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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
