Welcome Noah Cumberland

Mmmm half time , small Brisbane forward guns Zac Bailey and L McCarthy have about 5 possessions each, 1 goal each and a couple of tackle’s each

Sound familiar

Have loved your work in this thread Merve Keane but that's more than Cumberland had for the full match last week so not the best comparison.:giggle:

To compare Cumberland to either of those players is ridiculous

The flashy stuff may wow most but the hard stuff impresses the purists.

Run your ass off today young Cumbo and don't loiter in the shadows.

He is a small to midsize forward
A really difficult position to play
I’m still confident that he can ultimately make it There will be peaks and troughs along the way
The only question for me is he mentally strong enough to deal with them
Don’t know him personally so can not judge on that

Totally devoid of confidence
Cumbo has been mind *smile* by all the nonsense going on
Seems lost not sure what’s required not being able to play his natural game
Needs to go back to VFL to get some confidence in his play

This.

It is a very difficult position to play. Clearly there are issues Cumbo needs to improve a lot, but the tools are there, I just hope the tough love approach is the right one for Cumberland because if we can get this right he will be a very valuable player.

I'm sure he's doing plenty wrong, and I'm sure that he has plenty of things he needs to be working on.
I still think he is not being well handled by his coach.
Reckon his high forward starting position is not helping.
Perfect game today to try and run him into form; for a confidence injection I would have had him spending time on the wing in space.
Instead, his confidence is now at an all time low.
