WESTERN BULLDOGS forward and 2017's No.1 pick Isabel Huntington has undergone scans on her reconstructed right knee after injuring it at training on Saturday.

A worst-case scenario – a torn ACL – could result in her third knee reconstruction in just over two years. Huntington has an appointment on Wednesday to receive results of the scans.

Huntington needed a right knee reconstruction after tearing her ACL in round two of the 2018 NAB AFLW season in February, against the Brisbane Lions.

She previously tore her left ACL in an under-18 All Stars match in in Melbourne in September 2016.

Given the short nature of the AFLW season, which runs from February-March, even minor damage to her knee could affect her chances of playing.

Huntington told the club website last week she was hopeful of a round one return and had been given approval to return to full training, having already begun tackling and contact work.

A prodigious talent, the now-19-year-old was selected with the first pick in last year's draft despite not having played a game since the left ACL tear.

At her best, Huntington is strong overhead with elite skills and mobile enough to play as a tall midfielder as well as key forward.

She has played just three games since September 2016, one of which was a practice match.
