Jimmy Bartel and Sam McClure react to Nat Fyfe’s massive injury setback

Nat Fyfe says his troublesome shoulder has been “blown to pieces” by injury, with the Fremantle champion facing a long road to recovery.

The two-time Brownlow medallist says he hasn’t run in four months.

He said he was unable to sweat, let alone train, as part of his recovery.

“It’s pretty grim,” he said.

“I’ve got a fair bit of work to do.”

Jimmy Bartel and Sam McClure discussed the news on 3AW, with both saying they’ll be surprised if Fyfe is ready to go come Round 1 next season.
