The Moment Alex Woodward tore his 5th ACL

VFL Collingwood v Box Hill

[@dylankumar8288]

For anyone wondering Alex Woodward was the runner who infamously got in the way of Stephenson in the 2018 grand final giving Yeo an easy intercept and then going on to kick the goal. Horrific bad luck for the bloke

[@Magicdudex1]

Was a shit kick to Stephenson and probably wouldn’t of Marked it anyway

[@dylankumar8288]

Yeah Iook I hate the pies so it was good to see them lose that match

[@jeff-jeff9593]

He was just doing his job as he was told to go out and he was just in the wrong position at the wrong time but Collingwood lost so I’m happy

[@haydosoey3398]

Poor bloke

[@carletonclements4931]

It happened against Collingwood too. XD

[@savige2012]

Never heard of this bloke, but 5 ACL's? Damn dude... Real sorry to see that :(

[@brandonbarker7867]

Calm he never broke into the AFL he was at hawthorn and Collingwood and retired last year

[@savige2012]

@@brandonbarker7867 Yeah that does not surprise me dude, players are lucky to get listed into AFL with 1 ACL let alone 5. They almost said no to Mathew Llloyds recruitment to Essendon because of some ligament damage he got in his ankle after stacking a push bike when he was a kid. They coming down hard on pre existing injuries nowadays its great.

That poor guy. I've done 1 acl and it really sucked but to do 5 is nothing less than torture. Words can not comfort this guy.

[@pcorf]

Same here, torn ACL left knee playing basketball at age 39. I felt a pop when landing from a layup (changing direction inwards as I landed) and I tried to play on but the knee had lost stability, it was very innocuous, non contact. That was my last game. The knee is doing fine in day to day life, I did not suffer from any serious pain or swelling. But if I really push it, it starts to feel uncomfortable.

[@daniellebcooper7160]

When he actually played a full season, he won the Liston medal for the best and fairest in the VFL in 2014. Though he would have to be one of the most unlucky players to ever play Australian rules.

I heard that he did a 6th ACL in the amateurs in the last couple of weeks.

@@sk8foryellow168 thats correct at the time I was thinking Adams what are you doing it was a bad kick that didnt make the distance to Stephenson.

Why would you even post that

[@stevemurrell6167]

Why not?

[@Niighht]

The results of poor strength and conditioning coaches

[@daniellebcooper7160]

he did some while at hawthorn, who had some of the best medical staff at the time,,,just look what they did with their aging list.....3 straight flags. so it wasnt the coaches and staff. Just dodgy knees.

[@Niighht]

@undeadkid101 101 yeh makes sense.. so then how do explain that whilst strength and conditioning is getting popular and popular ACL injuries are at an all time high rising in correspondence to the rise in strength training?

@Fuzoy This happened after the 2018 grand final. Mid 2019 I think it happened.
