Bombers axe Laycock

I feel with the current changes to the interchange etc that many of these types will not be preserved with as long as they might have been previously.

They will be out there and may be ready at an older age, similar to Jamar, but rather than be on a current list more likely that they will have to plucked from a lower league.

BTW - no to Laycock.

I just want to claim that trade back from the bombers now.

We whinged about it for so long...

Nick Smith and Chris Heffernan for Jason Laycock.

We won that deal.

What a nothing trade that was...

Good pick up rpfc. Really ordinary.

I'm still suffering from having to watch Heffernan supposedly play football. Over time I will heal, I guess.

I bet Bomber fans are jumping for joy to see this list clogger finally get the chop. "Potential" is never a good enough reason to keep an injury prone player around the traps for year after year.

Except there might just "still" be one diamond in the rough there. And I'm not talking about Laycock.

This is the worst thread I've seen here. Ever.

Can only be beaten by someone asking if we should pick Jordan McMahon up.

What!! You mean we are not picking up Jordan???? Damn, the guys a legend!!! :wacko::wacko:

That line gets trotted out far too often around here - why respond if no interest?

rpfc's addition to this actually rounded it out well I thought.

I see your Jordan McMahon and raise you Jarad Oakley-Nicholls.

Posted

He just can't get fit.

He does have ability, bit no work ethic.

I wouldn't bother.

Agree. I see ability in him and seen great games from him but his body is useless . Heard it all from bombres complaining about laycock being lazy too so i wouldn't bother. Shame really.

Better then PJ but that doesn't mean squat.

Oh I'm interested. Interested in if anyone actually thinks we should go after an unfortunately, but nonetheless definitely, crippled hack.

Ah true.

Did he keep his rookie spot at WCE?

I don't recall any "great games" from Jason Laycock. Ash might be able to fill us in otherwise. But i wouldn't hold your breath.

Took particular notice of him one game (I think it was vs Carlrape last year) and his efforts were quite comical. It was like he was trying to play football but just wasn't. Couldn't win his own ball, could not hit one target to save himself. Only effective disposal was a two metre handpass. He was playing loose down back if I remember also.

If he had improved the bumbers would have kept him down at shitty hill no doubt.

Posted

I have been sprooking him on other threads as a possible rookie- if he is deemed fit to play- could be a good backstop- he never shined at Essendon but but in glimpses to show he would be ok if he remained sound.

If, but, maybe... could'a, should'a didn't and probably wont... All speculation on your part. I rarely call players spuds, so i'll just say he's not so very good.

Anzac Day, in either 04 or 05. Should have won the Anzac medal but they gave it to Lovett.

Probably the only one though.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
