Yeah bummer, good news is he doesn't need surgery, looks like 6 weeks in a moon boot.

 

[serial_thrilla]

Take it easy with him and aim for after the bye.

 

[PurpleGreenRed]

Another break to the leg he broke. Poor Bloke. At least he's got Nat to give him support.

 

[M_rash]

Our players take their mums advice too literally! "Break a leg" doesn't actually mean break your leg

Dawson and Collins like this. Next soldier up!

 

[Reverse Torp]

And the winner of the worst pre-season award goes to 2016/17

 

[Clinteaux]

Jesus terrible news ... didn't one of the training reporters just say today that things were looking good on the injury front !

Anyone else a bit worried that he broke his leg in what sounds like a simple 'running session' ??

 

[scon]

I'm hopeful Sweetback is right and it a stress fracture.Still not fantastic but slightly better than another impact fracture.

 

[StingBitten]

I'm almost already into 'whatever' mode and the season hasn't even started yet.

 

[Deveraux]

Seems like it was fairly innocuous? Doesn't bode well...

The first break was as well really wasn't it, just looked like a routine one foot landing... shrug. Such a bright future, let's hope he can get a decent run at some point.

 

[Sweetback]

I'm hopeful Sweetback is right and it a stress fracture.Still not fantastic but slightly better than another impact fracture.

Usually if you have a stress fracture you can't run for six weeks. Alex has to be in a brace for six weeks so I'm just putting two and two together. I'm probably barking up the wrong tree but it's not the end of the world.

In any case, it keeps Collins in the frame. I don't think we've seen the best of him yet.

 

[freodog]

Didn't he go in to get his plate removed? Maybe it refractured in the same spot following that?

s**t news about A Pearce

Good young player so hopefully it's a relatively minor setback and he's back as soon as possible after the 6-10 week layoff that's being reported

 

[Allikat]

Aw poor Alex. Hopefully we're just getting all the crap out of the way before the season start

 

[armpit]

Looks like we'll be plumbing our depth as it turns out. You've gotta feel sorry for pearce.

 

[DMan 11]

Sorry guys - AP's injury was probably my fault....As a buddy, sometimes you just gotta fall on the sword.
I was silly enough to ask how he was tracking last week in the training thread.
Don't worry, I've imposed a 6 week training ban on myself - promise I won't run at full pace during this time.
Or at all.

 

[Righteo]

Urge to melt rising

 

[Suma Magic]

Sucks about Pearce, such a good player. Hopefully he is back early and it's his last injury in a long time.

 

[electricfeel]

UGH WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE PEARCE!??!?!??!

 

[M_rash]

UGH WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE PEARCE!??!?!??!

Because it wasn't Suban or the other Pearce???

 

[Fred Ziffel]

The sooner we get out of that ******* shithole that is Fremantle Oval, the better.

I have said it before. It is the goddamn hard surface there.

Just * the joint off.

 

[ydraw]

It's almost like it isn't a coincidence that players re-breaking their legs only happens to one club in the AFL.

I'm a bit worried that a bloke who clearly isn't fully recovered from a broken leg is running at all.

We currently have 3 of our best 22 carrying or recovering from broken legs, all of them recurring injuries. We are doing something wrong in our training or our medical room.

This is a serious issue the club needs to address.
