I like that we obviously knew that we would go after him in the MSD a week ago, but it didn't get out.

No leaks shows a united club.

Welcome, Q.

Didn't know that Peps, Quinton and Shai Bolton were great mates.
 
Sparkle Narkle ... Nice story. I am rapt to have him. The SPP link is a good one.

How Quinton got his sparkle back: Port rookie's rocky road to new home​

Quinton Narkle has overcome several disappointments on his journey back to the AFL stage. He tells Josh Gabelich how he got there

That's a great article and for some reason makes me feel a whole lot more positive about taking him.

It seems like he has done the work on his fitness and defensive side and SPP could be the perfect role model in that respect.

I have a feeling the 2 of them will relish creating a defensive pressure tag team on our half forward line.

I understand picking him up so we have an extra mid but he got delisted at Geelong for being defensively lazy, ill need to see him play in the sanfool for a few games before we select him for afl.
Why? Wouldnt they have seem him play in the VFL? (where there is mixed reports from different VFL posters on his defensive pressure)

Short sighted pick
Hinkley desperation
Don't see him being resigned next year

Would have preferred a KPP

I am not so sure about next year as I see Dumont, McEntee, Evans and Teakle as delist candidates before Narkle. Those guys have all had a year or two to cement a spot at AFL level and they have not really advanced past depth players. Jonas, Hayes and Fantasia are also candidates. I can see Narkle getting getting until the end of 2024 to show what he has to offer.

If we have a new Coach, which seems less likely as the weeks roll on, things may change considerably.

If McEntee continues to play at his current level he'll surely get another 12 months.
 
Quinton Narkle's highlights reel shows he can kick goals on the run but there isn't much vision of his field play. He has kicked 18.14 so he is not that accurate and doesn't kick that many. Maybe this is because he was played in the mid field? Going by the highlights reel he is a small forward type. When we recruited Steven Motlop I thought we were getting a goal kicking half forward but that did not really transpire, hopefully Quinton works out a little differently.

If you watched the highlights of a back pocket I swear it would show every goal they ever kicked. Narkle is a midfielder who can drift forward and kicks goals.
 
Have we got a thing for Geelong rejects?

Stevie Motlop, Wylie buzza, Frank the tank, chasing sav-rat, and now this guy.

Yeah, I would like to see what he is like at set shots. He does look to have a bit of pace and is a long kick.
