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?

    • 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.
