Pleasingly it was probably the first time he & Dusty have played together where one of them at least has actually played well.

.....i thought he added a spark & intensity from a player with size missing all year.
The problem is, many of us are only able to watch a game on TV and are limited to what the cameras show so we miss much of the off the ball action so we tend to criticise a play who screws up in front of the camera and miss the other stuff
So you have said previously?And you can verify that the papers have been stamped?Were you there at the time?
I went to the game as I always do. Stated I thought he had a so so game. Didnt use the ball to well.
But he did play to structure and was trying to play to the system, cutting off space, pressuring the opposition, and chasing.
In the air was no match for ridley.
He missed two easy shots. The first one was similar to the picket one in the 1st qtr and should've got it but in the last qtr needed to nail that from 15 mtrs slight angle.
Also, someone said he went to ground too easily well if you're semi-running back to your man and a 6ft 5" (100+ kilo) player gives you a decent bump you're going down especially when you don't expect it.
Furthermore, he should've received a free, could you imagine if one of our players knocked stringer down the whistle would've blown.
I've seen umps pay frees for a push to the face.

First hand from someone at the club who is leaving the club. Don't shoot the messenger im a cumbucket fan and want to keep him but unfortunately he's done
Sounds like a mate told me who heard it from the cleaning person who overheard it from a rumour...................
Must admit it's more exciting than watching the Tiges this year.
And unlike the Tiges, at least they don't miss the money shot.
I don’t think he would be playing in the seniors if his papers are already stamped. There would be no point.
Cumbo had 2 guilt edged chances on Saturday night and fluffed both of them. Maybe we would be looking at his game a little differently if he kicked those. The thing is that in 2022 he would have kicked them.
Yep he would have nailed them in 2022. Cumbo now is a mental wreck. Needs to snap out of it, keep it simple, have fun and play to his instincts.
unlike a lot, my judgement is not based on goals kicked.
our structure is so poor due to injuries & atrocious recruiting, goals kicked presently are irrelevant.
my priorities are speed, appetite for contest, play reading & size requirements.
i truly believe kicking technique is correctable & over rated in recruiting.

He might’ve had the most 'pressure acts,'
But not once did he stop Ridley mark the ball.
And that sitter he missed was delist material.
The man he played on was Best on Ground, but I guess he tried hard.
