Instagram sensation Deven Robertson signs with the Brisbane ...
Lions player Deven Robertson is set to continue with the Brisbane Lions after turning down a contract with the Eagles.
7news.com.auHere’s the latest I can confirm, based on recent reporting:
- Deven Robertson suffered an ACL rupture while with West Coast Eagles in April 2026, ending his season. The ACL injury was diagnosed after the Gather Round loss to Geelong, and the club indicated he would begin rehabilitation with a view to returning in 2027 [source: AFL and The West Australia reports from April 2026].
- In late 2024/early 2025 reporting, Robertson had been linked with West Coast but ultimately re-signed with Brisbane Lions, staying on a two-year deal through the end of 2025, and turning down a West Coast offer at that time. This context is from AFL coverage around his contract decision in that period [source: AFL.com.au and related coverage from 2023–2024].
Notes:
- If you want, I can search for the very latest updates from specific outlets (e.g., official club statements, AFL media) and provide a concise timeline with dates and key quotes. I can also summarize expected rehab timelines or potential 2027 return scenarios based on standard ACL recovery patterns.
