According to this article women are 5 times more likely to tear their ACL than men.

That's a crazy stat.

The number 1 draft pick and BOG from the Cats first game has gone down with an ACL at training.

The higher rate comes from less muscle development during their junior days. I.e. less physically active and therefore not developing strong muscles prior to adulthood.  This has also been linked to higher injuries in newer generations due to different and less physical upbringings.  This the increase in junior girls footy this should reduce over time.
