'He's fine': Carlton dismisses 'fractured back' report on star mid
Carlton coach David Teague says he's unaware Patrick Cripps needs injection to get through games

In the Most Unsurprising News since Donald Trump suggested he'd consider breaking election promises, to the surprise of absolutely noone Patrick Cripps has a broken back from carrying 21 shithouse teammates for the past three years.
This reminds me quite a bit of Norf's situation with Rhys Shaw - an up & coming young talent ridden into the ground by excessive responsibility & lack of support.
Shouldn't it be time clubs became accountable for ruining careers like this? Obviously that would render ever Essendon* player over the past 16 years suitable to join a class action, but I'm not seeing a downside there. Similarly Willie Rioli could claim he was merely a victim of a notorious drug kulcha and we'd all believe him.
Meanwhile Carlton prepares to yolk a broke-down drysdale back to the wagon with no regard for its health. Anyone who's read Animal Farm knows how it ends.
