6/9/24.
Lauren Pearce has been forced to the sidelines with a scaphoid fracture. 

Ruck Pearce sustained the injury during the Demons’ final training session of the week, with scans later confirming the extent of the damage.

“Unfortunately, we will be without Lauren for an extended period, due to an injury she sustained in a spoiling incident on Thursday,” Mulholland said.

“Lauren will require surgery and at this stage, we expect her to be available to play again in six weeks.

“It’s really unfortunate news for Lauren, but we know she will attack her rehab with the utmost professionalism, and do whatever she can to help and support her teammates from the sidelines over the coming weeks.”

    Huge loss, especially with Tayla out. Good opportunity for the younger talls to stand up

    Yes. Its GEORGIA CAMPBELL’s time. 
    I’m unclear if the Dees can sign an injury replacement for the ruck !!!
