Fletcher could miss eight weeks
X-rays have confirmed Dustin Fletcher has a cracked left fibula with further scans tomorrow to determine the length of time the champion full back will be sidelined. Fletcher sustained the injury when he was tackled early in the third quarter.
X-rays have confirmed Dustin Fletcher has a cracked left fibula with further scans tomorrow to determine the length of time the champion full back will be sidelined. Fletcher sustained the injury when he was tackled early in the third quarter.
The best case scenario for Fletcher is that the crack is hairline which would sideline him for about a month. If the scans reveal more significant damage, the Bombers could be without Fletcher for the next eight weeks.
On a positive note, Mark McVeigh will attempt to push himself up for selection this week. McVeigh has been struggling to shake an ankle injury but is some sort of chance of lining up against the Hawks.
