Connor Idun has done key defensive jobs in the TAC cup for the Falcons and Vic Country over the last 2 years.  He also swung forward at times with some success.  He was selected at full back in the TAC team of the year.

He has a combine invite and will likely be taken later in the draft I would guess.

Connors playing height at the start if the year was 189 but he is more than that now.  He has a very strong build and could play senior footy straight away.

He is an excellent judge of the ball in flight and has excellent hands.  Has great agility and sideways movement and is a neat kick.  He also has great game sense and is a natural leader having captained the Falcons when Sam Walsh was absent.

Further to that he is a really humble, smart and respectful kid who will work hard and contribute to the culture of a football club.

I would not be at all surprised if Connor forged himself a very good to excellent career.  He would be ideally suited to the third tall defensive position. 

His only knocks would be his pace in a straight line, and possibly a lack of height to play a true kpd spot but he might have grown a little more since I last saw him.

Disclaimer: I know Connor well and have coached him at local level.  I have watched him rise as a junior playing with my boys.  Having said that I am pretty objective, I think the kid has a lot of attributes, both physical and mental that will give him a big chance of being a good senior AFL footballer.

    Like it.

    Can you suggest another one or two for this year, Stretch?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.
