I don't think we'll have to use our 2nd rounder on Stretch.

He'd need to show some serious improvement for other teams to bid in the first round.

Even then, I don't think we'd be certainties to match.

I think he's a bit light, & would take 2 or 3 yrs on the list to build up for todays contested footy. I reckon somewhere around the mid to late 30's for that type.

    I wouldnt give up that much for Tomlinson.

    maybe

    pick 6 and 3rd rounder for Tomlinson and pick 20

    You say you wouldn't give up that much for him and then proffer pick 6 and a 3rd rounder. Horrible deal, IMO. I wouldn't go for him, but if we did, there's no way we'd give up a first rounder for him, particularly a top 10 pick.

    If we lose chip we should trade picks 5,6, 24 and blease for treloar, Patton and orourke

    If we caught them after a 5 day drinking session.

    I would either give up Pick 3-4 for Adam Treloar, or HOLD and get Angus Brayshaw. Both will be absolute stars.

    I'd give up pick 3 for Treloar in a heart beat, where do we sign up!

    Pick 3 or 4, for Treloar/Shiel, would be seen as a big win for us.

    I'd say that's a fair self reflection. Well done.

    Potential is there, needs some work and development and will be atleast a 'good player.' Second rounder or Blease for O'Rourke with a swap of later picks?

    Against a make up team from GC who can't field a full reserves side, in the NEAFL where Mitchell gets 60+ and Kola....from GC before playing ones got into the 40's before they stopped counting.

    O'Rourke may or may not be a good get but he's most certainly not worth a 1st rounder at present, he needs to be picking up 30's to 40's to get back in the AFL team then start getting some 20 +'s and a rising star nomination to be worth that I would think.

    • 2 months later...

    Off contract at the end the season. Only managed 7 games over the past two seasons after being taken at pick 2 in 2012.

    I think he is definitely worth looking into. What would be a reasonable offer?

  • Quote

    Every mark I saw him go at last week was one-handed, and he turned it over time and time again.

    Morton-esque performance.

    Let's see how he goes in the remainder of the season, but at this stage he'd have the same value as a Toumpas - probably second rounder.

  • Quote

    Probably a second rounder, wouldn't get near our high picks unless we got another top 10 pick back and even then I would be very hesitant

    but I do rate him as a player, just need to see a bit more before he is worth a big investment

    Perhaps another Dom Tyson kind of trade where by we trade our pick 4 (Frawley compensation pick hopefully) for O'Rourke and a pick in the 7-10 bracket? Possibly with a swap of later picks in our favour?

    Just wondering if now if the time to get him before he improves and value rockets. Obviously that may never happen (story of MFC's life)

    He's no where near Tyson as a player, Tyson always showed something. O'Rourke hasn't to date so no he is not worth a first round pick even if we get one back.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • 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.
