    Bloody hell, that terrible.  Is it simple genetics or bad surgeon, if its the same knee ?  

    Different knee, apparently.

    I have read that women on their period have a higher percentage chance of doing their ACL.. I thought it was witchdoctor science, but apparently its being backed up by evidence on the injuries.  Do we need to change some practices, esp for someone like Sloane in their preparation and conditioning?

    I'm going to gut a chicken and get back to you with the correct answer.

    When you say "apparently its being backed up by evidence on the injuries" can you give specific details about this ?

    Oh my god that is devastating for an athlete to have to go through once let alone 3 times. All the best for you future endeavours Shae!

    Thanks, as I said it was surprising as how that would make the ligaments more susceptible to injury, but it does somehow!

    It may be connected to relaxin, a hormone that amongst other things relaxes ligaments in preparation for childbirth - its concentration rises and falls with the menstrual cycle.

    Very sad/tough news.

    What mental strength she must have through all this.

    David Schwarz must have also been on his period.

    This is just awful news for Shae, fingers crossed she gets a final crack at it.

    not sure what to say about that post

    Because people are focusing on the fact that she is a woman more than she is a footballer.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
