A serious knee injury during the match last week against South Morang has ended Shannon Gibsons football career. X-rays immediately after the game showed some damage but scans the next week provided a conclusive "picture" as to the extent.
Gibbo says he would have preferred to hang up the boots after a successful finals campaign this year and the premature retirement is a real disappointment.....a strong and successful Finals campaign to finish on would have been great to be part of as a player.
The positive he could take out of this is the fact he actually left the ground to take the mark !!!!
<---- If surgery is necessary Shan, here's a suggestion for the reconstruction.
