Collingwood’s Sean Rusling Out With Shoulder Injury
Exciting Collingwood forward Sean Rusling will miss several months with a shoulder injury. Here is a short report from the AFL site:
Rusling to miss most of season
AFL Fantasy Impact
Rusling had the potential to be a big player in fantasy stats, he could have accumulated plenty of marks, kicks and goals as he would have provided a lot of the things that Tarrant did for Collingwood. Now the door is open for another player to be a regular forward for the Magpies and they could also become a valuable fantasy player. Thomas and Pendlebury are candidates, they both have the athleticism that Rusling has, they already are worth playing in fantasy leagues but now their value might go up a bit more. Medhurst is a different type of player to Rusling, Medhurst has shown in the past that he can kick goals. The back line is settled this season at Collingwood with their three veteran talls, maybe first round picks Brown and Reid get a chance to play up forward. As Rusling was going to be an aerial target in the Magpies' forward line, if they want to replace him with another marking player then Cloke could see more playing time. A long-term injury to Rusling could also open up a senior spot for a rookie, Clarke could have a chance to make a debut ahead of schedule.
