Brayden Rioli, brother of Richmond premiership forward Daniel, will be unleashed on the national stage alongside his cousins Maurice Rioli jnr and Jacob Long next week.

They are all part of the Northern Territory Thunder team for the NAB AFL Under-16 Championships and will follow in the footsteps of their legendary family members.

"(Brayden and Maurice) are totally different players," Campbell told AFL.com.au.

"Maurice loves to get in and under and tackle and put pressure on, whereas Brayden is your typical Tiwi Islands player who loves a goal and has that X-factor about him.

Campbell said the talented trio earned their squad spots on their work ethic, as much as their ability.

"We try not to pick players on names, but the fact they turn up and come to training," he said.

"They know the history. I'm sure Maurice Rioli will deal with the pressure of being a Rioli and the footsteps to follow, but he turns up and works hard.

"He's not out there saying, 'Give me the ball, because I'm a Rioli'. He's out there saying, 'Hey, I'm your teammate, I'm going to help you win'.

"We're also mindful that just because he has that name, we don't want to drop him in the deep end and say, 'You're a Rioli, you need to go out there and play well'."

The NT's first game is against NSW/ACT at Blacktown International Sports Park on Monday.

They already have changed the rules since Geelongs windfall, namely the bidding process

Just read on BF (yes I know) that Essendon will have first dibs on him as he's in their academy zone....

Why? Maurice junior is going through the normal underage system. He's not some kid out in the sticks who has hardly played the game before. We don't get first dibs on TAC Cup kids from Northern Victoria because it's our academy zone.

Also, as I understand, you have to actually attend their "academy", not just be zoned in it.

Lel at Essendon nuffies desperate for a Rioli.

The Next Generation Academy system covers indigenous players... :shh

Junior is playing his footy in Victoria now and is already covered under the father-son rule, Brayden Rioli is not a father-son... :shh :shh

Was a Richmond poster who brought it up over there, not an Essendon nuffie... :shh :shh :shh

Ah cheers.

Worst case scenario Essenbum get "rights" to him, and he nominates the bummers, do other clubs have a right to nominate him and force Essendumb to use up picks in order to block a selection, a la FS rules?
