Injury Murray ACL (last year... cleared of major damage this year)

Geez what an absolute cluster **** last week was. Nicks's selection bullshit, season injury to our best defender, nasty hamstring to our best small forward, screwed by the umps in a close loss, and Showdown the following week. I'm completely demoralised at this point. I can genuinely say that footy brings me no joy at all these days.
And all our list management plans now have "KPD" as a priority.
It's the lack of flag in the past 25 years that kills me.

if it was a bone break or a muscle injury - maybe. An ACL means the full recovery time and none of this LARS surgery or whatever they call it. He is still young so do it properly and get it right

Makes me even more annoyed that we didn't expose Borlase against the Bombers or even earlier

A KPD was always a priority .....once McAsey went, it was obvious from a list balance perspective, he had to be replaced

Faaark that's brutal - he's been great for us. Hope he recovers well! 9 months of gym, he may come back an absolute beast, he's already pretty damn strong 
. Guess we'll get to see either Borlase and or Keane play now.

Doesn't really matter. We need to find out now for next season.

Disaster, not only for Murray and the short term future of the team but the long term future of the club as they have no one of near quality to replace him on the list and now the club have to go out & find a replacement with that opposition club knowing how desperate they are & will demand all the Crows trade currency, so other deficiencies like midfield will fall to the way side.
Someone probably has to stop Nicks from telling list management to double their offer to the 187cm Tom Doedee as he’d want to use him as the replacement key tall defender from round 6 onwards next year.

Crows defender learns of devastating injury in heartbreaking circumstances, Rankine ruled out
Adelaide advised of the injury blows late on Monday afternoon.

It’s a double blow for the Crows, with Murray’s absence to compound that of Izak Rankine’s hamstring injury.
Adelaide has now ruled out the former Sun for up to a month as a result of the blow suffered against Melbourne.
“While it’s disappointing to lose Izak, fortunately there was little to no tendon involvement, so he will begin his rehab process and we anticipate that being 3-4 weeks before he returns to play,” Burgess added.
“Izak has had hamstring injuries in the past, so he knows what is required with his rehabilitation and will work closely with our medical team to get back.”

Shattering news. He was really showing some good signs this year. A big hole to fill next year with few on the list that can fill it.
I'd almost prefer we put Izak on ice, start his preseason earlier.Some less bad news re IzakCrows defender learns of devastating injury in heartbreaking circumstances, Rankine ruled out

This is flipping terrible news. Been our biggest improver imo.
and now we know hamish will pick a flipping defender with our first pick.

That's the positive from a timing point of view. We have five weeks to see what we have on the list that could do the job and the off-season to get the right cover for next year.

We'll have a pick around 6...
Why? Drafting a young KPD with our 1st rounder will pretty much mean we have a lesser Murray in 2025 on the list when he returns. I'm not appose to even using either of our 2nd rounders but definitely not our 1st which will now be quite early.

What shit news.
Need to try all of Keane, Borlase & Himmelberg for the remainder of the year to see if anyone stands up... or we need to trade in someone.

With the terrible news of Muzza's knee injury, what KPD's in the early part of the 2nd round do you see being there possibly we should be looking at.
Under no circumstance whatsoever should our 1st be in play as that has to be for a Sanders or a Durrsma type - must be quarantined.
