PREMIERSHIP coach David Parkin has emerged as an unlikely mentor in Anthony Morabito's remarkable comeback from two knee reconstructions.

Hearing rumours that Morabito has left the track early today with a sore leg

:( :( :( :(

[SydneyRox]

You are soooooo mean to me!! :(


Lol - went to have a look at the fremantle website for something else, and got the AFL 'out of bounds' page!!

I am hearing a few things

1) Twisted Ankle - I am praying for this
2) Twisted Knee
3) Leg

Trying to get confirmation of what it is

Seriously, this is getting beyond a joke.

Shocking run for the poor guy. :'( Let's pray it's not too serious.

The 21-year-old was tackling teammate Tanner Smith when he yelled out in pain and grabbed his left knee - the same knee the midfielder has had operated on twice in the past two years.

I hope this isnt true

AFL on twitter

Fremantle confirm that Anthony Morabito left the training track today with a suspected knee injury. Will undergo further medical assessment.

Awful luck for him!
Well.. there goes my smokie for 2013

Apparently there is video footage but I cant get a hold of it..... not high enough on the ladder to get that sort of information.  Apparently Ross is the one who drove him to get further scans.

From what I have been told it was during a tackle with Tanner Smith and his knee got twisted.  Michael Walters is the one who called out for the physios while Mora was punching the shower out of the ground, with his head between his knees.

I feel so badly for him.  I hope the scans come back with the best possible news.

Wow feel really sorry for the kid. Surely though if he's done his ACL for the third time it's time to start finding a new career?
