Tune into SUNS TV to hear from Nathan Bock

Gold Coast SUNS Vice Captain Nathan Bock will play a key role for the Gold Coast SUNS this season despite being sidelined with a broken leg.

Bock underwent lengthy surgery immediately after a collision left him with a badly broken tibia as he attempted to take a mark early in the Fremantle match.

The experienced defender is already looking forward to commencing pre-season training and is determined to play a lead role as the GC SUNS strive for success on field in 2013, however the former All Australian representative will be kept busy as he recuperates, with Coach Guy McKenna planning to use him in a coaching and mentoring capacity.
