from Today's Age....

...Former captain Kane Johnson's knee surgery last week means he is unlikely to be able to play again before round five.

Johnson, who injured his knee in the club's NAB Cup loss to Collingwood, had an arthroscope on the joint last week. "It's early days with Kane because the surgery was only last Friday but the early indications are that there is only a small amount of swelling and he is feeling good," Monaghan said.

"We would hope he is back playing footy again (in the VFL) by about round five."

Unless our midfield falls over dramatically I cant see him getting back in apart from cameo's on the bench

Agreed.  If he gets back to a regular spot then it will mean 1 of 2 things - we have multiple injuries or we are playing like crap.

With Question Marks all over Cogs Cotch and Cousins fitness....Kane is a handy player to have on our list.
Players like White and Edwards are still probably a year away from becomming AFL standard midfielders too.Im happy for Kane to play out this year then retire.
Just dont pass it to him when he is running into an open goal
