This was always going to happen, waste of time. A sad indictment of how piss poor Freo have been in actually trying to get another forward: Jack Anthony, a guy who's played like 25 games, Matt Taberner...

You just have to feel for some players don't you. Poor bloke just never had a crack at it.
What's his contract length at Freo??

1 year.
Menzel Morabito and Williams in the same bracket as Gumby.Dan Menzel,Morabito,Tom Williams and Josh Cowan may disagree with you
I remember going to a Hawthorn Essendon game a few years ago where he kicked a few goals.
After he pulled up sore from a contest, an Essendon fan yelled out "The reason we call you Gumby is because you're built like the plastic toy". It was harsh and a few fans gave him a dirty look, you just had to feel for the guy. Certainly the unluckiest player over the past decade.

Injury prone player is injured, stop the presses everybody.
A bit morbid though how quickly Essendon fans rush to create these threads every time it happens now though.
Wasn't there a player in state footy that got paralysed or something not too long ago?Unluckiest player injury-wise ever in the AFL?

Or is just unlucky?Either was an absolute bastard in a previous life or has some serious good karma post footy life
He's 26, 27 next year. 2 years out and then back in the AFL would make him 29ish. Not a chanceFeel for the guy , super talented player.
It's almost at the point now where he should consider walking away from afl. Spend a year in the wafl, and without the pressure of afl, get his body right, enjoy footy and maybe try pick up his afl dream in a year or 2

Get stuffed. We had him at our club for years and wish him nothing but the best. Every Essendon fans head would drop when they hear news like this.Injury prone player is injured, stop the presses everybody.

He's the only ex-Essendon player who I would have clapped off the ground if he kicked a big bag against us. I remember him kicking 4 against the Saints a couple of years back and thinking that maybe the wheel was turning for him, but sadly, no cigar.
