    RNR, I think the Papley inflatable is a great idea. Maybe when you're discussing it's features with your design team consider incorporating
    an esky backpack that "Tom" would wear and possibly a programmable audio feature where "Tom" boos opposition players about to
    take a shot at goal. The real Papley has a few strings to his bow as a player, and your inflatable "Tom" could reflect that with these
    extra features. There is a danger of course that your inflatable "Tom" could get lonely over the long, cold Sydney winters and you may
    be called upon to design a female companion for him. Anyway, I probably should leave it at that.

    Re Gretel Tippett:

    yes she was wonderful in the Commonwealth Games. Her athleticism combined with her Tippettesque height + her body positioning to deny the defender access to the ball + her nearly flawless goal shooting accuracy - made her almost perfect.

    Loved her quote that she was accustomed to being buffeted trying to win the ball having grown up with two brothers (well done Kurt and Joel).

    Ash Brazill has shown it’s possible to combine AFLW and netball (in her case for Collingwood). Though Ash did sit out the last season of AFLW in order to concentrate on her (very successful) bid for Commonwealth Games netball selection.

    Unfortunately, even if Gretel did choose an AFLW career she would likely play for Gold Coast not the Swans.

    I’m sure there would be a clause in her contract.
