Meanwhile all these images of the preseason buffed seems a nod and a pitch by marketing for the spend $$$ power of the crowd.

Financially noice. We have some work to do post the Dust Marketing Boom era.

Should be about 42 degrees in Perth in Feb.

Tipping Yze pulls a Dimma and wants the game called off at 3/4 time

Played it safe by doorknocking the inner east. Come out to the outer burbs and he would have got a stern talking to

If he walked into a lounge room in Dandenong there'd be like 6 campaigners pulling bongs.

love when campaigners use stats to try and justify their favourite spuds. oppos were doing it to compare to dusty

he is a vfl player get over it


mrj's ceiling is massive

Is MRJ’s massive potential due to his extreme talent (which he hasn’t used so far) or just due to the fact that he’s done nothing to far therefore doing anything would be a massive improvement. At what point do we stop talking about potential and start talking about underperforming. I see MRJ and Cumberland as very similar but the narrative on here is very different.

Boy's are looking good!!

Imagine if Cumbo was named Noah Rioli?

Disagree, particularly with the bolded part. I suppose you could say both haven't (Cumbo never did given he is no longer with the club) reached their potential. But I think the comparisons end there.

The biggest difference between the 2 is mental/keeping their head in the game. MRJ could be having a quiet one but he is always locked in, focused and continues to apply his pressure and cause turnovers throughout the game. If the ball didn't fall for Cumbo early OR he made an error, he would completely lose his head and overthink everything and essentially be rendered useless for the rest of the game.

Cumberland is a naturally talented footballer with great goal sense. But in his time with us apart from that little patch at the end of 2022, he could never play consistent footy. If Cumberland wasn't kicking goals he wasn't offering anything else. MRJ always brings pace, pressure and causes turnovers. If he can build on that and start kicking goals more consistently then we will have a A grade small forward. His floor is always that though, chase and tackle. Cumbo's floor could be pretty awful. IMO that is why the narrative was so different.

And for the record, I think MRJ really started to show great signs of maturing as a player this year pre his injury. Yze had allowed him to move up the ground and he was getting a lot more involved in general play. Hopefully he continues to build on that moving into 2025.
