Matthew JAENSCH

2016 Digest:   Exciting to see Jaensch training again with the team coming off a knee reconstruction suffered in Round 7. When up and firing he’s a beautiful exponent of the drop punt and runs through the lines well. Hoping to be available for selection once he proves his body is right in the SANFL.

2016 NAB Cup:   Retired from AFL football during the NAB Challenge.
