Very disappointing............apparently was having a ripper pre season

Had done extra work after disappointing last season.....Penny appeared to have dropped

[Impatient Sainter]

FFS sake the preseason hex strikes again!

Poor kid by all accounts he was flying on the track, he will return but Im devestated for him.

In a previous thread someone asked Jack Hayes role - and then this

[Saints58]

If coff out for most of season do we use the final spot on list now to cover any other injuries

LOL - I hereby recuse myself from applying for the position of Board Moderator - the lack of Capital letters for players names would be a paddling (lol)

Injuries are an unwanted part of footy but also unavoidable.

Terrible news for young Nick. He will be devastated. But if it is an ACL, then he must move on from this and give 100 percent focus to his rehab.

I'm sure the club and the players will be totally supportive.

Heartbreaking also for those of us who wanted to see NC have a breakout season.

F—-! This confirms my suspicions that we are cursed

I hope saying it three times means it gets lifted

Nick will come back, he's made of the right stuff.

Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaark

[The_Dud]

And so it begins...

[saynta]

Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaark

Yeah, my thoughts too.

[skeptic]

That has ruined my day

Hopefully not as bad as first thought

[Banger9798]

f***.

The only word for it.

[skeptic]

I suppose it’s just bad luck but I’m starting to seriously wonder what the guys are doing with match simulations at training.

We seem to be having a fair few really serious injuries every off-season as of late.

Hope the instruction isn’t attack every contest like your life depends on it like you would in a final.

How many impact injuries can you get!

Sigh… disappointed for the kid

I would say an ACL is more than likely and non-impact injury.

Could also happen just doing drills.

Terrible luck for him.

[older saint]

Risk of injury is part of sport, and many an ACL injury involves no contact.

Hopefully just a clean ACL and minimal or no meniscus damage for the longer term.

[skeptic]

Yeah I’m sure that’s the case

Just really hate this

Was so excited for Coff this season

Just when you think things are on the up you get this kick in the guts . Lets just hope it is not as bad as it sounds
