    Oh no!
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Do you think after 3 knees that he will come back? The only positive can be that he is still so young.

    Worth a shot like Williams IMO. A limited contract, but full support of the club. See by end of next year.

    I just feel crushed to see the poor kid go through this again. I'm sure the club will stick by him, but I'd admire him no less if he decided he did not want to go through it all again.
    It's just terrible his body just doesn't seem able to give him a fair chance.
    All best wishes to this terrific young man.

    Maybe Lars is worth a shot this time

    Re: We still love you Clay.

    I was wondering the whole time if he came back too early. I kinda thought, and no expert here for sure, that this year would be a slow process for him that would result in playing some games in the VFL towards the end of the season. Was so surprised to see him back so early.

    Fingers crossed for Clay Smith. Get well as soon as you can Clay. This time spend 2016 working your way back into the VFL slowly then look to a good preseason for 2017.

    Sad news.

    Have to question the decision to bring him back on after the first incident, but seems either way he'd have done it again unfortunately.

    I hope we explore going with LARS - might be his last shot.

    I am absolutely gutted for the kid. He can't take a trick.
    Lars has to be the go for him this time around because the traditional doesn't seem to be working for him.

    All the best for a speedy recovery Clay.

    Yep. Could have happened getting out of the car or with his first kick at the next training session. Horrible luck. Like others have said, I would love him back but can totally understand if he doesn't want to go through it all again.

    Gutted. I don't know what to say.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
