Traded #3: Scott Gumbleton - Traded to Fremantle for pick 55

[Red Black and Blue]

Near certainty to line up means he is going to miss for sure.

 

[Frothies Mcveigh]

Has been going well at training so I hope he plays well. Has anything been said about whether Neagle is playing, would be good to see how those 2 function together.

8 goals, 14 marks and 38 possessions or I will not be happy.

 

[bombermick]

He's got to play. This saga is quickly getting old. Doesn't matter how he plays in this match, so long as he plays and stays fit.

 

[Blowfly]

8 goals, 14 marks and 38 possessions or I will not be happy.

From 50% game time

 

[Lance Uppercut]

I embarrassed myself with this thread and am grateful to Ben for sparing my blushes.

From 50% game time

Gumbleton gets MASSIVELY underated on this board!!!

 

[Kong]

the king is dead, long live the king

One of these days... I'll step back into my throne.

 

[topdon]

Careful ... he may impale himself on a knife!

^This. nah srsly, I might forgive him for getting 7.1.. but it better be a poster or touched on the line.

Serious question, should we "rest" him for Rnd1? I dont like the sound of gumby taking on those hardened, experienced cats defence...
Just imagining him getting crunched in a marking contest by scarlett and taylor...
I dont want him to get any kind of injury for him to get rested, maybe just a splinter on his finger or something and the club can just say it was a "niggle"..

 

[Frothies Mcveigh]

Nah I think he needs to play against the cats. Will be good experiance against the likes of Scarlett and Taylor.

^ HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA

nice on cmc

 

[Rack Watts]

I like that CMC lol, made that on icanhascheezburger.com?

 

[stay true]

I lolt too, but should we wait til he plays first before we partake in such activities? Don't wanna jinx it... again. Just sayin.

Gumbleton needs to play this week to have any chance of being selected for Round 1.

 

[Frothies Mcveigh]

Re: 3. Scott Gumbleton

Wish I could go, would be good to see him first hand.

 

[homerg29]

Gumby needs to play, give us SOMETHING other than more injuries!

 

[Pevers-Legend]

Time to unleash him.

He needs games - play him.

Fajeeks - i just want him and Hurley in the fwd line.

What a friggin mouth watering prospect.

Alll we need to do is win enough footy and supply the fwd line.

BRING ON 2010

 

[Jade]

Fajeeks - i just want him and Hurley in the fwd line.

I know we are trying to be 'responsible' by stating that Hurley could play back etc etc.

But for **** sake - lets just put these two together and tell them, have at it in the forward line.

Rumble young man, rumble.

 

[AhSteveSteve27]

Anyone know if he's starting or being subbed on later?

Re: 3. Scott Gumbleton

im hoping this kid will have a big game on richmond this weekend

 

[morebeer]

Re: 3. Scott Gumbleton

He is still very much in the development stage of his career so I wouldn't expect too much in the way of big games for a while.

He just needs games and continuity. I would prefer he got that playing in the twos until he shows he can contribute. Lets hope he is a quick learner and he can play a role by the end of the year, which would be a great result for him I rekon.

 

[Giggidy Giggidy]

Can't find any training reports anywhere.... have we trained this week?

The most crucial part of Gumby's game on Saturday night is how he pulls up this week at training IMO. If he is fine and can back up in Morwell this week then...... <insert excited gif here>
