Been dealt some harsh blows by the footy gods since the three peat. Mitchell broken leg, Impey knee, Cyril retiring but this one almost trumps them all.
Looking like it’s gonna be a challenging couple of years while we rebuild ourselves back into contention..

Awful news, wish him all the best in his recovery.
Shite news. Sis will come back stronger physically and mentally. For better or worse he has a couple of team mates who have been through it to lean on.

This is terrible news for him and the club.
He's been our best intercept player, provides a lot of drive off half back.
Interestingly this year when you look at score involvements from our backs Blake Hardwick is leading the way with 21, then Scrimshaw at 18, Sicily at 16 and Day with 15
When you think about the fact that Day and Scrimmers have played almost half the games this season as Sis and Dimma I'm hoping this will give them both an opportunity to get even more ball flow through them as they have shown the ability to be dangerous with it

Totally sucks. But as Yabby would say, crisis creates opportunity so time for some else to standup. Just thinking, would Will Day have been given such a chance to play if Impey wasn’t injured?
Yeah. And didn’t Ceglar do his ACL in the same match? It’s a cruel occupation at such times.
Just when 2020 was going awful, it writes 2021 off to.
Ah well, we will just need to invest heavily in the draft. Which was thr right play even pre Sic ACL

Make a speedy recovery champ.
Sicily, Mitchell and Impey all cut down by serious injury whilst in career best form. Crap draw, crap form and now this. Haven’t even got next season to look forward to now!!

Shocking news. Hope his recovery goes well and he gets a few games at the end of next year.
Irreplaceable... And to think he will now miss all of 2021.
Looking forward to the 2022 pre-season reports already.

That news has just plain and simply ****ed my day!

Would have to happen at this point of the year too where it's going to write off most of next season too.
Hopefully something positive can come from his time out of the side. That others step up in his absence and we discover a few players we might not have otherwise.
And hopefully this removes any temptation that we might be able to top-up again, and instead we just commit to the draft.

The only silver lining is it'll make the decision to rebuild an eaiser one - and we still have a number of games left in the year for Clarko to observe how we perform without him.
Look at it this way guys - if our football team is destined to have a couple of shit years what better time to bank them than during pandemic-affected seasons?
Our Chief Medical Officer isn't predicting a vaccine for 12-18 months so 2021 will probably wind up being just as compromised as 2020, a perfect opportunity for James to put his feet up while we regroup & prepare for the future.

2020 hey ? What an absolute overturned shit truck of a year. All the best to James in his surgery and recovery.
The season has been terrible but this is a true disaster. He is one of only a couple pieces that we could have real confidence in over the next couple seasons. He's now gone for 2021. You'd think that takes him out of captaincy discussion for next year too. This puts a real dent in our plans moving forward.
