Is that his third?


Yep. Did his 1st in the U18's

How so?

It's been about 12 months since the first one.

That's standard for the scar tissue to strengthen.

Some of us just aren't built for this level of sport.

Writing was on the wall after his second. I recall comments about gawn this and that.

Well the second one was stupidity by the club, but now his third on the same knee says to me he is finished.

I feel the kid, but why was he rushed. Second one on the same knee should have meant more time on the sidelines IMO. It wasn't a standard situation I would have thought.

Let's hope Gibcus doesn't go down the same route, though his career doesn't  look great either.

Are you really suggesting you know better than Serpell? Ridiculously naive.

If you are going to make grand statements can you please ensure your rant includes facts

He did his 1st ACL in under 18's in 2019. So there was a 5 year gap between knee injuries

He was not rushed... not sure how you can suggest he was when many on here sooked it up because he missed longer than the standard 12 months, when they club wouldn't give a definitive time line on his return

But yet people still complain, look for someone to blame.

Can understand angst at the situation when he did his second knee but this time around we have done just about all that could be done imo.

Good luck to him i think its going to be a big uphill battle from here on in.

Well given it was the same knee I would have thought a few months would have been reasonable

I don't think it matters tbh. He clearly doesn't have the body for afl
