Isn't it obvious. Risk of being hit by a cricket ball in exactly the right place on his neck while playing football. Happens all the time. Where have you been. 

I had a red apple thrown at me while playing footy as a kid. Hit me in the chin, close enough to the neck.

Goodwin on RSN this morning stated Gus had scans on his neck and all is clear.  Good news. Also, interesting to hear Goodwin say Gus will end up as an inside mid for us when the question was

As dumb as your new post in the Lever thread. Stop attention seeking.

After all some people's chin is their neck. Not casting any aspersions. 

Hope it didn't end your career.

Righto, I have stated my opinion and that's what it is ...an opinion. Last time I checked Demonland is a forum to air an opinion. I have aired mine.There are a lot of Demonland posters who disagree with my opinions so be it. Each to his/Her own but no need for some on this site to get aggressive/ beligerent!  Over and out on the issue!

I think the answer is somewhere in between being hysterical about the issue - and being completely dismissive (like many are). Obviously the club has been trying to teach Gus to enter contests in a strategic fashion (in order to minimize the chances of concussion). The reason why I say the answer is probably somewhere in between is because he did enter a contest and didn't get concussed, but the outcome wasn't exactly ideal either. He still has some work to do, and I think he would be the first to admit that. Given that he hasn't just pulled stumps and gone home (which is something many players may have done), I suspect that he is working hard to get his game right. I don't like the fact that Brayshaw is playing VFL, but at this point in his recovery, it wouldn't have been smart for the club to hold him back, and say "you cannot play". Because that would have been an admission by the club that it didn't have full confidence in its methodology (how to enter contests, etc). All recent events have taught us is that there is work to do on both sides. I am glad the club pulled Brayshaw out and got him scanned. He is playing under a lot of uncertainty now, and is in new territory. But he knows that and still wants to play, so I think as supporters we should back him in.

Certainly not rubbishing your opinion PF. It is still wise to be concerned for his well being so you are right there.

What is the actual injury he sustained? Is it potentially related to previous concussion issues?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
