Player Watch #38 Noah Cumberland

[Karp3_dm]

Cumbo is elite in so many areas it’s scary how high his potential is
Now
Thank you dima for now making him a angry Jet with an even bigger point to prove

 

[DustinsGuns]

Cumbo has confidence and it shows. He backs himself and goes for it. Young guys like HRS, Clarke, even Maurice ofter fan our to the easy handball option. Cumbo has "it." ****ing play him.

 

[Dragonss]

Cumbo keeps his spot regardless of if Dusty comes in. If not, all 3 of us stage a protest outside the club!

 

[Sir_Rancelot]

Dimma needs to stop with the bullshit and play Cumbo as a forward FFS we are crying for a mid sized forward and here he is.

 

[YeOldTiger]

Hardwick you ******* cheating prick ever since you cheated on your wife our list has gone to s**t.

Mods hello

 

[Tygrys]

But but but he isn't versatile enough!

He doesn't have enough strings to his bow!

He needs to do more pressure acts!

Back to the reserves for you!!!

 

[YeOldTiger]

Some of Cumbo's defensive efforts were very costly. Has the makings of a good player but jeez he lets his man run wild.

 

[Dragonss]

The man is a god damn prodigy. Hail the messiah, the god, the prince. Welcome through Noah Godland.

You see the way he crashes through tackles and actually pulls it off whereas MJ is the pretender who gets run down and called for holding the ball.

Haha here we go again. You focus on the only negatives and not what he can do.

Lets hold him differently accountable to everyelse. Get your head out of your arse mate.

 

[_RT_]

Played tonight like he has in the VFL, had an impact when opportunity presented, but then went quiet and wasn't involved as much once the Pies got the game back on their terms, then got back involved when we tried to mount a late charge. Should hold his spot next week when Martin Hopper and possibly Short return, but he needs that ability to be involved when things aren't on our terms otherwise we're carrying a passenger.

Now that I've calmed down. We'll played cumbo. I

He was lively but thats what you expect when he is the "Fresh Legs" that gets subbed in when the other players have already played a half
Nothing Special game

Seemed to be better structurally when the ball was up at the wings, which is seemingly what he’s gone back to the AFL to work on, and had that impact on the initial burst.

Seemed to get out of position on a few occasions as well however, and his man was able to start a few counter-attacks which led to scores.

It’s a work in progress no doubt. Whether he retains his spot when Hopper, Dusty and Short come back we shall see. There’s no doubt he’s best 22 on talent alone, but it’s all about how he fits into the overall team structure.

Are you kidding right? Maybe you should watch the game again.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Remind me again whats his role in the team ????

Kick goals you say ??
Foward pressure ??

I didnt see any of that

so tell me again what did he do ?
what about his opponent ?

That's it mate, he does as much wrong - seriously wrong - as he does beautifully.

Waiting for the footy to come over the back in marking contests where they easily escape out the front because he didn't contest, allowing whoever played on him to become a spare man at will, repeat failures to lock the ball in, complete stranger to defensive running - just as you say, costly basics (and he was hardly alone there of course).

He's got talent to burn and I love watching him play, he's a born gun, but we already leak all the defensive things he leaks with other forwards and in the end the question becomes: how many of these 'boom or easy rebound bust' types can you afford to play across half forward, especially when you're already getting beaten all over the ground?

Jack leaks around the same level, as does Dusty on his worse games and they're all a like for like swap, but you can't play all of them unless you've got a dominant midfield and win enough contested ball to make up for all the times they'll be easily rebounded against.

Cumberland literally turned the game for us (like he has in past last year) and you will still find a negative. Unbelievable. Makes me wonder you dont want to see richmond improve

LOL

Tell me what he did to turn the game ?
Did he lay a tackle ? or did he kick a goal ??

What did he exactly do ??

Last week Mansell came on the ground in the last quarter and immediately kicked a goal and laid a tackle
what did Cumberland do to change the game or have an impact

Some serious mental gymnastics here.

Our first two goals in the third quarter he was directly responsible for.

Not bother replying to that guy anymore - he talks so much nonsense its comical

 

[Sol23]

If that doesn’t prove he should be best 22 nothing will.

 

[living_in_syd]

Some people want to see 10 goals and 10 tackles (no one else needs to do it) and maybe he might be sub next week
