Elliot Yeo's Injury and Its Impact on the West Coast Eagles Season

Elliot Yeo a key player for the West Coast Eagles, faces another injury setback ahead of the AFL season. He sustained a syndesmosis injury in his right ankle and medial collateral ligament (MCL) damage in his right knee during match simulations. The MCL stabilizes the knee joint, and its injury can cause instability and discomfort, affecting agility. Syndesmosis injuries, or high ankle sprains, occur when the tibia and fibula separate, leading to pain and restricted mobility. Yeo’s injuries raise concerns for both him and the team as they prepare for the season, impacting his recovery and playing prospects.
