AFL legend Tony Modra, 57, remains in hospital after a serious truck crash south of Adelaide on Thursday. Multiple outlets report that his condition is critical but stable, with “grave fears” noted in at least one report. The crash happened near Victor Harbor, and Modra is said to have struck a fallen tree. He is airlifted to Flinders Medical Centre, according to one source, where doctors assess his injuries and response to treatment.
Several reports cite information provided by Modra’s family, including details of the circumstances of the incident and his ordeal afterward. Other coverage focuses on reactions from the wider football and local community, which has rallied behind Modra following the crash. While outlets describe his survival as uncertain at points and emphasize the seriousness of the accident, they generally agree on his current status as critical but stable and that further details about the full extent of his injuries and recovery timeline are not yet clear.
