Kurt Tippett

"And the Crows are learning of a third club - one based in Melbourne rather than AFL premier Sydney - that has joined Queensland-based clubs Gold Coast and Brisbane in seeking the 25-year-old giant."

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...... Let's hope Tip has a bit of Mitch Clark syndrome when it comes to his homesickness cure

Pick 4 is overs.

Pick 13 and a half decent player may be more suitable. Maybe Martin.

Or pick 4 and pick 45 for Tippet and their first rounder

There are a lot of similarities between Tippett and Martin. Obviously Tippett is much better, but with their basketball backgrounds they have similar traits in how they move I feel.

We'd have the $ but not much more to attract him with.

Gee its a serious forward line with Clark and Tippett up there.


I reckon we are doing the rounds...missed out on Lynch, now after Tippett.

We probably have options 3 and 4 as well, probably being Gumbleton and Butcher.

Interesting the hearld sun has reported a offer from a major based Melbourne club. Thoughts on who??

Us to force GC's hand on pick 2 :) (i am not even sure if i am joking)

One thing is for sure though- if Tippet came here it would be only for money.

Everyone cool with the decision to bring in a mercenary and the ramifications that may have on our efforts to rebuild culture?

I don't want a Scully type on the list. Been down that road. Ended up crashing at the Lie rd, daddy likes cream puffs rd intersection.

Yes. We weren't getting Clark for $300k and a free tour of the MCC Long Room. It didn't take him long to invest himself in the place though.

We're going to have to pony up if we want a star like Tippett.

But I'd LOVE another Mitch Clark on our list...


Confirmed (albeit via facebook) that Tip is definitely leaving Adelaide, and has told them so.

Looking for another source now...

Any mature recruit we get will a have a sense of the mercs about them. Even if it is only a perception.

Look at Clark - we know how invested he is in the place, but the perception remains that he is at the club for coin and do you think I give a flying fruitcake?

Bet your arse I don't.

The Crows say they have been told there is a "wildcard'' offer to Tippett beyond those of Gold Coast and Brisbane.

But they say this is not from the Swans but a major Melbourne-based club.

Are we a major Melbourne-based club??

Are we a major Melbourne-based club??

Technically we are the ONLY "Melbourne" based club, so yes.

Is Mitch Clark also a mercenary who has detracted from our club's culture?

If I ws a bettting man then Id be putting money on that Visy-scum :o

If GC have to give up pick 2 because of this = Win

If Kurt Tippet comes to us = Win

Can't really see too much downside of this...that being said I'm still not convinved it's definitely us with the offer

FB has it that Carlton is the major club; may have to trade Gibbs back to SA.

He was also attracted here by the role we were offering him- full forward. That is enough for me.

Unless there is another reason other than money for a guy in Kurt's position (in a club pushing for a flag) I think if there are other options you should go for them.

And I was pushing for Cloke. Think I have to re-assess my posiotion on that.

Also- if GC are interested and we steal him off them, you can betyourarse that GC will bid on Viney.

Lock it in FattyMcChins!

About the only way they could make room in the salary cap as well, although they could offer him a job with Visy.

Only we won't be able to "steal" him until after f/s bidding next monday.

keep in mind Carlton are after a primary forward first up...thats Tippet.. Lynch isnt a #1 forward.

Carlton wanted Cloke... Tippet will do them fine.

  • 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.
