I remember back in 07/08 Beau Mustons name was thrown about as "The Next Big Thing". Somewher between then and now I've lost track. What happened?

Not sure about this but yes, the knees are shot.

We rolled the dice on him from day one. I was at the draft the day we picked him - he was on crutches as I recall, broken pelvis from a car accident.

What a dud of a draft that has turned out to be - I think we have five picks in the first round for Ellis, Bailey, Birchall, Dowler, Muston. Two players delisted, at least 5 knee reco's and only Birch would make the first 22.

Musto may well have been on crutches, but it was Beau Dowler who had the fractured pelvis.
