West Coast Eagles superstar Ella Roberts is facing a nervous wait after her final game of the season ended prematurely following a knee injury.
The star on-baller went down in a heap less than four minutes into their final game of the AFLW season against Hawthorn at Sullivan Logistics Stadium.
Roberts attempt to tackle Jasmine Fleming, when a rogue bounce of the football forced a change of direction, with the West Coast star grabbing her right knee mid-air.
The midfield struggled to get up from the floor without assistance and was eventually helped from the ground by a pair of trainers.
She was not spotted on the ground during the quarter-time break.
The two-time All Australian and dual club champion had the knee in question taped during the game and strapped at training this week.
“She was a little bit sore out of the last game but was nothing major and nothing we’re concerned about,” coach Daisy Pearce had said mid-week.
West Coast were quick to rule their young star out of the rest of the game, while her Eagles teammates struggled to adapt in the immediate aftermath, as the Hawks led by 36 at half-time.
