Tony Modra’s Recovery Journey

AFL legend Tony Modra is on the mend after a harrowing accident where a tree branch smashed through his truck’s windshield, leaving him with severe facial injuries. Though initially in critical condition, Modra is now out of the worst of it, having undergone multiple surgeries and still battling pain.
