Hawthorn knee victims set to continue their rehab in Europe HAWTHORN knee victims Matthew Suckling and Alex Woodward will continue their rehabilitation in Europe over the next month. The pair are planning to attend one of the world's biggest sporting contests, the Champions League soccer final at London's Wembley Stadium on May 25, as part of the trip. The clash between German teams Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund is expected to draw a capacity crowd of 90,000 and a global television audience of about 300 million viewers. The two Hawks may also attend the French Open tennis tournament and pay a visit to Australian international basketball star Joe Ingles in Barcelona. The three-week mid-season break is designed to help mentally refresh the injured pair and further their sporting education as they continue the gruelling comeback from torn anterior cruciate ligaments. It is understood they will continue to use first-class sporting facilities abroad to help maintain pace with their rehabilitation. Fifteen AFL players have suffered season-ending knee injuries so far this year, including two more at the weekend, Richmond forward Chris Knights and Fremantle ruckman Jonathon Griffin. Suckling, 24, is a key part of the Hawks defence and is a big European soccer fan.
