Possible ruptured achilles tendon. If so, season ending. Very sad day today.

Yes its touch and go with that type of injury.

our forward line is farrrkkkeedd.

Miller presents well at CHF and Wonaeamirri and Davey are good small forwards...

However we have noone to kick the goals...

PJ is probably our best option...Ben Holland is 31 and on his last legs, Yze the same.

We don't have anyone even at sandy who can fill the void???

Newton? Maybe try to develop Dunn into a full forward?

Career over. He wont recover from this, its a very serious injury.

Didnt we sign him for 3 years?

2 year deal. I think.

2 year deal, I wont say career over but I have seen someone lose the ability to jump or talke off hard from that foot after the same injury, alas he would not have the same surgeon nor help in recovery Robbo will.

Season over. On MFC website.

I doubt he will play again. Its a 12 month injury, and he will lose a lot of his spring. Plus, he is 30 years old.

Looks like he will just fall short of 400 career goals.

Newton to come in, or could possibly mean another rookie elevation: zomer?

Saden to see robbo's departure, I don't think he'll be making a return

He was one of my fav's

Would love to see Trent Zomer elevated.

I liked what I saw from him in the pre-season. Looks to have a nice set of hands.

I suppose the only positive is that it frees up Valenti to play out the rest of the season...

surely Zomer needs to earn promotion from the Sandy 2's before he gets a run for Melbourne..?

i guess this means Valenti will be able to keep his spot on the list...

I really hope this isn't the end for Robbo, we've already had our greatest servent of the MFC retire because of injury, and whatever people think of Robbo is irrelivant because he loves the club and has given us plenty of excitement over the years.

Good luck with your recovery Russell.

Nobody speak about this like it is career ending, please.

It's bad enough we had to farewell Neita in a car, this better not happen with Robbo too!

This season is just a massive pile of crap

Yep, the old Achilles tear is up there with your ACL's, the players are never the same afterwards

I'm in much agony in this season as everyone else is.. Injuries just rubs it in more. I really do hope robbo comes back!

Season/career over. What a terrible way to lose neitz and robbo. With no such replacements to come in.

Horrible hospital pass by Green. Will have to live with the fact he might have ended his mate's career.

Valenti will keep his spot and Grimes can come up onto the main list.

I cant see Zomer being elevated until he earns it. If he is finding his feet in Sandy 2nd he aint ready for AFL and he is unlikely to unseat Saunter at Sandy.

It's the right leg that he's injured so the take-off leg is intact. For some reason right-handed individuals jump off their left.

Edit: It is now reported that it IS the left achilles which is injured. Game. set and match you'd have to think with Robbo's unique physiology.

Career over. He wont recover from this, its a very serious injury.

Yes, I agree 'Yze_Magic'. If it is ruptured it will be very difficult for robbo, (who relies on his 'spring & sprint off the mark to win the footy) to recover & it may well be allover..

I hope not as this would be a sad day for his exit from the game.

Not good, all the best Robbo. Time to play Dunn as a key forward, he is not a midfielder and was drafted as a forward. It is time to see if this first round pick can play.

Last game for the MFC I rekon. It's not as out-there as you think it is.

PJ is probably our best option

That is very sad.

Robbo will be back. Yes, it's serious but the man bleeds for this football club and I believe he still has plenty to offer. Best of luck in your recovery Robbo!!
