QuoteBRISBANE Lions utility Brent Staker will miss the entire 2012 season after deciding on traditional reconstructive surgery on his ruptured ACL.

Not good news that you will lose him for the year as Staker has played well for you guys.

And so it begins again ::)

+1 Really feel for Brent in this as he was one of the few success stories of the mature age trading we did after coming back from surgery as well. Trsut he will be back as good as ever for 2013. Hope we do not have too many more and can look up for next year.

Would have got a decent discount for 2012 DT...

Now however he'll be ROOKIE priced for 2013 DT...

I know he isn't really a fantasy gun but would be good cover/cow.

Think he is more suited to SC than DT especially he moves forward again.

I know he isn't too fantasy relevant, but he'd be good in both forms...

He'd probably be cheaper than first round draft picks and will play 22 if fit, therefore good cover and could be used as a cash cow in both forms
