Not sure Owies or Motlop offered much better on that front in 2024

If we were to recruit Cumberland we could have a ceremonial passing of the whip from Orazio to Noah .
They were criticised for it too. Why target another cut from the same cloth?
We get rid of Carroll and are looking at someone that got chopped by the bottom team that won 2 games.
Indeed. Fantasia is not great, but he puts in. Cumberland ... I don't want to go there. Not enough possessions, no negative side and .... No!!!!!
Menzel’s issues were not footy related … too cool for school
Cumberland is exactly the type of high risk, low cost player we should be chasing.
Utter ****wit but has immense talent.
Get him right like the good clubs do.

How is he an utter ****wit?
Some love his offensive game but other raise concerns about his defensive side? I didn’t think Voss would want players without defence and pressure

Noah Cumberland is interesting. His best performances came in his first season, when Richmond had pretensions of not falling off; season after a flag, when they'd just up and abandoned the method that saw them get three flags in four seasons which suited his kind of player in favour for a more conventional structure and method. The problem then is halfway through 2023 you have Hardwick retiring, then you have Yze stepping in.
It isn't just a long time at the bottom causing a whole heap of players to want to get off at Richmond. This has all the signs - and I really need to state here that I've got no evidence for this, this is just based on the impression received in the wake of last season - of Yze cleaning house, cutting the players who he cannot work with and/or who he's lost. Administration mightn't have wanted Rioli/Bolton to leave, but you don't lose those players if there's a good connection between coach and player.
So while it's a risk, there's a chance that he'd want to shove it up Yze for misusing him, thinking he can't do it. He has the athletic traits, and if he buys into Voss's pressure mindset from his smalls - provided, you know, that shows up again - he could be an excellent pickup.
He also would cost only the list spot and pennies on the dollar. It's an interesting thought.

Off field??
Just because he doesn’t fit the Voss ideal doesn’t mean he isn’t the right guy to chase … in fact I’d say the opposite is true.

He does not have immense talent. He is a joe the goose specialist. Once again he has had 4 hard ball gets in his last 16 games.
He has just been cut by a team that won 2 games this year and has lost pretty much all of its older talent. Surely that tells you the story.

Can Joe the goose as many goals as he wants if he can get back to this form. Plus, as we saw with Owies stubbed toe, Joe the goosing is an art form!
he just got delisted from a team that won 3 flags in 4 years.
He was at a good club. He’s just shit

My kids and I have actually met him a few times and he is far from an utter ****wit.

Yeah I know. Carroll and Cumberland are pretty different types though.
Not many wanted Acres.
No one wanted Lord.
It’s worth trusting the club and seeing what the results are imo

As a third tall maybe. His lack of defensive efforts might be made up by smalls pressure like fogarty and durdin. he could play as a decoy for H and C.

And yet was dropped 2 games later. He did kick 3 goals in that crows game but only had 5 touches.
All but cost the Tigers a game this year when he stupidly got an easy shot on goal for his team reversed by dumping a player that was just plain dumb.
His brain doesn't work as quickly as his body.

Wouldn't it make sense to show all his stats? Am I right in assuming that you have just cherry picked 2022?

Mitch Cleary is reporting that he is heading to West Coast.
He isn't a small forward. He's about 6 feet in the old. He'd be fighting for games against Moir and Kemp and Silvagni (if he stayed up forward) .
I'd rather Mcmahon
LanceRomance
Brownlow Medallist
I'd rather Chris Judd
so would I
