Hi guys, not sure if you’re interested or not but I recently interviewed former Bomber Damian Cupido about his time in the AFL, his regrets and his post-AFL career. Feel free to have a listen.
Was at the Elimination Final in 2003 v the Dockers at Subi when he helped turn the match just before half-time after a slow start and Hirdy firing him up.

Frustrating waste of talent he was.
Kicked 2 goals in the 3rd that near enough sealed the game, one on his left boot and one on his right. If I recall, freo were coming hard in the 3rd and that killed their momentum and we were home from there.

I was there and that is exactly how I remember it!

Yeah I remember that game - was about the last final we won (sad face emoji)
Didn’t Rioli kick a miracle goal from the boundary that night too trickled across the line like he had it on string
Although I never really understood that term cos if he had it on a string he’d pull the ball back towards him …?
Him and Rioli would have to be the most naturally talented guys we have had in the last 20 years. Such a shame that neither had the application to make it and have long AFL careers.
