Retired #43: Anthony "Walla" McDonald-Tipungwuti - Wins a flag with the Mildura Imperials

[Lore]

Contract Status: Unrestricted Free Agent 2023
My Boy Draft 2023: Pick 5, citizen-erased

 

[Old Campaigner]

Turns 28 next month. Love the guy but has to step up and be more consistent this season.

Like all forwards his output is largely dependent on what is happening further up the ground. Our midfield has been inconsistent at best for pretty much the entirety of his career so it’s not surprising he has been underperforming compared to what we think he’s probably capable of.

Grubbers are all the go. Grub it in and lock it down is modern footy 101

The gap between Tippa and every other player on our list kicking inside 50 is enormous. If he averaged 15 per game he'd be an AA small forward.

In 2019 he averaged 11, down to 9 last year, 15 isn't out of the question if we can pick up our forward half game IMO.

One of my favourite games Tip has played for the club. Skills were great as usual but it was his aggression which I loved. He was tackling campaigners like they owed him money. Such a barometer for the team.

The fact that Snelling , Smith , Stringer and even Jones where putting on decent pressure helped his game over 4 quarters. There was no burn out factor from being the player chasing everyone.

Even Jones? I’d say his forward pressure has been a clear strength across his first 3 games.

Even Jones as in for a big bloke he was just as good

100 consecutive games this weekend v Brisbane.

Incredible durability.

Wow 100 consecutive games. That's incredible. I knew he was above 60 but had no idea he had that many.
Starting to get into rare space now.
Lets hope he can have a big one.

Deserves a bump. 5 goals!

One 30 year old bloke for the Tiwi Bombers just had a freakish highlights package come out. Ross Tungatalum.

All time Walla

 

[ghostdog]

Fantastic forward pressure and defensive pressure as well. Earned his goals. Peak Walla!

I winced when he tumbled and nearly landed on his head.

And nearly broke his wrists in the process. Seems superhuman at times.

Very smart play picking up that ball over the boundary line and playing on as if everything was normal.

Fooled them all.

The footage after the goal of all the Collingwood ferals going ballistic in a rage while pointing to the line was tremendous fun to see.

 

[yodellinhank]

Was interesting Walla v Quaynor. Both very impactful on the game.

 

[JayJ20]

Walla plays his best football at the MCG

 

[boncer34]

His opening effort for the game was abysmal. He then exploded and was brilliant.

Funny game - Quaynor generally had the better of him 1:1 but Tippa was able to lose him in traffic and finish with 5. His finishing was quite outrageous.

Quaynor is going to be a seriously good player

AMT is a freak though.. that was one of the best bags of 5 you’ll see from a small forward
