He was very rusty: it was his first outing and he needed the run. Nowhere near his best.

His least effective game for a long time. But we were pounded in the middle.

Early signs are good.

Will see a specialist on Tuesday.  They are saying it's a lateral ligament which is not as bad as a pcl or ACL.

That is promising, but at lateral ligament is usually a 6 - 8  week injury, depending on how bad it is. I can't comment on how bad it is, but the scuttlebutt is suggesting it will be closer to 6 weeks. Not a disaster, but not the best.

Not enough listed players named in the bests,  those guys should be creaming it at that level aiming to play seniors.

I know we like positive signs of anything, but IMHO, 14-18 are the formative years of an athletes body, and thats where they really start learning the nuances of the game, how to play position, and refine their craft.

We will see, but if he plays even 50 games at AFL level he will be deemed a roaring success.

Given that players who cross from other countries eg the Irish and Americans are able to pick up the game with ZERO underage experience I cannot see how limited underage experience can be a death knell for Matt Owies.
