It really was an incredible game from him. On at least 3 or 4 occasions he split the pack in the air to create a contest in our fwd line against 2 or 3 much taller opponents and brought the ball to ground. At his height he has no right to be able to do that. But he is one of our only fwds that actually lead inside fwd 50.

That last goal seconds of Tippa’s before the siren went, was an absolute ripper. It should be goal of the year, hardly see daylight through the posts. Only a couple of players are capable of kicking like that, the other player is the brilliant Eddie Betts.

As pointed out on the commentary after his second goal, the big body check to take out Goldstein in the marking contest, then crumb it for a goal. Just so smart.
Is he right or left foot?

He moved to Vic for school, so no
His ability to weave out of congested situations, avoid tacklers and still kick with accuracy is amazing to watch

For that last goal he was 1-2 inches away from pole axing #34, just before he snapped the goal.
Would not want to be on the end of that deltoid. Arms like Arnie

What do you mean?
He moved to Vic for school when he was in the middle of high school, we certainly didn’t put him straight on the VFL list then.
So what’s your take on AT’s version of events that I was responding to?
It wouldn’t add much to the conversation if I answered that, so I won’t.
The club clearly knew very well where he was at with his fitness and readiness, and it’s turned out very well.
