ChaserJ 5,192 Posted February 23 Posted February 23 (edited) Terrible news for Jagga. One of my kids favourites from the u/18 crop and a very well spoken young man. Pretty sure the first social media post the Blues put up after drafting Jagga included my son with his Dees jumper on! Get the feeling Carlton rolled some dice to get a midfield gun into the team to support Walsh & Cripps whilst in their peak, so this will be especially flattening for them. Long term am certain Jagga will come back strong. Will be a star. Edited February 23 by ChaserJ 10 1 Quote
Roost it far 10,136 Posted February 23 Posted February 23 7 hours ago, Whispering_Jack said: Shocking news for the kid. He can take example from our own Christian Petracca who also suffered a torn ACL in his first year at the club, worked hard to come back (and from the experience of some of my own family members who have undergone that surgery, it’s hard work) and win a Norm Smith, a premiership medallion and acclaim as one of the great players of our game. Good luck Jagga! Not that much luck! cruel news for the kid. This year will feel like an eternity. 1 Quote

ManDee 7,395 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 23 hours ago, whatwhat say what said: the ssp won't be extended it's now a case of waiting til the mid season draft to be able to bring a player on to the list, if determined that it's worthwhile doing so How things change 🙂 2 Quote

DistrACTION Jackson 10,728 Posted March 1 Posted March 1 Fractured ankle is probably 12 weeks minimum. Depends on how bad the fracture is, can be season ending if it’s bad enough. 2 Quote

DubDee 26,674 Posted March 1 Posted March 1 AFL to intervene how? make the games non contact? More injuries happen in training and intraclub games 1 Quote
monoccular 17,760 Posted March 1 Posted March 1 (edited) What is Hardwick going on about - better scheduling > fewer injuries??? But is pushing into packs in causing injuries then that is something the AFL could potentially do something about. (Couldn’t read the story due to HS paywall) Edited March 1 by monoccular 1 1 Quote

Not necessarily. We gave Adelaide Darren Burgess and they still haven't made finals in the 3 years that he has been there. Horse to water? 1 Quote
