The Bulldogs are “fearing the worst” after star forward Sam Darcy was subbed out with a knee injury after landing awkwardly in the Bulldogs’ Easter Sunday clash against St Kilda.

The Bulldogs’ general manager of football Matthew Egan told Channel Seven the worst prognosis would be a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, which would almost certainly rule Darcy out for the rest of the 2025 season.
