Kurt Tippett

Featured Replies

If.....and I know this is a big if...... Tippett attempts to get to the Swans through the PSD like Ball then someone must pick him up before them. The fact Ball was able to rort the system like he did has set a dangerous precendent where players seem to think they can nominate where they want to go, hold their own and other interested clubs to ransom by threatening not to play etc and get what they want. Someone needed to take Ball even if he sat out 2 years, that draft rorting could have won the pies a flag and has made trading very difficult for the players original club.

Bump, Called it!

 

Personally I think it is a big mistake for Sydney and goes against the way they have built their famous culture but lets wait and see.

I also don't believe they didn't know about the contract arrangement Tippett had to move to the club of his choice, why else would they have thought they would have any chance of picking him up with little to offer Adelaide in return.

Remember, he wasn't a free agent.

The AFL then opened the path to Sydney with their manipulation of the draft.

Its a huge rort, being banned from the ND was meant to be punishment for Tippett, but ultimately it was punishment for the 16 teams that could have picked him before Sydney, also this putting a price on your head only one club can pay seems bizarre in terms of draft tampering. Also it seems weird that the AFL told GWS they couldn't afford it, maybe they just didn't want a Tippett driven lawsuit? Anyway, first Ball, now Tippett.. its a slippery slope to powerful teams buying their players while poorer clubs fight over the scraps.

 

Hope someone knocks him senseless. I intensely dislike players who just march out on their club, yet somehow call the shots and get away with it. It's mental that he was able to walk out on Adelaide, bypass the draft, then put a magical price on his head that apparently only the reigning premiers can match? Mental.
Nothing would please me more than to see someone absolute bury this c*nt on field. He's had a few concussions this year, another one seems par for the course!

Where have you been for the last three years?

He did not walk.

Three years ago when his contract was up he told Adelaide to trade him because he didn't want to be there, they offered him big $$$ to stay and he said OK but only for three years and then I want out to the club of my choice and Adelaide agreed.

Now at the end of three years he wants Adelaide to stick to their agreement.

You are the type of person who should not be allowed to belong to any forum ie people who make nasty comments without knowing what they are talking about.

Resign and get a life away from here.

Rnd 11, Sat June 8th at 4.10pm I will be glued to the tele watching Kurt be greeted by the Adelaide faithful at AAMI stadium when they take on Sydney. Should be fun

Edit. Probably still suspended

Edited by fndee

He is. Last round of his suspension.

 
He is. Last round of his suspension.
I'm surprised the AFL did not make his return from suspension coincide with the Crows game.

Imagine the interest, the size of the crowd and the TV ratings.

A marketing dream and right up with the AFL's set of standards.

I don't think, even if he was suspended for 10 rounds, that he'd necessarily come back in round 11.

He might not even come back in round 11 - he might need some match play as opposed to training only first.

Half a season is a long time not to be able to play competitive football. Only taking part in training is one thing, but playing the game is a whole other.

  • 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.
