guy has become a star player, media ride him hard and he is not getting the credit he deserves IMO


Had a great 2nd half of the year last year and started this year in a dominant way

Looking forward to Round 4 :)
 
Would like to see him throw his bulk around at Mummy in Round 3. That might stop Mummy from trying to pick off of young kids.

Go Bloods!!!

Tippo has been better than good since day one, the haters we off the mark questioning his worth. We were playing a shite game plan which made his job harder.

He was statistically very good to excellent in his first two seasons, before dropping off a bit in the first half of last year. I still can't believe people thought he was underperforming.

He re-signed. So he's alright with me.

Probably the most authoritative player on our list when he clicks into gear :thumbsu:
 
Since returning against Adelaide last season Tippett has averaged around 15.7 disposals, 5.9 marks, 2.3 goals, 3.8 tackles, 21.3 hitouts from 10 games.

Move to number one ruck has elevated what he gave us in the first two years

He was pretty good playing as a power forward, but that's gotta wear you down when you have to beat 3 opposition players every contest.
Has demonstrated that his best football comes when he plays ruck/forward. Not as bullocking as Mummy but 10 times better up forward.
 
Carey said we should trade him :straining:

There was a whole self congratulatory meme in commentator circles for a while there about how we had to move our top players on and rebuild. Tippo, Hannas, Parker, Reid, Mitchell...everything must go.

Lolwhat.

Dont disagree

Just think he was a b grader overall before

Still never as bad as guys like wayne carey said
 
I think he's been fantastic since we picked him up. The expectation was all around the dollars we paid for him and the pundits wanted him to be a monster power forward for us kicking 80 goals + a season.

I must admit when they first moved him into the ruck I thought it might dilute his value a little but he's been brilliant early on and he's still adding great value in the forward line.

He's a keeper.
 
Love the big Tip Truck. When he clicks into beast mode... Phew, sheesh... lookout! He's damn near unstoppable IMO.

I just wanted to see more aggression from him than he's shown. More mongrel. Go in hard, smash contests, bust packs, make sure the other blokes know you're around. His biggest failing is not taking the game by the scruff of the neck and ragdolling it a little IMO. When he's got that fire about him he's arguably one of the most damaging players in the AFL. I love watching him in full flight, particularly the contested marking coming out of the goal square. He can be a beast of a man at times and he's proved that at the end of last season and early this year. I hope it continues.
