Hopefully not long before Gary Busey is back on track

I do feel for him. The way we acquired him felt like we had another Courtney John’s situation on our hands. He overcame that and I don’t think there was anything more he could have done to push for selection last year. A bit unlucky not to play more senior games than he did.

This summer it looks like he has done everything right and pushed himself to the absolute limit and then this to happen now. It such a shame and it shows how cruel this sport can be sometimes. I just hope it doesn’t put him out for a whole season.

"Return to play can take several weeks and even months with either type of treatment. Determined by the degree of injury, return to play after tarsal navicular stress fractures is typically a minimum of 12 weeks, and can be longer."

The Sofronidis bloke being invited to train with us makes a lot more sense now.

If he doesn't get on the park he's delist material.
