[Hands On]

Weiter's is our general and plays an important role up back. But if we are going to the next level we need to be able to adjust and cover for him.

Should be back before the finals.

Had dinner at a restaurant on Lygon after the kids clinic on Tuesday and the owner said he had some players in recently and that he asked them about Weiters injury.
Apparently the players said the club will be ultra conservative and think a round 4 return is likely.

Heard similar... When he did it, fears were it was at the extreme end of a calf injury, but later was 'bad' but not 'extreme' (my words). Will treat conservatively, with a view to a return in the first month of the season.

Well done mods on the no discussion thread.

I can’t stand it when this thread gets bumped…

SOS has indeed done his ACL. let’s hope he recovers well. Unlucky lad.

 

[carlton_99]

Horrible news - was looking forward to what he would bring in 2024. Just terrible luck

That's terrible. Will need a new plan for backup ruck. At least with the timing he will be able to hit the ground running for 2025.

It feels like we get at least one every year though most clubs probably do

Devastating news

 

[Benaly28]

The plan will be Lewis young

Sickening, feel for him and his family.

will miss the upcoming 2024 AFL season after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).

The injury occurred during training today, with Silvagni immediately sent for scans, that subsequently confirmed the ACL injury.
The 26-year-old will have surgery before commencing his rehabilitation.

Mirkov and O’Keefe backing up Pitto and TDK? Young can ruck too

 

[agro]

Wouldn’t be a Carlton pre-season without this sort of news

Wishing a full recovery

 

[Soapy V]

Sh1t.

He was looking great. Awesome person as well.

I wish him the best in his recovery and look forward to seeing him back soon

 

[Opium]

How many players on our list with ruptured ACL injuries. It's really beyond a joke now. Every bloody year!!

 

[BlueAbroad]

 

[passmark]

that’s news has mad me quite sweary.

 

[Jatz]

Oh for * sake. That's brutal.

Just a freak accident or could it be related to the knee issues he was having at the back end of last season?

 

[RPCB]

Oh man, horrible horrible news.
