If there was ever a good game to bring X back into AFL level, against the Suns this upcoming Saturday night is it.

Wouldn't want him coming back first up against Carlton at Marvel, and I would hope that the side is settled personnel wise going into the 3 tough games against Collingwood, the away Showdown and Geelong.

Clearly a class above at SANFL level, so assuming he pulls up ok, should be back in the seniors this upcoming weekend.
 
You don't get AFL match fitness by playing SANFL games. Might as well be a completely different sport - ask Dylan Williams.

The question you need to ask is will Duursma offer more to the team than the likes of Bonner or Burgoyne. The answer is a resounding yes. So bring him in.

This post acts like getting fitness/touch back from injury and general fitness levels are the same thing 😂😂🙄

18 disposals, 2.1, 7 marks, 3 tackles and 4 inside 50s.

Jase Burgyone came in as the sub against Essendon off a game of 25 disposals, 1 goal, 4 marks, 6 tackles and 5 inside 50s.

You're acting like he's massively far off when he's not. If Burgoyne/Bonner had played some amazing sort of game then sure he should stay out of the side, but they didn't. And Xavier gives us that two way running power that makes us an even more dangerous proposition with our long kicking half-backs.

Ive called for him to come back in on the changes thread, so no i didnt/dont

But coming off a PCL you absolutely need a game in the 2s to get touch.
