Disappointed that Jackson is out but liked this bit in the article “In a huge boost, Gawn is expected back for the Demons in round 17”. 
 

Thank god Max will be back. 
 

Can’t understand MBrown coming in would rather Thomo.

I really don't see the benefit of Mitch Brown playing at all.

Given a shot in 2 games this year and did sweet FA in both.

Poor JVR has to miss a VFL game tomorrow because he is a travelling emergency. Wouldnt you just play the kid ahead of someone that's 32 and way past it and then certainty to be delisted at years end..

Well they said Mitch.Brown is on stand by. He'd be on stand by anyway that's how it works.

Surely Tomlinson would be well ahead of Mitch either in the team or as medical sub.

Ruck Weed and promote JVR, Mitch goes missing in the forward line at AFL level. All well and good to reward effort but pointless in Mitch's case as he will let you down at AFL level.

As above.

Ah the dreaded Norm Smith Jake Spencer curse resurfaces

I was thinking this as well. What is it about backup ruckman, they always seem to get injured just when they get their big chance? I am sure I remember if Jamar got injured so would Spencer and Stef Martin. When Gawn missed a some games a few seasons ago so did Braydon Pruess. Now Gawn goes down, Jackson lasts one game and Majak retires!

Everyone relax will ya. We don’t have a ruckman for one game against a bottom 4 team. Half the comp plays without one every week.

Actually we don’t really know who’ll be available next week, do we.

Are you sure he's the travelling emergency or just one of the four named emergencies?

I'd expect him to line up for Casey.

Pretty sure there was footage of him training with the lads in Adelaide.

Have they yet named his replacement?

Surely Tomlinson must get a look in unless they want to debut JVR thrown right in the deep end.

Club said Gawn will be back. I’ll take the All Australian ruckman back. We can fit him in.

Makes my suggestion last year, to keep Austin Bradtke for another year as Insurance, sound quite good now.

It was foresight and not hindsight.

I actually thought he was doing ok at CHB and in the ruck. Certainly no star, but good Insurance until we could bolster ruck depth.

    

No foresight there. Sadly Austin wasn't close to VFL standard. Couldn’t ruck, mark, kick or handball.

I just want to know how bad the injury is and for how long he will be out?! Someone? anyone?

Sounds like a one weeker

Yes, Mitch Brown in to the starting 22.

Where did you read this? The Club haven’t said anything.

Mitch Brown has been selected as Jackson's replacement. That's who should have been playing 2nd ruck at Casey last week.

Yet to be seen if he plays ruck...

My guess is Ben Brown. Heaven help us if he gets injured.

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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)
