Bret Thornton Finished For The Season
Carlton are going to end the regular season with Bret Thornton out of the side, he will have an operation on his ankle.
Carlton are chasing a couple of wins to get some momentum going into next year, they are also chasing the top pick which would be a big help for the next decade. The loss of Thornton may not impact any of that.
From the Carlton site: Whitnall back; Thornton out for season
AFL Fantasy Impact:
Waite or O'hAilpin, or possibly both of them, will need to play in the back line now. Waite will be a good addition to fantasy teams while O'hAilpin won't provide a lot of stats. It could also mean Jamison plays a few more games, he is a very inexpensive fantasy player. Thornton will need to be traded off fantasy teams.
