I'd say his physical condition has been found wanting by the new regime, he is getting some tough love and is going to have to earn a spot. If you can't earn a spot in our team at the moment you are struggling.
That's a concern with Jaksch going into his fourth season :

It was wishful thinking when Malthouse suggested that Jaksch could build up to address the fact that he is “10 kilograms lighter than what he needs to be for the position he plays”. Jaksch could be a useful marking option forward or back but I suspect that he won't be the KPP we were after. However, he needs to show that he can perform at AFL level and that seems to be a challenge. I thought he showed a bit in patches last season ???

Gibbs has no left foot or hand whatsoever. Just realised after all these years. Cant remember him ever using his left side.
