The original was ahead of its time. Much like Twin Peaks. Both came out around the same time too. Its plot twists and narrative arc is amazing for a show that was only 9 episodes.

What is on the video? When I clicked on the link it said that it is not available?

Brett Anderson reporting that there is a 'very good chance' he is at another club next year.

The man famously picked by Melbourne ahead of Ollie Wines appears to be on the way out of the club after three underwhelming years as a Demon.

Each of their careers could not have started any differently with Wines soaring to elite status at Port Adelaide, while Toumpas managed just 13 games in the last two seasons.

“Jimmy’s name came up last year and has come up again this year,” said SEN draft expert Brett Anderson.

“I think there is a very good chance that he probably plays at another footy club next year.

“He was a pick four and I think there was 17 other clubs that would have taken him ahead of Ollie Wines.

“All the talk of they took the wrong player, hindsight’s a wonderful thing.”

I wonder how many of the 17 would still be thinking he's worth a crack. They have their chance now


I know I'm well and truly in the minority here but if we've been patient with Watts I think we should give Toumpas at least another year. Still think he will end up being a solid player.

It is sad how any demonlanders have acted as if there were zero other clubs who would have made the same drafting decision, not 17.

at least 17. the only one who maybe, probably wouldn't have picked him was gws.

and that's cos their preference was to always draft victorians other sa, wa boys.

Can see a Morton like trade occurring. ToumpAs for pick 65

We've been patient with Watts...and hes still not there. We're so enamoured we've shopped him and no takers.

This is the reason we should persist also with Toumpas ?

Haven't sold me !!

Just threw up in my mouth a little.

It's the same with every single other high draft pick of recent years that has turned out to be a failure

They all picked themselves

Might get Moore and a late pick for him from Port or one of the SA clubs could on-trade something to Brisbane or Gold Coast in our bid to get Redden or Bennell?

That is just not true.

Both Gysberts and Cook were first round draft picks that were not expected to go where they eventually went.

Sad isnt it. While dont think his value is quite that low, its not going to be pretty.

I honestly believe our drafting hoodoo's are behind us now. We simply can not afford to make such mistakes any longer.

Absolutely. Giving him away for chump change now would be essentially giving up on him, which would run contrary to everything Roos was saying prior to this season.

Toump can still become a decent player. We've seen the talent he has in glimpses. It's just going to take patience. I'll be disappointed if we basically chuck in the towel and give him away for nothing.

E

Staggers me that some grown adults can't differentiate between he's and his. I mean, honestly. The mind boggles.

Whilst I am a genuine pedant, just maybe autocorrect has had some influence. Can do strange things, sometimes.

My opinion is he is on the table, if we can fetch something decent, such as a 2nd rounder, he is traded. If not, and depending how the list looks after trade period, he re-signs.

Seems a pretty reasonable summation

It is sad how any demonlanders have acted as if there were zero other clubs who would have made the same drafting decision, not 17.

But the usual suspects will no doubt come out with "I told you so " or some variant.

Nearly everyone accepts he was rated a top 3 draft pick, let alone pick 4, so it's just one of those things.

I'd get rid of him now while he might have some value.

Keep turning the list over.

Not Sure what the fuss is about Moore skills just average, since being drafted has only played in dribs and drabs?

That is just not true.

Both Gysberts and Cook were first round draft picks that were not expected to go where they eventually went.

they were pick 11 and 12 that's obviously not the same as the top 5 is it

pedantic contrarian

  • 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

    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.
