Jagga/Newman/Charlie great start to our year.

Charlie meant to be back rnd 1 or 2?

Sometimes it’s the surface you know… Just saying.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Season is looking over before it begins.

Trade two first round draft picks for the one who does an ACL is his first hit out. Wouldn't read about it

Not only that, if we didn’t trade for him we could have had Dan Houston off half back but of course Newman’s injury just compounds the whole ****ing lot……

Yep we are cursed for sure !!

 

[passmark]

Really crap news for the kid

Let's not use it as an out, Lions had 5 players go down with knee injuries

Did they have a poltergeist to contend with?

 

[Opium]

Really crap news for the kid

Let's not use it as an out, Lions had 5 players go down with knee injuries

We aren't the Lions and we don't have the same depth. Need to find 80 goals to replace owies and Charlie's output just to match last season.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

For a player who relies on agility and lateral movement so much this could have far-reaching repercussions.

Sickening.

 

[LanceRomance]

I'm 99% convinced the ground at Optus Oval is wreaking havock on your players. It can no longer be a coincidence.

Ground was just resurfaced, so this isn't a surprise.

Doesn't make it feel any better though.

 

[Lach72]

Best of luck to the young bloke.

Horrible news

 

[OurBoysInBlue]

No more playing important players in practice matches. This is beyond ridiculous

Jagga situation has nothing to do with Charlie or Owies

 

[Markyd]

Everything we touch turns to I can’t think of a more cursed football club.
Was so excited for the season, until now…

 

[RPCB]

Let’s just hope his recovery is as good as ashcrofts was. We can’t afford to **** this up.

Another long term injury and our season is over before it began. Again.

Spot has opened up just after the SSP Window closes again. Geez we’re a lucky bunch

How do you mean? Did Ashcroft come back sooner than expected?

 

[SurreyBlue]

How about what the opposition were bringing on the day????
Corkies everywhere plus ankles and now knees. All to do with tackles!

 

[Opium]

Jagga situation has nothing to do with Charlie or Owies

Never said it did. But losing a gun midfielder certainly doesn't help.

 

[Hurricane Murphy]

This is obviously heart breaking but the amount of season over calls already are absurd

If our season hinged on a 0 game draft prospect then it was already over.

All good teams get it done with injuries, and losing our first year pick shouldn't derail anything.

Were saints playing dirty?

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Absolutely devastating for the poor kid, especially after being on such a high being drafted and about to play your first game in front of 90k+ crowd.

As an aside, a message to our coaching staff - stop ****ing around and get Billy into a midfield role in the VFL!!! As Austin said after we drafted him, he gives us a point of difference, and we selected him as a mid. Played his best football there when he won the B&F with the Stingrays, but for some reason we're reluctant to play him there.

 

[marcmurphy3]

Just ridiculous. So innocuous. Sick of this. Taking some time out. Not blaming anyone in particular but this has to be one of the most frustrating clubs in world sport to follow.

His durability was one of his main pros when we drafted him. Literally hasn't missed a game in years.

 

[Rustica]

****ing cursed

****ing over it all

What in the actual **** man

 

[bigblueboy]

Were saints playing dirty?

No

 

[Rustica]

JUST FOR ONCE CAN WE HAVE A BEST 22

 

[PumpyChowdown]

Fornicate EVERYTHING about this! Feel so sorry for the kid.

In other news I asked ChatGPT what the slowest and most painful way to kill yourself was and the answer was "Try supporting the Carlton Football Club".

 

[Graffy4242]

Missing two of our best 22 for the season.

Beginning the season with both hands tied behind our back.

You couldn't script this shit.

Devastated

 

[bigm386]

Heart broken for Jagga. The kid by all reports goes about it the right way and works hard. A real shame.

Don't know what else to say.
