Past #39: Flynn Perez - drafted w/ #39 in 2019 ND - 2x ACL - delisted end '23 - 24 NM games / 1 NM goals - thanks Flynn

[chubbspeterson]

I'd extend another year. A lot of this Perez/Lazzaro/Taylor/Spicer/Ford group haven't had great development, we might need to give them 1 or 2 years in this regime to decide if they're up to it. Most of them aren't even close to 50 games at AFL level either.

just last yesterday we saw signs that Perez isn't totally useless.

that fyi is a compliment

When there's 17 players OOC or facing retirement, there's probably nothing to lose by keeping a kid who is actually built like a modern day footballer.

Terrible defender but might be a reasonable wing option

Exactly. Run, carry and deliver long in to the forward line.

I like Perez, but he did have 5 kicked on him yesterday

Yes well, he deserves to be delisted. But as you pointed out we have 17 OOC players and that is a fair amount. Magoo aside as he's a RFA
none seem to be getting any attention elsewhere, kind of pertinent.
Flynn needs to drop some weight and get fit, he kicked the ball 60 metres into a slight breeze. That's captaincy material at North.

He'd be ahead of Bonars, Youngs, Halls, Ziebells & Drury's. Crikey bloody Drurys. And FYI the Drury has returned its verdict.

It's up to Flynn, does he want to mooch about for another two years, or make a career for himself.

Fat Flynn has played 22 games for North they are as follows







LOL- wonder how he felt after the Tiger victory.

That's just pathetic, and it's not his fault. But yeah you have to wonder what mindset these guys have.

That’s depressing reading.

 

[WesternRoo]

I think he could make it as a winger.

He is not a good defender. At all.

 

[SonofSamsquanch]

That’s depressing reading.

But to be fair, a y player who has commenced with North over the last four or five years will have a similar win / loss record.

 

[shinboner magic]

Thought it was TT when that goal went through

Doesn’t have the pace to be a winger imo. In any event, he’s been improving so I’d be offering a year

Merlin he like 80% of our squad he needs to get fitter.

Get to more contests = more ball . Simple I know but it’s bloody time for these guys to decide on what they want to be.

The problem in the past is blind Freddie can see the players need to get fitter, it’s how they do it is the issue.
I’m sick of seeing the next sentence, ‘young north player to go down with OP for over running.’

our fitness department is terrible.

 

[tazaa]

Just on fitness, it begs the questions if Nick Daicos was drafted by North would he be as fit as he is now or do the Pies have higher standards?

Who the f*** am I kidding lol

Tbf Daicos walked in there as one of the fittest. He is a freak.

Agree with the general point though

 

[Junk yard]

Can't run, Can't defend and can't kick. We can't afford to keep players like this on the list for 4+ years.

I can’t believe that a year into Clarko’s coaching team joining we are still talking about this. Would have thought talent aside, this is easily fixable

We're going to have to keep some of these guys on the list unless we get a better ready made replacement in.

I've watched some of Perez's stuff from the weekend. He can kick. Not just the goal from outside 50 either. Great pass to X in traffic and another beautiful kick to TTs advantage that he dropped in front of goal.

With a North Melbourne jersey? Not likely with our luck.

Hasn't been the smoothest transition to Clarko's team in fairness. They need an absolutely brutal pre-season. Do we still have that Irish bloke as our head of fitness? What's happening there?
