Aaron Nietschke has had the most unfortunate of starts to his AFL career, going down with two ACL injuries in just 12 months. The youngster was first struck down with the knee injury during his first pre-season at the club, before rupturing it once again prior to Christmas. Nietschke was a promising South Australian junior, but hasn't had the opportunity to prove himself at the level. As a show of faith, the Demons have promised to give him another chance in 2021, hoping to see the defender reach full fitness and impact at AFL level.
