Rowell avoids surgery, but set for lengthy stint on sidelines – AFL
Gold Coast star Matt Rowell is eyeing a return this season after dodging surgery on his injured left knee
MATT Rowell is likely to miss half the season after scans confirmed the young Gold Coast star has suffered damage to the posterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
Rowell was taken off in the opening term of Sunday’s 25-point loss to West Coast after falling awkwardly in a tackle.
