Jack Billings Out Injured For Up to 8 Weeks

[Vortex]

Being reported scans revealed a hairline fracture to his right fibula

FFS, the guy can't take a trick.

[aussie sainter]

Confirmed by the club

[Otiman]

Unlucky, looked promising in the scratch match. The door opens for Poo.

At this rate, would be gone by the end of the year.

[MC Gusto]

That’s really unfortunate for Jack

[skeptic]

I’ll say the same thing I said about Jones… there’s always something.

Put a line through him

Fortunately he's a player we have backup for. Crickey we are only one injury to another key position player away from ensuring we end up bottom 4.

Imagine if someone like RoMa was to go down...touch wood.

WTF Our club has definitely upset the footy karma gods - we cant take a trick. Have to feel for poor Jack after all that time in rehab to break his leg, hopefully the tide turns before too long.

In fairness, he was highly unlikely to be a major feature this season anyway

[Devilhead]

Fit and firing he is easily in our best 22

Has been consistently injured/playing injured for the last 4 years

[CQ SAINT]

Billings took a cheap contract to get himself a chance of recovering or at least being traded. Put a line through him and move on with Byrnes, Windhager, Phillipou, Owens and Hotton.

There goes my Jack Sinclair fairytale number two story…
26? 27?

Maybe he could be a Mason Wood..

He got the big contract, faded, got the little contract and he is fading..

The inj list is getting bigger by the day.I am calling out you lot,who ran over the blak cat

[Gershwin]

Hard not to feel gutted for the lad. Tries his hardest and this is cruel. Lots of competition for his spot and this may be the beginning of the end.

I'm beginning to wonder if we should change our nickname to the Quentin's . The late actor/writer / mate of Mike Willisee's .
I reckon if he was still around his body would hold up better than most of our team .

I thinks Ratts may be driving that Karma bus.

[Scollop]

Reminds me of Shaun Higgins a bit …except Jack has a smaller noggin

Higgins flourished late in his career when his body finally stood up to the rigours.

Earnt himself 2 x Best and fairests with North Melbourne as well as AA honours in 2018 at the ripe age of 30

Here’s hoping JB has a huge 2024/2025

[B.M]

FFS

He can’t take a trick

What is it with all of the fkn injuries?!

The two-year contract stuff suggests the club knows they are dealing with a frail body.
