[Demonland 71,639]

Tomlinson was having a very good season in the role of the team’s third defensive tall when disaster struck in the form of an ACL injury at Blundstone Arena in Round 7. He should be back early in 2022.

2022 is going to be very interesting for a number of players as we try to squeeze 30 top players into 23 spots. A great problem to have but I would hate to be on the selection committee. Good luck Adam it is great to have players of your quality in the group.💕❤️💙

Was playing his best footy ever before his injury. Deserved to play in a Gf. Hope hes on the mend and gets a grand final birth in 2022.

Will never forget the vision of Adam sitting on the bench, inconsolable. Crying the way a player cries when they know it’s a definite season-ending injury. It was truly heartbreaking. I look forward to seeing him pick up right where he left off, ie, in great form. 🤞🏼

I'd think he'd be competing for the half back role that Hibberd played in the GF, along with Hunt, Smith and Bowey.

Per ACL, Tommlinson's fitness was elite.  I remember that first practice match or two he played for us when he first joined and was on an opposite wing to Lingers and the amount of distance they covered over the game was around the same, which is saying something.  Got to find a way to utilize that run if it's still there.

People need to remember we had a charmed run with injuries this year.

It's great we have depth because  we can't expect the low injury numbers to go on ad infinitum.

Tommo is a flexible player and can play multiple positions. Looking forward to his return
