Just posted up by MelbourneFC that Daniel Cross will miss the next 4 - 6 weeks with a fractured leg which happened late in the game against North Melbourne.
Tough luck for Crossy. I was kind of looking forward to seeing him go about his business against us this weekend.

Re: Daniel Cross Fractures Leg
4-6 sounds optimistic. Might have played his last game, which would make his transition to Melbourne a forgettable one

Re: Daniel Cross Fractures Leg
No reason why he can't play on. Has been one of their best this year.

Re: Daniel Cross Fractures Leg
Would certainly be retained for next season based on form and contribution to the side. I don't think they are mature enough, or progressed as much as Roos would like to be with their understanding of the game plan, to lose Cross at the end of this year.

Re: Daniel Cross Fractures Leg
Hope he comes back before seasons end.
I'd imagine he'd go around again next season .

Good luck and health to him.

Re: Daniel Cross Fractures Leg
I reckon Crossy will be back before the end of the season.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

It's a shame for him. He will be back in record time

Re: Daniel Cross Fractures Leg
Still a firm favorite of mine and impossible to believe he won't defy the odds. Best of luck for his recovery.

Re: Daniel Cross Fractures Leg
Just heard on the radio that Melbourne are wrapped with Crossy and are definitely going to re-sign him for nest season.
