I wish Wayne the best of health in his recovery but what a complete bust he has been as a first round selection.

We have got zero value out of his 5 year contract

Injuries suck, but they’re the only way we get a look at players outside the current 24. Milera is no great loss, but his injury does further guarantee Smith’s continued selection and the likelihood of Rory being rushed straight in.

Smith would have continued in the 22 regardless but hopefully the injury opens the door for Nank and he will be a lock for best 22 by end of the year

Sloane won’t be back IMO

This season is over before it has started.

 

[SydCrow]

Milera is an important player for us, gives us run and can actually hit a target. A significant loss.

Injury Update: Wayne Milera

The 26-year-old will have surgery in coming days

[kirky]

Is out of contract end of 2025 so fulfil his contract and then delist at end of 2025.

Harsh but the reality of football. He will have had 9 years of football contracts come end of 2025. We are not a charity.

Has averaged 12 games a year so far.

 

[CrowinNT]

Very disappointing diagnosis
All the best in his recovery

I feel Milera is pretty big loss, was really starting to show last year. But you’re right, this is the only way we got a look at Worrell from memory? Best 22 player sitting in the 2s.

Big loss but we have a taller clone in Nank wasting away in the sanfl.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Such a rare injury. Amazing that he's done it twice.

Vaguely remember Michael Long doing his ages ago and Jaeger O'Meara

recently. Others?

I also recall Milera having trouble during preseasons right back to his early years due to patella tendinitis so maybe he has some inherent weakness there.

Hard to imagine he'll be back in any meaningful capacity sadly. There's only so many setbacks the human body can take.

 

[1970crow]

Geez he’s been unlucky. Has he had the only 2 patella tendons in a decade?

 

[Eagleboy2011]

We also have a coach called Nicks.

Assuming he must have something structurally different in his knees?

 

[Barneythecrab]

Any word in Murphy?

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Any word in Murphy?

Sorry - I’m just rolling this out everywhere

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Any word in Murphy?

He was interviewed at the airport and said he was ok

 

[dylan123]

So with Milera gone for the season, should open up an extra list spot for a mid season pick or did we already have one?

I feel like if you do that injury twice, maybe there is something about your body or the way you play that makes you prone to it.

If we get any more meaningful games out of him it's a bonus at this stage. Time to have a look at who is going to replace him. It's irritating that we seem to rely on season-ending injuries to see what else is in the cupboard, but here we go again.

As long as we don't select Hamill to replace him...

Different legs too.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Very sad to see for Wayne, some players have lousy luck with injuries.

For the Crows, though, tbh it is not a big loss as some have suggested.

He comes back next year in the last year of his contract

We will then give him a 2 year deal to ''prove himself'' again
