The Sudanese born big man battled injury concerns in the first half of the season and was always going to struggle for an AFL game in the ruck behind Max Gawn and Luke Jackson. Made the decision in mid year to retire without playing a game for Melbourne in his two seasons at the club. 

Date of Birth: 3 November 1991
Height: 195cm
Weight: 101kg

    Surely must have been told he wasn't going to get a game even if he got fit and the big 2 rucks got injured (which they did eventually) and bowed out gracefully.

    Disappointed he left when we were critically short of talls. Could have battled through and played in a premiership at Casey, or pulled the pin earlier and allowed us to find a replacement.

    Having recently read his book, I hope he is in a good head space and getting the support he needs.

    Yeah it was bad timingbut I guess there was no point battling on if his heart wasn't in it. Hope there's some great things in store for him!

    Poor fella literally missed out on his AFL comeback by a couple of days. In the week Max and Jackson were both down he blew out his pec at training. If that hadn't have happened he would have been back in the ones for a week or two

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
