In a new feature on kangaroos.com.au, we'll be following each of North Melbourne's new additions on the training track in the lead-up to the NAB Cup.

When Shaun Atley was still be available for North's first selection (17) in the 2010 National Draft, the club's recruiters swooped on the agile and speedy midfielder.

The 18 year-old has strong ball-winning ability and has already impressed on the training track since arriving at Arden Street only two months ago.

On Wednesday, January 20, our cameras were focused on Atley as he went one-on-one with older and more experienced opponents.

Check out the video above for training vision, comments from assistant coach Darren Crocker and the final word from Atley.
