Lets hope he'll be right for Sunday.  I'd like to have him in as backup for the backline.

I see him as a future Qtr-back type. vision to spot targets. I don't have faith in him in-under anymore. 

But I'd like to utilise his vision and ability to deliver.

Will be fine. That he had them out in the chair suggests it wasn't a big op and maybe only had 1 or 2 out. 3-4 day recovery. Maximum.

Thought this might have been an auction thread.

Or is that too close to the bone?

When do we play Freo? I hope Gus schools his brother, WA media hyping up his brother and the dockers too much.

Back in my day I had my wisdom teeth removed in the morning and was back at work by lunch time. And I ate well-done steak for lunch.

Back in my day, my old man was to tight to pay decent health insurance and kicked mine out. The fecker gave me ribs and corn on the cob for tea that night

Never much fun having them out.

In my case, the anesthetic didn't work the first time and I woke up. Thankfully, the cutting hadn't started. Ironically my surgeon also had qualified as a lawyer too. 

Judging by that, maybe he needed a thorough knowledge of the law.

I bet he tried to sue the dentist.

If theyd already grown through and it was done in the chair, he got of lightly.  It’s when they have to dig them out then yank them, with their boot on your throat for leverage, that you’re in for a tough recovery.

Ohh boy I can relate to that. I was sore and numb for months No anesthetic for me Still give me nightmares remembering the surgeon using his whole body and the chair for leverage and the noise of the bone saw like a Stihl on steroids

OMG, is that true? He took out your wisdom teeth without anaesthetic? Where was this? Kokoda in 1942?

Kudos

Mate of mine had the snip and was told to stay off the job for a week.

Felt alright the next day so gave it a run.

Didn't end well.

Hearing this I'm glad I was out cold for my removal. I'm not convinced Brayshaw will play this week as a result of this. I'm certainly not as manly or as tough as Brayshaw but I wouldn't have been fit to play a few days out from having my wisdoms out. Nor would you have wanted me to play even if not eating through a straw.

I'v had 4 root canals without anaesthetic. dentist claimed he needed to make sure nerve was completely removed, haha. since then i have become a firm believer in levitation.

I don't quite get his thinking, putting it off to attend training. Why not get it done and dusted ASAP to recover better for round 1?

Hope his recovery is as speedy as he thought it would be!

I’m lucky I have a big enough set of chops to accommodate all 4 wisdom teeth so no need to take them out thank god. 

Good luck Gus in ur recovery.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
