it was .
