Jono O’Rourke

Featured Replies

Didn't really impress before that...

Watched him last week and he turned it over a lot. Would fit in perfectly.

 

I think he still has a bit in him.

Would be worth picking up, depending on the cost.

Has height for a mid, serious agility & pace, was a bloody good kick in juniors, supposedly is very competitive and has right attitude & would theoretically be a lot cheaper now.

 

Reminds me a little bit of Jordan Gysberts, if i'm honest I am a bit turned off the idea based on recent weeks

  • 1 month later...

Jay Clark just confirmed on Twitter that O'Rourke has requested a trade from the club. GWS want a first rounder in return.

Thoughts?

Dreaming if they think they will get a first rounder

Looks and plays like Cale Morton 2.0

No idea, would he be part of a Sam Frost deal?

They shouldn't get a first rounder for him, he hasn't shown enough.

Interesting hearing the Swans recruiter talking about Roos requirement was that they had to be a real competitor. I think this may count O'Rourke out.


O'Rourke for Toumpas staright swap.

Hell [censored] no

At least Toumpas was supposed to go at 2 in that draft. GWS just Prendergasted their picks.

I really hope 'Prendergasted' catches on.

Good stuff :)

One of the better trolls on here if I look at bites / attempt.

At least make it look like you're trying though. You're better than this.

No he's not.

If he had any degree of objectivity he'd realise O'Rourke has done nothing. Looks even less likely than Toumpas

He's had a year of throwing slaps at Toumpas so I guess it's just PF continuing his form into the off-season

Be good if you actually signed out of here.


Pfft, first round of the PSD is the only first round pick that will be used on O'Rouke again! His value is low. Shame for him really, but GWS gambled and it didn't pay off.

Will be dealt for a second round pick.

Pick 2+22 for Shiel + O'rourke + Frost.

Get it done Dees.

This would be a very good deal for the Dees. Hawthorn haven't expressed interest for no reason!

Anyone comparing O'Rourke to Morton is wide of the mark.

He might not be big bodied, but he has a sizeable frame to build on, and has a reputation for being very competitive, in spite of some of the comments here.

Hasn't really shown it yet 'Machsy' but if he is then I'm sure he will be in our sights.

I think I may have watched it to see a young Dom Tyson before he played for us, or maybe to see Shiel, but I watched a GWS video at one stage where they had the boys competing in a table tennis tournament to boost morale.

A bit of fun was being poked at O'Rourke because of how determined he was to win at even that, and how he absolutely hates losing.

I've also heard it mentioned from elsewhere.

Nothing amazing, but I'd say there are good reasons why he was chosen at pick 2, and even if it was a reach, he still would've been top 10.

Recruiting has come a long way in even just 5 years, and even with the substandard recruiting, I think we'd have still had a half decent return on those draftees if we hadnt combined it will substandard development.

  • 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.
