    So disappointing for him. Real chance to play Rd1. Now we go with Mihocek, JVR, and Heath surely?

    Not sure why he would be going to hospital tonight for scans? Ussually if it’s an ACL it’s done sometime over the weekend.

    Geez it looked like a simple medial ligament injury when watching. Not your usual ACL mechanism but was pretty awkward - really hope not! Such a shame, he has been looking ready to step up

    I’m guessing because the SSP period ends Monday, so if he is out for the season we could sign a player

    Why did he even land that way… it was so unusual.

    I think he was dazed from the hit. Passed the concussion test, but he definitely looked like he lost his balance mid air. I was down that end about 30-40m from the incident and that’s what it looked like to me.

    Will be gutted if this is a long termer. He deserves a crack at it, and offers us something promising.

    Fingers crossed for him.

    Looks like you are right. The club need an immediate scan to see the severity of his knee injury.

    A grade 1 MCL may be 3 weeks where as a Grade 3 injury is a much longer recovery time.

    Let's hope its a 3 weekend.

    And this is why I hate preseason matches and State of Origin matches and every other match that isn’t part of the season proper. Yes, I know this could’ve happened at any stage of any match but it sucks when it happens in a match worth a grand total of zero premiership points.

    Is the Richmond player that whacked him going to get weeks or what?

    Thought coat hangers went out of the game years ago.

    Been told Lukers acl is in tact but he needs a scan to confirm what has happened within the knee

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?
