The Demons will finally bring back a recognised ruckman for next Sunday's game against the Western Bulldogs, but will decide whether that's Max Gawn or back-up Jake Spencer later in the week. Gawn will need to pass a fitness test this week to be cleared to play for the first time since round three due to a serious hamstring injury. The Demons have three six-day breaks coming up and that could possibly factor into the club's thinking when it comes to Gawn's availability for this weekend. Spencer is ready to play after a solid performance in the VFL following seven weeks on the sidelines with a shoulder injury. Ben Kennedy (30 disposals), Josh Wagner (26) and Dean Kent (26) will also be considered. – Ben Guthrie
