#27 Mason Redman - till end 2028

Another seriously Injury prone kid. Theres a few at the club who are not very durable

Most clubs have kids that are injury prone. Thatā€™s just the way the cookie crumbles, unfortunately.

Gees who is negative nancy, hardly something that would relate to being injury prone. Modern game as well considered everyone is pushed to being prime, this is just an unfortunate injury that could happen to anyone.

Durable lol could dig out a few comments of your own that are not durable :wink:

Bad luck for the young man. He was looking set to break into the 22, and l was looking forward to seeing him take big strides in that direction. This injury will have set him back in his preparation, but he will work hard to overcome. Good luck MR on your recovery, l want to see you back kicking goals with both feet.

Anyone have any idea of a prognosis for a non displaced fracture on the ankle? Surgery?

Non displacement could mean no surgery is needed and less trauma to area surrounding the break, but still will take the same time to mend.

There are LOTS of variables that have not been disclosed as yet, that make it impossible to predict.

Best case scenario, a stable # low on the fibula. Has surgery and heā€™s weight bearing immediately after, running within a month, available to play in the praccy games.

Worse scenarios could involve the tibia, talus or navicular, particularly with some chondral involvement and we might not see him til after the season starts. Out as far as absolute worst case which is basically Gleeson mark II. We see him mid year at best.

AFL players will usually have surgery despite the fact it is non-displaced as it allows for sooner weight bearing/training.

Short answer. 6 weeks to 8 months.

Iā€™m not sure what KP backmen have to do with Redman

Hopefully back to back ankles doesnā€™t rob him of the ā€˜pep in his stepā€™

Francis, Ridley, Zerk Thatcher, Hartley, Brown and the return of Gleeson on top of Hurley and Hooker would all be in the same role as Redman

No.
