Brisbane Lions coach Chris Fagan has shut down suggestions Will Ashcroft will ease back into the AFL, declaring “if we thought he had to be managed, we would’ve brought him back in the reserves”.
But 11 months on from that night at the Gabba, the son of three-time premiership-winner Marcus Ashcroft will seek to remind pundits of his class when he lines up against the Melbourne Demons on Friday night.“We’ve got a history of playing blokes straight off the back of their surgeries, like Cam Rayner and Eric Hipwood, and we can’t see any reason why we wouldn’t do the same with Will,” Fagan said.
“ no management – if you’re playing AFL you’re in and have to do whatever you have to do.”Advertisement “It just happened in a split second and there was so much unknown about what it could be, then when you actually find out what it is, it’s hard to wrap your head around.
