Great.

Can the Serpell baggers let us know if it's too soon or should we add another 3-6 months?

One thing is certain: - if you don't play you can't injure yourself! 

The other certainty is that footballers want to play football!  Plus, their rehab really isn't over until they take to the field & play. 

So I expect ACL sufferers to want to play when they can, Taj is just like the many others.  There is only one way to find out if they are ready.  Due diligence says 12 months off from football (which Taj has done) but nobody can really know until they play. 
Its time to find out, good luck Taj ...

Hope his body can hold up. Super excited to see him play

[Tiger Khosh]

Awesome, hopefully him and Smillie are in the AFL side sooner rather than later.

Looks to have used his rehab time well to put on size, looks really fit.

Ahh, yes the 11am VFL curtain raiser at Marvel that currently we cannot go and watch because the gates at Marvel don't open until 1.45pm 

But anyways...good luck Taj.
