Brandon white

Post: # 1591502Post MC Gusto »

Welcome son!!
Ps Google 'Brandon white' for a laugh



Brandon White (13/01/1997. 188cm, 77kg. Dandenong Stingrays)

Medium defender/midfielder/forward

AFL biography: Well rounded medium midfielder/defender with excellent closing speed. He makes very good decisions and distributes the ball well on his preferred foot. Quality mark overhead for a player of his size. Averaged 15.3 disposals (72 percent efficiency) and 2.2 tackles for the Stingrays this year and impressed in three games for Vic Country in the NAB AFL Under-18 Championships.

"I've always liked Brandon. He probably could have played more games for us as a 17 year old, but he went back and played some senior footy which I think has helped him. He's very aggressive and a very good third defender. Once he's had a bit of time in the system I think he'll be a pure utility, that old model utility that can play in all three zones. He has elite speed and poor endurance so he'll need a couple of years, but he'll end up being the smokey in this draft. In two or three years everyone will be saying, how did he slip so low? He's well disciplined, and he's tough as nails. He's that genuine run-through-a-brick-wall type of player that all coaches love. And he's a second cousin of Justin Leppitsch, so he's been able to get some good advice and have some good conversations with him about his footy."

Mark Wheeler, Dandenong Stingrays talent manager

Rice as well!

Both Brandon and Bailey are practically best mates!

Looks like speed was posted in large letters in the recruiters room by Richo. We got our "smokey" (as I'm sure 17 other clubs did). Looks like maybe that third, rebounding defender who can play small or tallish and set up play from the back.

This mock has Gresham at 8 and Brandon at 31...overall is a very accurate mock when compared to the actual draft

Agree. If we want to win more clearances then Ross, Acres and Dunstan need to step up and improve their games.
We have now added plenty of run and some nice kicks. Just what we needed.

And people said Richo would have minimal impact on recruiting :roll:

Well we needed a new Great White Hope. Lets hope Brandon doesn't do 3 bouncing run and goal down the wing in the VFL to raise unrealistic hopes.

I'm a little unsure with regards to both him and Dean... How many running backs do we need?
Roberton, Webster, Savage, Acres, Gilbert... Both of these guys too.

Hopefully White can become a genuine mid

Inside mail on White is he ultra competitive and a very hard worker. Will develop into a quality outside mid who is a naturally gifted intercept marker and rebounding running back who reads the play exceptionally well and has elite power and speed. A natural footballer with a penetrating left foot. Can play taller than 188. Very committed and a genuinely good kid.

He could be even better than Buddy White, even though he was 15 picks lower in the draft. Big call!
