The Captain Pearce secret didn’t really fly under the Radar. But as captain, do we need to worry about his Klingers… I mean… clangers… by foot? Time to Restump Podcast all the purple happenings.

It is pretty much old news now but the captaincy just fits perfectly on Alex Pearce. He’ll lead admirably like he has done his entire career and we’re looking forward to the documentary A Day In the Fyfe Of Alex Pearce in the future!

Co-vice captains? It was a bit of a soft and hard taco shell decision in regards to Brayshaw and Serong so they said “why not have both?”

What did we learn from the 18 quarters of mix and match scratch match? Something, nothing, anything?

Nat Fyfe looks like he’s going to be a handful for defenders, Sammy Sturt showed encouraging signs and Josh Treacy put forward his claims for round one.

Our new ruck combo… how did Jackarce fare? Hard not to like Jackson’s ground work nearly as much as his aerial attributes. 

Did we get a good enough look at Jaegar O’Meara? Probably not, but then again enough to not dampen any previous thoughts about him.  

We had a bit of a bopeep at the documentary, Show Me The Money II. Rory Lobb, as, we all knew, didn’t come off well and Griff may not have been that far behind him. However, the take out from the doco was similar to the take out from last year, and that was…. why?

The ever-diplomatic Justin Longmuir got a right of reply recently to Lobb’s and Griff’s comments and disappointingly he didn’t take the duo to task. He opted to professionally put the fire out when the Chief was hoping he’d tip a jerry can on it. 

The Chief continues his overdone and nonsensical almost intrusive Bob campaign while Jojo is leading the charge to have all the basketball courts in his suburb shut down, citing noise pollution.

Round one is on our doorstep. So if you’re someone who doesn’t have enough purple nonsense in your life, by all means feel free to top up on ours.
