Fractured skull; bruising to the brain. Ouch. That's not good. Hope he recovers well.

    Damn.

    Well that rules him out as a first round pick.

    Seems to have a knack of getting himself in trouble.

    Considering the report states "unprovoked" wondering how he got himself into trouble?

    I dont know either way but as fans we are too flippant about these boys and the careers ahead of them.

    Maybe a dose of compassion at the fact he has bruising on the brain would not go astray?

    He might walk tall amongst 18 year olds, but coming to the "Big Smoke" of Melbourne with our seniors guys could straighten him out. I sure as hell would not be pulling any BS will Brent Moloney watching over me.

    Kid could still be a star. He should remain in our sights.

    Other than this incident.

    I do not want this bloke being a nuisance and ruining our good culture here, from what I have heard about him. If he recovers from this incident successfully and wont let his attitude take over, he is definately someone to look out for at the draft.

    The footage I've seen of Darling from the U18 Champs both years does seem promising.

    What I liked about his footy was;

    Goal Kicking Accuracy and kicking distance

    Aggressive approach, intimidating like Jono Brown.

    Body Composition, quite strong.

    Applies Defensive Pressure

    His height wouldnt be a major concern at 190cm, with others Key Forwards like Fev at 191cm he could easily play at KPF with Jack Watts, with the two swapping from the goalsquare to further up the field.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
