Can confirm that the LARS op will be in the week after the GF. Will be on the rookie list and all going well, will play maybe the 2nd half of next year.

Football is secondary

Your inside info on this is truly appreciated have been wondering when he would get the op

 

[bedford]

It will be one of the great comebacks, we hope

 

[Tedeski]

I think he will make it back this time.
It takes a special character to deal with these things.
He has what it takes.

 

[Wayne Swan]

Fingers crossed it goes well for him this time. If it does, he'll be a bonus new recruit, exactly what we are needing. Good luck Alex.

 

[GotTheGoodes]

Just hoping it goes well for him (forget the club for a second). He's a young man who's career he's dedicated himself to wholeheartedly. Even through what is the worst case scrnario for anyone in his line of work. He's fought hard for his chance of which he already had proven he deserves. He's just proving now he's not just a great player with strong skills, he's a committed young man with a strong determination & character.

 

[ponsdale]

He sure deserves for everything to go right this time. I'd love to see him back on the park with confidence.

 

[bedford]

Op back for a couple of weeks, nothing wrong though

 

[miggs]

Was awesome to see the Open mike ep on AJ, If youre not rooting for him to get back and playing then you dont love footy. Such a likable young bloke

That is awesome. I love clubs showing faith in players. He would be on a low wage, but the club showing faith in him would help recovery to no end.

Such good news!!!

 

[MARK In TIME]

This story deserves a happy ending.

Well done to the club for believing in him, and big hugs to Alex for not giving up.

 

[bedford]

Shit , I missed that the other day, he will have a big crack

 

[Tedeski]

That's what I love about this club.
They just do the right thing by a player that has just had bad luck after doing all he could to play senior footy at a young age.
The boy will play for nothing if he could just get back.
Love it!

 

[The Gong]

Awesome on numerous levels.

Awesome for AJ as he's gone through a couple of years of hell and to have the club stand by him and keep the dream alive of getting back on the park is a credit to him and them.

Awesome for the club if they get back a quality premiership defender to boost the list and repay their faith.

 

[Grongey]

Won't be a dry eye in the house if the kid can do a 'Menzel', and run out again for us.

Great news for aj. Is he any chance of getting back to senior football this year? I suspect his spirits would have been lifted by menzels return

No.

Not this year.

Unfortunately the season is over.
