THE DEBUT of North Melbourne draftee Liam Anthony has been put on hold after stress fractures were discovered in his foot on Thursday.
Anthony was named on a wing in North's side to play Melbourne at the MCG on Sunday, but soreness after training prompted the club to send him for scans.
Chief of football Donald McDonald said the stress fractures could sideline the 21-year-old for up to six weeks.
"It's just a matter now of just assessing him next week and Con Mitropoulos, our doctor, will probably look at fitting him in a camwalker (boot)," he said.
"Initially there's going to be a bit of rest because he's going to have to stay off it for the healing process."
McDonald added that it was difficult to put a timeframe on when Anthony could push for AFL selection after his recovery, given teammate Matt Riggio took four weeks to overcome a shin stress reaction.
"He might only need the one or two weeks running around in the VFL, so we'll just have to wait and see how it all goes," he said.
Anthony, recruited at No. 43 in November's NAB AFL Draft, had been one of the Roos' stand-out performers over the summer.
Dean Laidley and his assistant coaches flagged his round one prospects soon after the first intra-club match early last month.
"The positive thing is he's had a fantastic preparation and he's very, very fit and has got a fantastic attitude towards his preparation," McDonald said.
"He's very disappointed. It was going to be his first game and he had all of his family ready to fly over.
"We were really looking forward to Liam adding a lot of bite to our midfield but, unfortunately, he won't be there. But we're confident he's going to be a long-term player for us."
Anthony was tight-lipped about his selection at Arden Street on Tuesday but said that three years' experience with WAFL club East Fremantle had helped his adjustment to the elite level.
First-round draft pick Jack Ziebell will line up against the Demons, while Andrew Swallow – who played just three games last year – takes Anthony's place in the final 22. http://www.kangaroos.com.au/season20...7/default.aspx

LAIDLEY strikes again! Be gone with you DT-DEVIL!!!!
Err why?
Surely if he is on your bench, trading out a rookie for another makes not sense at this stage.
Short term pain for long term gain etc.

Only good news to come of this is Robinson is my emg, so his 90 points count. However now i have to hope Beams can get a game or else i dont have any playing midfield emg.....

There it is, my first DT kick to the testicles for 09. I forgot what that felt like.
Depending on whether Beams gets named next week, I will look at a Robinson trade, but TBH it's not a matter of urgency for me, I'm confident I won't need a midfield emergency.

makes him a very good trade down target if you trade him out now however. just comes back to how many trades you have spare and how much are they worth to you.
its long enough to get another rookie in, harvest the cash from them and then trade them down to anthony.
I have anthony and robinson on the bench, so not a huge problem atm. my backline is looking very shakey after 1 game of the first round however.
