Ah yes, another elite West Australian talent in Arthur Jones having a ripping last quarter tonight.

Wasn’t he eligible to be tied to our NGA program?

Indeed, coming from Mt Barker he was eligible for it.

Apparently, the club were keen to sign him up but he knocked back the offer.

Taken at pick 43, so any bid that late in the draft could have been matched as well.

Is Tippa only in the Essendon team to increase the average weight?

How he gets a game when he clearly isnt in AFL condition is beyond me.
 
Why did he knock it back? Can’t read it. How often do NGAs reject it?
You'd think our esteemed recruitment team could afford to take the time to make a visit and explain how things work and what's involved rather than just fire off emails to these kids. Maybe a follow up phone call or two couldn't hurt either.
 
He didn't understand the contract so never signed it but continued to train with WCE NGA anyway, according to his pre-draft interview.
