Gach Nyuon with a late pick?

Really like the look of him from what I have seen! Anyone else see the potential here?

 

They had a write up in the local about him apparently dominated in the last half of the TAC season worth a look

 

No thanks, let's just rookie the best state league ruckman as backup.

I'm sure we will have someone in mind, fair chance it will be a ready to go after letting Jamar and Fitz go.

Maybe at Pick 6 in the Rookie Draft, but if Andre Parella is also available there, then i'd rather him. Really aggressive!

 

I don't mind young Gach. He'll take a bit of work, but physically he has everything he needs to make it. As always, bear in mind that rucks generally take a while. Four or five years work and I think we'd have a very handy player.

In the Academy vs the Northern Blues game I remember watching him kick to the man on the mark 5 metres away than stand still as he let his opponent run inside 50m, wasn't very impressive at the time. Definitely has come a long way since the academy games I saw him in and was impressive in the u18 Champs.

Lacks aggression but has all the other tools to make it as a ruckman in the AFL, I can see him being taken before our second batch of picks as I see Gach as just about the only ruckman worthy of being drafted this year from the u18 pool based on talent.

Sounds to me like he'd be a rookie list prospect, if anything.

Pass...not for us

We should be on the lookout for a backup ruckman that can go forward and kicks goals. Takes the pressure off Hogan a bit. Unfortunately Spencer doesn't offer this.

He is more of a 'wrecking ball' type ruckman that is not a great kick and might take a mark once in a fortnight. We are a bit light on for a bit of quality in this department and I hope the club are addressing this.

For those in the know, does King provide and option here? Is he coming along at all?

Was just delisted by Essendon. Didn't see much of him in the VFL.

Since being drafted all I can remember about him was that he was arrested for drunken death threats against an uber driver.

Anyone seen his development over the past 12 months?

Sounds great! 

Probably the harshest player reviews I've ever seen. And with that off field incident maybe they aren't wrong.

Scathing and kinda unprofessional.

Looks like it's a big no though.


Would take him, the uber incident was out of character as he's normally a very calm person.

The review was pretty tough - equated the beers had the night before with amount of disposals. If we follow that logic, twenty beers may equate to twenty disposals and so on and so forth. I haven't even factored in spirits. It's a big yes from me.

How is his first or Christian name pronounced?

Is it "Gash"?

If so, I'd cut him some slack.

I hear you are up for Romsay's multicultural ambassador award. Is that kind of like the Sir Les Patterson of Romsay award?

I would be proud to win an award that carried that great Australian's name.

 

BTW knucklehead it's Romsey!

  • 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.
