Australian football legend Tony Modra survives a serious trucking accident south of Adelaide and undergoes ongoing medical treatment. Multiple outlets report that Modra, 57, is taken to Flinders Medical Centre after the crash near Victor Harbor, with news services describing him being airlifted to hospital. Early reports say he is in critical condition, with some coverage noting “grave fears” while medical staff assess the extent of his injuries.

One report describes the incident involving Modra’s truck colliding with a fallen tree. Several articles also note community support for Modra, including public expressions of support from the football community.
