This guy goes to my school and I wouldn't expect many people to have heard of him but he plays for Gippsland Power in the TAC cup and has been the deputy vice captain all year. He has a MASSIVE engine already (14-15+ beep test) and while he is not the fastest player, he will run all day. They have had him playing at full forward all year with stints on the wing, but for me it seems a bit of a waste as he would be suited to the wing area more often with his endurance and also he is not quite the size of a FF (188cm, 78kg), although he has failed to kick a goal only once for the year!

He is quite a good user of the ball when he is on the wing and has quite a decent leap and can take pack marks if needed although he has said they're not his thing. He has had an agent for a large part of the year and has had interest from rival clubs.

I think he seems quite a good fit for us as we have a few players who can get the ball on the inside and so he seems like he could slot in well as he could be an outside player who uses the ball well.

He's also a Dees supporter! :)

Any thoughts?

My thought is thanks for pointing him out.

He may /may not make it but I haven't seen him and there may be plenty at the club who haven't but thanks to you they may well now look.

Keep the faith.

I can run a 14 plus beep test, yet I am a spud, so don't read too much into the beep tests.

I'm from Gippsland and have cousins in the Power system, so I'll ask around.

Anthony Tipungwuti is the player to watch from the Power Under 18s. Young fast forward pocket who moved from NT. Likely rookie type if we miss out on Gartlett in the national draft. We need a quick small forward who crumbs and tackles.

Yeah his numbers aren't bad either! Garlett and then Muir with a later pick with Tipungwuti as a rookie :)

He has played for Casey Scorpions this year too.

Gippsland Power played today in their preliminary final against Sandringham and won. Muir was named 2nd best without any goals so I would say he has been moved up to the wing/mid area now.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
