The Kurt Tippet Thread

ClarkyHeraldSun Only a matter of time before Gold Coast snares Crow Kurt Tippett. Suns confidence high.

Type of forward we need, guessing they would have to trade for him, should we have a crack?

 

If GC have a chance at snaring Tippet it's because he's a Gold Coast boy and wants to head back home. I doubt we'd get a look in.

if they lose taylor walker aswell, they will be knee deep in poopy

 

Tippett would be great with a hard arsed coach...He has massive talent, but is lazy right now.

Walker has re-signed

as has Mckernan

Tippet is going home, due to him apparently having a get out clause for only a second and third round pick to the club of his choice at the end of next season Crazy i know, Crows will get something decent while they can, from Goldcoast which is where he wants to go,

Maybe some sly business from GC, getting Tippet to put this into his contract, then steal Bock for free, then get tippet the next year......

I'd go after Kurt Tippet.

Agree. He's no more of a long shot than Clark other than he is in contract and will be morke expensive. He's someone I would happily trade 2 first rounders for.

The Lions were thinking that picks 8 & 12 would be enough. If we were serious, i'd throw pick 12 and a compo pick at them.

But there is no chance of landing him. Crows no doubt want the best compo for him, but why would he come to Melbourne when he has stated he wants to go back home. Mitch Clark all over again.

I think you're right but still worth enquiring. We certainly rattled Mitch Clark with our offer and sometimes the reason for leaving could be hidden, You're not exactly going to say "Hey coach, can you trade me?, this place is a s@#t hole"

I'm sure we have made an offer to him. Seeing as we made Clark an offer. So let's see.

I hope we go hard. Tippet is a gun!


The trouble is that he can't kick accurately and, as far as I can recall, has never been able to kick accurately. I feel that we are attracted to the idea of a highly performing Tippett rather than the reality. The sum certainly doesn't equal the parts imo.

Is Tippett really worth that much more than Clark?

Or is it only because he is contracted?

Well he is contracted for 1 year. Tippett is the better forward while Clark would probably be the better Ruck and around the ground.

Agreed. Not a Tippett fan at all. Was in the basketball system too long and doesn't have the footy nouse that I think Clark has. I'd actually take Clark over Tippett all things equal.

Another positive out of trading with Brisbane- they now have the ammo to lure Tippet. Why is this good?

Because it keeps him away from GC. GC are going to be a threat to us, so every decent footballer they fail to lure is a positive for us. Will be happy if he ends up at Brisbane, as I don't see them as a threat to our window.

Still wouldn't mind getting Tippet, but we probably need to take two top midfielders next year with our compo picks.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
