Gold Coast GM of Football Performance Wayne Campbell provided an update today.
“Unfortunately Ben’s ruptured his ACL in his right knee in a pretty simple marking contest that he’d been in many times before,”
“Ben’s going well, whenever someone goes down with an ACL it’s shattering for a start.
“He’s got a really strong family and we’ve got some really good support around him from the footy club, it’s not ideal by any stretch but we know Ben’s strength of character will see him attack the challenge in a positive manner.” Campbell said.
King averaged 8.2 Disposals, 4.1 Marks, 0.8 Tackles & 2.1 Goals from 22 games in 2021.
