Astbury ankle injury thats all we need

Did the exact same thing 2 years ago. Highest grade ankle sprain they call it, torn ligaments and partly and chipped bone in everyone elses terms. Hope I'm wrong but didn't look like a normal rolled ankle.
 
I like Dave but he's systematic of the typical Richmond player. Has a little bit of talent but will never be realised. Spend 6 or 7 seasons waiting for him to develop and then......nothing.

yeah
 
I feel for the he guy as he is plagued by injury.

But on the flip side he has been a major cause for the type of football we are playing. He is that stop / start player who gives you nothing when going into attack mode.

Yeah likewise

Its a shame that he keeps breaking down, but he really lacks pace and the decision making instinct that someone like Rance has - tough barometer, sure, but he is really quite slow with ball in hand.

I had high hopes for him but i think its an injury too many now

Might as well see what Elton can do
