Emerging forward Cameron Zurhaar has been promoted to the North Melbourne senior list.

Zurhaar has played ten matches for Werribee this season, after joining the club as its first rookie selection in 2016.

Speaking on Thursday at Arden Street, Brad Scott praised the 19-year-old's form.

"He plays with real verve and energy and he's got some genuine power," Scott said.

"He doesn't shirk any contests. For a first year player, he looks like a 25-year-old out there.

"He's really taken all before him the last couple of weeks. There are still some areas of his game that we want to sharpen up, and he's really made some solid improvements. That's why he's in the mix for selection."
