Alex Fasolo is set to miss the start of the 2019 H&A season after fracturing his arm, the Blues are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the injury.
Injury Update: Matthew Kreuzer
Carlton released a statement late on Sunday night:
Carlton Football Club is aware of an incident that occurred on Saturday night involving forward Alex Fasolo in which he sustained a fractured radius to his left arm.
Fasolo immediately notified the Club at the time of his injury and was taken to the Alfred hospital. He then underwent surgery at the Epworth hospital on Sunday evening and his recovery is expected to be between 6 – 8 weeks.
The Club is investigating the circumstances of the incident and will be in a position to provide further comment once more details have been ascertained.
Fasolo joined the Blues in the off-season as a Free Agent, he kicked 133 Goals from 101 games at Collingwood.
AFL FANTASY TAKE
Fasolo was a moderate target at a low salary to begin the 2019 H&A season, the injury is likely to rule him out playing in Round 1 therefore ownership will be very low when he eventually plays his first game for the Blues.

Another spot in the Carlton team should be available at Round 1, Tom Bugg may have an increased opportunity & a Sam Walsh debut is almost a certainty.
