Feel bad for Nic. Horrible to have to miss a full season and go through all the recovery etc, especially when it's not the first time it's happened. Opposite leg to last time though.

The Hawks have the Blues first two draft picks, and I guess this injury probably makes things a bit tougher for Carlton, but you still don't want anything like this happening.

BRISBANE'S injured brigade took another giant step towards Opening Round availability on Friday by completing a strong training session at Brighton Homes Arena.

Keidean Coleman, Linc McCarthy, Tom Doedee and Darcy Gardiner – all on the comeback trail from ruptured anterior cruciate ligaments – ran strongly in the Brisbane heat.

Coleman and McCarthy also took part in a number of team drills to signify their progress.

The Lions have a lengthy rehabilitation group seven weeks before their premiership defence begins against Geelong, with Oscar McInerney, Henry Smith and No.5 draft pick Levi Ashcroft all progressing from off-season shoulder surgeries.

The trio donned fluorescent yellow 'no contact' caps at Springfield and are also on track for the season start.

Co-captain Lachie Neale (plantar fascia) who battled right throughout last September to help lead his team to a flag, is back running twice a week and also took part in team drills, while forward Eric Hipwood (groin) did a modified workload.

Hugh McCluggage (foot) is also in rehab.

Brutal, he had all the potential to be a breakout Supercoach star this year

“Mattaes pulled up a bit sore on Friday, so we monitored his recovery over the weekend. His pain was still present on Monday, so we sent him off for scans that confirmed the diagnosis.
“He’ll be on crutches for the next couple of weeks, then we’re looking at 10-12 weeks of rehabilitation and reloading after that.

Marshall big injury news as well
“Rowan’s going for a CT scan tomorrow to assess the extent of a stress fracture in his pelvis,” Misson said.
“He’s been on modified duties since last week to assist with the management of the injury, but we’ll have a better idea of his recovery after the scan tomorrow.

“We’re hopeful that Rowan will be available for Round 1 or soon thereafter.”

The Saints have initially indicated Marshall will miss five-to-eight weeks, with the club set to play its round 1 game in six weeks time.
