Scott Gumbleton takes a great mark

[Peeto87]

Shows how much better he is than Neagle. Who timed their jump and who didn't?

[Peeto87]

Despite being appaulingly unfit and a bit lazy, and generally average so far, I want Neagle to play some more so that these two can play together.

[Peeto87]

I can't wait till we see Neagle and Gumby up front for us soon er or later.

[EssendonFooty]

@Peeto87

They're both working well already, 2 goals a piece and helped us get across the line against North.

Hardingham could change things though. Gumbleton's been surprising so far. Only missed one game!!

[Jim5H]

@EssendonFooty is it just me or does it seem like hardingham could jump over gumbleton from a stand still start?

[TheMissHannahjade]

does anyone know where he is origanally from? cus im a Gumbleton and was just wondering cus i have alot of family spred out over Australia..an im in QLD...

[Myers2Gumbleton]

Western Australia.

[TheMissHannahjade]

ohh ok thanx...cus i asked a family member and found out that he is my cousin...

[Myers2Gumbleton]

That's pretty cool!

[Peeto87]

@TheMissHannahjade How could you not know that.......

[TheMissHannahjade]

@Peeto87

how could i now know what ?

[Peeto87]

@TheMissHannahjade That he is your cousin. Strange thing to not be aware of for a while!

[AlienBusDriver]

god he even looks injury prone taking a mark, out of the dream team

[snowcat3]

looks like another prem for ess. within 5 years if u can get the midfield right.

[Jasexxxxx]

God, I cannot recall the amount of times I've watched this video over and over again, squirming in anguish over the pre-season.

I hate the pre-season.

[s9104253]

2010 - i'll be wrapped if he plays 22 rounds+. He needs to prove nothing to me as an essendon supporter. He is a super talent.

[TheMissHannahjade]

lol i just typed up my last name and this came up

[Mozsa]

LOL

"well it's fair to say that he's prematurely departed more games than a Bulgarian weight lifter..."

Another sterling piece of commentary by Dennis Cometti.

Can't wait to see Gumbleton show us Essendon supporters what he's made of in 2010 and beyond.

[Peeto87]

Can you explain that to me?

I dont get the commentary.

[Mozsa]

The commentary at the end of the vid was acknowledging that Gumbleton has had plenty of injuries, missed a lot of games.

Cometti was making light of that fact, comparing him to Bulgarian weightlifters whom are renowned for being kicked out of Olympic Games or World Championships before the tournament is over, due to their abuse of steroids and other drugs.

Not that Gumby has taken drugs of course...

It was a stretch of a comparison, but that's what made it so funny, typical of Dennis.

[Peeto87]

Oh, thanks. I got the whole bit about Gumby.

But I didn't know about the bulgarian weightlifters.

Thanks :)

[jaradevans]

Hope he has had his hamstrings replaced with nylon

[Jasexxxxx]

Is it just me or does he seem very Buddy like?

When I watched this video, it reminded me of Buddy circa 2008 a lot.

Anywya, he's a bit more buff now, and rumor is he's grown past the 2m mark in height. Can't wair for him to come back in Round 1 next year!

2010 - THE YEAR OF GUMBY.

[theAJcompany]

Hes like neagle takes a good mark U BEAUTY!

[blaizethefootylegend]

Is he that good?

I didnt even know him and i watch every single essendon game.

[pearsoac]

please stay fit man! we need u big time

[indahouse22]

Please lift us out of mediocrity Gumbleton.

[grenbj]

Gumby is going to be a GUN!!!

[killercrossover01]

[miffman18]

[bombers05]
