A rotten and sad turn of events for Dunn.

With Reid remaining suspect to injury perhaps we'll need to look towards McLarty or another come the mid season draft as we lack depth in the key position as it is.

Would’ve been nice if Marsh was still available....

Not even Sam Rowe is available in the mid season draft. Will need to find a hidden gem in the state league.

Surely we now have a spot open for the MSD? Don't want to rely on Roughead, Moore not breaking down, broken down Reid or 1st year 85kg Will Kelly.

We didn’t have Moore, Roughead or Dunn for most of the year (2018) and we still made the Granny but yeah....

We made the GF without any of them so we'll be right, hopefully lightning doesn't strike twice.

Judging by that footage I’d be shocked if the diagnosis is anything other than ACL.

**** footy is cruel. Dunn went his entire career without playing finals only to be robbed of a shot at a flag last year. Now it looks like he may never play finals. Not fair that such a good bloke gets such a raw deal.

And now he has to endure the pain of the football world seeing him bite some Richmond two's scrubs candy as his last moment.

Correct. He has been a great example and mentor to other players during his short career with us and recovery. Commiserations to the guy. He deserved better.
 
Yeah would require a full 12 months this time. Probably longer to err on the side of caution. Means he's not AFL ready til mid 2020. Will be near 33 by then

I say he will either be Assistant coach for Rest of the Season then
