Well it seems like he can play and has a good mature body for AFL. Daniel Rich type or Josh Hunt. Laser left foot. Didn't see much of him at Casey- anyone else?

To me he will always be known as Paws (or pause) as in Pick number 11 Luke................................................................................................................Tapscott.

    Living in Canberra I have very little to base an opinion on, but I'm encouraged by some of the positive vibes that have emanated from this place over the last 12 months. I just hope that he has an uninterrupted pre-season, so that we can all see what he has to offer in 2011.

    I heard mid year that he fell/tackled on/onto a sprinkler at training hence the hip problem

    Sauce? Neighbor of Trengove's boarding family

    (he thinks it was Trengove's, he's a pies supporter so not big on Dees players names)

    I think he slipped on a sprinkler head cap or something similar.

    I recall reading it somewhere.

    When he did get in the VFL side he managed to do some nice things and his delivery into the forward line was particularly pleasing to watch.

    Lovely kick on the kid.

    He'll be alright, I've seen enough already.

    Will play AFL in 2011 barring a freak injury.

    I always preferred the nickname of Balls, --the pause --expecting Ball -- the new Rodney Grinter

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
