Top draft prospect Max King has been stretchered off from a school game with a knee injury, Damian Barrett says.
LISTEN TO DAMO:
King, who is touted to be as high as a top three selection in the upcoming draft, collided with the behind post in a game for his school side Haileybury on Saturday morning.
The tall forward, who posted eight goals in a game earlier this month, was stretchered off the field.
There have been fears the injury could be serious, but Barrett says the hope is it's minor.
"We were talking about a kid from Haileybury, Max King...who has contacted the behind post in a game for Haileybury today," he said on Triple M.
"The hope is, as BT said, it's just a contact injury and nothing more than that."
