Welcome Tom, hope you find our niche in the backline, or a dangerous 3rd tall alongside Todd and Mitch.
And as for a nickname, I'm guessing it's Macca, or Roller.

McCallum and Pasini sound like a good one two punch moving forward

"blending speed, endurance"McCallum's top traits fall under the umbrella of athleticism, with his all-round profile proving valuable to his on-field game. Perhaps his most eye-catching attribute is speed, with the 18-year-old capable of taking off in a flash and generating damaging running passages out of defence.
In the a similar vein, McCallum's vertical leap lends to strong aerial prowess. He reads the flow of play nicely and even if he's caught slightly out of position, has enough closing speed and range to at least impact the contest. At his best, he rises for some incredible marks and averaged over five throughout the NAB League season. Even more impressively, he clunked seven in three-consecutive National Championship games.

Athletic Tasmania Devils defender Tom McCallum blends speed, endurance and enormous aerial ability as an eye-catching AFL Draft prospect.central.rookieme.com
Unique?
Good move, looks like a good future 1st Rnd trade pick for the Tassal Roasted Samon’s.

Seems like a Ryan Burton clone.
Let's Houston and others move up the ground/midfield.

Definitely Roller is a contender but more obscure candidates are Illya, Uncle and Doc.

He seems to play like Tim Evans except not Tim Evans with a bit of Cam O'Shea. Honestly, i think his name should be Roller.

...but seriously. Bit short. This is a classic pick for the way Bassett used to run the defence. Small and "talls only hurt if they are good lol"
Good luck to him. Not a particularly inspiring pick.

I saw a clip from an episode of NCIS where someone asked Gibbs what “Ducky was like when he was younger”.
The response was “Illya Kuryakin”
Stop being negative and give the kid a go, he has been compared to Tom Stewart who he is taller than, and is still growing
Are you saying he has a Manly Uncle? Or does he play Napoleon Solo?
Havent read the thread yet but he is an actual Chayce Jones at halfback clone

Hence Doc as a possible nickname.

What are we going to do when he refuses to leave though.
He’s going to take someone’s spot and keep it.
