BBO round 21 wtf, that’s essential out for the regular season.

Seems like a bloody long term recovery required given it was an injury sustained last year

Shame - would have been good if fit to put pressure on Flannos spot

Might be a mistake or some quirk of injury reporting?
ACL is serious but would be surprised if it takes 6 months from 'on-field running' to full fitness.
If the running bit is true, then it might May or June? Which is consistent with other reports.

I think this is a mistake. It also says he will return in july. Thats not round 21.

Round 21: Bulldogs V Panthers. 2pm. Sunday, 23 July 2023.
It is a very serious injury. They're being cautious and trying to manage expectations.
He might beat the clock and get back a little sooner. Might not.
