The Restump Podcast

What’s going on at that Mineral Resources Park? It’s a mine site of a ground and now we’ve got Sean Darcy on his 4-week Fifo spell! Time to Restump Podcast everything that’s as purple as Darce’s knee!
You don’t want any player getting injured at all, but especially on the eve of a season. And given how vital it is we get off to a positive start this year, we couldn’t afford to lose part of the Jackarce combo. Luke Jackson will cover Darcy but it robs us of Luke Jackson magic up forward.
Speaking of injuries, sadly Corey Wagner is done for possibly a third of the season and how long Disco Nathan is out is anyone’s guess! But on the more positive side, Brennan Cox and Freddy are pushing for round one and the Qatar sorcery has seemingly done Heath Chapman no end of good.
The pressure is already on Justin Longmuir and the season hasn’t even begun. Such is the irrational world of fanatical sport. What constitutes an acceptable season performance? Is it finals? If so, can he survive should we miss the top eight? Can the club stand up to the external pressure and noise if they then still think he's the man for the job?
The Chief is back on Sammy Switkowski’s case and is asking the question, could Switta be more productive in a semi-foreign role?
We all know ‘league equalization’ is an AFL buzz term with no meaningful substance but after finishing 14th in 2023, did we get a little torched with our draw this year? Or maybe the nerves creeping in for us fans is causing us to subconsciously grasp at pre-determined reason for failure straws!
Wait a minute… that’s loser talk! Let’s nip that defeatist attitude talk in the bud right now and amp up the positive affirmations!
All that and no doubt plenty more to get through. So, as Jojo has finally decided to turn up… let’s strike while the iron is hot before his less than disciplined pre-season interruptions continue.
So, in the highly unlikely event you’ve got nothing better to do and you can’t suddenly make other arrangements, by all means pull up a pew, plug in and partake in the perpetuation of our purple prattle.
