We wont risk him, Bellchambers is more than capable but id love to see Gumbleton get a crack, his form in the VFL has been excellant
Jimbo you think Gumby is 1 injury away from being dropped off the list? Massive talent but how long can you carry him?
I think they will persist with him for a year or 2 more at least, Hirdy cant say enough of how good he thinks he will be. He had a lot of back related issues which were misdiagnosed for years and caused him to miss a fair bit of footy. Finally he was diagnosed correctly and had back surgery which forced him to spend over a year out of footy. Since resuming in the VFL he has played 8 or 9 straight and by all reports fitter than ever. Hirdy still thinks we can get another 10 years out of him, lets hope so and we will have to wait and see
yep fair enough, didnt know he had been back for that long. DEfinately a good talent and we saw glimpses of what he could do when he strung a few AFL games together a while back. Hopefully he can stay right
