Set to play a string of games with the Kangaroos, the Glenorchy talent collected 17 touches, seven marks and a third-term goal in the 19.17 (131) to 3.6 (24) loss to Casey Demons.
"He's gone really well which isn't a surprise to us - the really standout players in the TSL like Harrison, they are VFL quality footballers without a shadow of a doubt," Glenorchy coach Paul Kennedy said on Thursday.
"We're hoping he'll get that opportunity to step up to the highest level soon."
North Launceston utility Tom Donnelly applied great pressure to finish with nine touches and six tackles while AFL-listed Roo Patrick Walker had 15 disposals and five marks.
A handful of Tasmanians played in last week's loss to Frankston with teenage Northern Bomber Ollie Sanders (12 touches and a goal) one of the side's best.
The Kangaroos are 0-3 after three heavy defeats to start the season and face Southport at 2pm next Saturday.
