Tom Murphy

2016 Dandenong 55 26 81 25 0 0 16 3 0 0 0 11 8 6.9 3.3 10.1 3.1 0.4 2.0 1.4
2017 Dandenong 157 101 258 57 101 171 52 0 39 55 36 6 14 11.2 7.2 18.4 4.1 0.0 3.7 0.4
Total - 212 127 339 82 101 171 68 3 39 55 36 17 22 18.1 10.5 28.5 7.2 0.4 5.7 1.8
STRENGTH: Kicking, vision, versatility, vertical jump
IMPROVEMENTS: Consistency, inside game

SUMMARY: Tom Murphy is an interesting prospect who given a clear run of injuries, could be a diamond in the rough. He has shown over the past 18 months he can play anywhere on the field, often settling at half-back or on a wing. He is a fantastic kick and is able to pinpoint passes across any distance, while he also impressed at the Victorian State Combine with his vertical jump score of 67cm despite coming off injury at times this year. His consistency needs to improve as does his inside game, but there’s a bit to work with when it comes to Murphy.

So who is Thomas Murphy?

Played for Hawthorn 13 years ago

 

[kangaspurs]

Sounds a bit like the guy that we took last rookie draft. Haha I've already forgotten his name.

 

[andana]

Why would Brisbane or GC take him before hand?

Rookies are paid less than ND taken players so maybe they need that extra player on the primary list to bring their cap up to the minimum?

Don't know. Probably come out why later today.

 

[Sheezel2Wardlaw]

LT to Port! Congrats Boofa!

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Lindsay gets to port

 

[Snake_Baker]

Hawthorn took Harry Jones.

 

[Jindrrk]

Cats lose Lang and pick up Crameri.

We took Gordon Narrier! Excitement machine

 

[tiltraise]

Gordon Narrier

 

[Roo Beauty]

Gordon Narrier, teammate of Kyron Hayden I believe. Might help them both settle.

 

[Nutjob]

Snapping up Wagner would be a dick move by the Cats.

Why?
Once we delist him he is free game to go to whoever values him higher than us. We do have a pick before the cats, so we have an opportunity to take him if we really want him.
The only scenario where I see a club doing "dick move" would be if the player has had years of injuries and we have stuck by the player through that time. An example is cam Delaney who coincidentally went to Geelong.

I just now got the NMFC tweet about Narrier. BF posters on the ball as usual. /not sarcasm

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Hanson misses again, he'd have to be wondering what he has to do
