It’s about six weeks until the AFL season begins and the question on everyone’s minds is who are the premiership favourites that’ll take home the 2022 Covid Complication Cup? Was a big day with the Docker Dudettes taming the bulldogs and now it’s time to Restump Podcast the latest news in purple shoes. 

We look at the Luke Valente departure. What do we do with the coveted No.29 jumper and the now vacant list spot? 

With several injured players on the mend, Matty Johnson’s ankle issue isn’t what anyone needed. The question must be asked, has Limestone Park claimed another victim? And while on MJ, could we contemplate asking Liam Henry to give up the famous No.23?

Was it simply player unavailability or is there forward movement at the station chatter about Brennan Cox? After putting away four sausage rolls in the recent scratchy, questions will be asked.

And speaking of eating, is 2022 the break out year for The Tucker Truck? Darcy looked out of sorts out of position last year so a midfield role feeding the forwards may be the catalyst for improvement. Its food for thought!

We dissect the likelihood of another season under draconian West Australian covid restrictions. What are the immediate impacts and the potential near and distant ramifications for not only the clubs in the West and their financial wellbeing, but also the fans. 

All that, plenty more and then we bring it home with another episode of everyone’s favourite segment, Ask Jojo. So, if you’re over the cricket and the tennis and you’ve cheered home the Docker girls, bung this purple nonsense in your ears.

However, as always take precautions and safety first. If you’re listening in public remember to mask up. Not for covid reasons but you don’t want to be identified as a Restump Podcast listener!
