A new age Gumbyers
16 weeks from an innocuous incident - Damn unlucky.
Lots of back work from what Iβve seenβ¦ lying on his back on a beach. sitting on his date on a couch while McKenna moves what looks to be their entire house.
Absolutely spewin Lav will basically miss another year of footy. Could already be one of our most valuable players IMO if he had a good injury run. I thought his preseason form and goal kicking ability was fantastic but again we can only hope. We need him fit so he can form our next generation with Merrett, McGrath, JD, Fanta.
Would like to see him off half back when he comes back. Has speed can take a grab, deliver the ball well and break the lines. We are slow out of defence.
Seems to have good goal sense anf some creative flair, I wouldnβt be sending him into defence.
I dare say lavβs exposed form gets better and better with each injury. Heβs probably one serious injury away from being a brownlow medalist at this point.
Donβt get me wrong he showed something in his first year but he still has a long long way to go with his game. Itβs lucky he hasnβt suffered the same fate as Langford and, you know, been fit enough to play.
Sing it, sister,
I like the way you think. Playing from behind the play will keep him involved in the action, a part of the game he struggles in.
Will never make it

Back before the bye.
YOU MONSTER
Tippy, Green and Raz doing well up forward, so there may not be a spot as a small forward. If Franga becomes the third tall we all think he will, Laverdes opportunities in the forward line will be limited. That leaves midfield or defence.
I actually thought he was showing great signs last year up forward in a shocking team, more so than Langford.
Still another 6-7 weeks out. FFS!
Whoβs Jason Laverde?
will play the myers roleβ¦
I highly doubt heβll ever get over these injuries, itβs pretty rare for someone to be this injured early on and carve a successful career
Like Robert Harvey?
Lav or Gumb?
Thereβs a few rules to the exception. I hope heβs one of them
But look at gumb, winderlich, Myers ect. History says heβs more than likely to have a pretty interrupted career
