“Given the timing of the injury, much of Marc’s recovery will take place during the upcoming Christmas break.”

“We then expect him to begin integrating back into training in January, having already given himself a great foundation to build into next year, thanks to the significant work he has already put in over the off-season and the first part of pre-season.” Carlton GM of Football Chris Davies.
