Would we count Mumford , apparently going around again.
His job is just to run at the other ruckman or anyone that gets in the way.
Some are destined to rise and peak
Others are earmarked to flat line and eke
They're journeymen workhorses, they play without flair
They're solid, they're stolid, they don't go the lair
The eker is called on to plug up a hole
He's a fill in, a back up, a roll of the dice
But when called on to front up
He's there in a trice.
He's ready to go and give it his all
He'll run through a brick wall to get his hands on the ball
Not blessed with talent or blistering pace
Life played in the shadows is his unhappy fate
But where would we be if there were no ekers?
Life would be poorer, life would be bleaker
And we'd forego the pleasure of this thread we call Ekers.
A sad day with elite eker Jacob Townsend delisted by the bombers.
60 games across 9 seasons with 3 clubs is some elite ekeing. To also eke out a flag in that time is something to behold.
If he can manage a 4th club he would have to be in hall of fame territory.
