GWS VETERAN will continue in 2021
Shane Mumford will continue his AFL career in a role that the senior says will become increasingly popular with veterans in the latter stages of their season foxfooty.com.au Reporter Tom Morris.
After Sam Jacobs announced his resignation, the Giants want to make sure they have enough jerk shares to get back into the finals in 2021.
Morris said Mumford, who turns 35 mid-way through next season, is likely to play next year with the Giants in a role not dissimilar to Sam Mitchell’s with the West Coast Eagles.

“This is a sensitive one,” continued Sam Edmund SEN breakfast.
“He’s got a contract for the next year and I’ve been told by Carlton people that this could go either way. Just wonder if blues fans are going to be upset by this.
“He’s putting a lot of pressure on and is maybe the best pressure Carlton has. He can go in the middle sometimes and just needs a little continuity.”
