Essendon ruck Nick Bryan will miss the rest of the 2025 season with a ruptured ACL.
"This is obviously a disappointing setback for Nick, who'd been in good form for us," Essendon general manager of AFL Daniel McPherson said.
"While it's frustrating for him given how hard he's worked to earn consistent opportunities at senior level, we have no doubt that Nick will attack his rehab just as strongly and put himself in a great position to return in good shape next season."
