Forward Jayden Laverde is reportedly on crutches with a syndesmosis injury after having scans today and could miss significant time.
The bombers face a double injury blow unfortunately. Fantasia is potentially looking at 3-4 weeks. Laverde has had scans this morning. And is on crutches and a moonboot. Heโs been hitting the scoreboard, bad luck / timing. More @7NewsMelbourne
