Gilbert - hopefully a hyperextension

[SainterK]

Hoping it's more Buddy than Tex...

Such a workhorse.

[Jacks Back]

It definitely looked like a hyper extension. Probably out for 2-3.

I'm hearing ACL.........NNNNOOOOOOOO!

I'm hearing ACL.........NNNNOOOOOOOO!

crikey he had those scans quick

[ShanghaiSaint]

i fraaaken hope not.. they guy was coming back into good form. what a shocker

[Buckets]

I'm hearing ACL.........NNNNOOOOOOOO!

Where did you hear this?

[Munga]

Doc Larkins says could be 6 weeks, but 80% sure that's the season over for Gilbo.
He also said Lenny 3 or 4 weeks.

Where did you hear this?

I'm sure one of those Bozos on the Fox commentary team (might have been Lynch) mentioned that it was a suspected ACL.....if Doc Larkins says 6 weeks though, the doc is always right so I'm more than happy to go with that.

Doc Larkins says could be 6 weeks, but 80% sure that's the season over for Gilbo.
He also said Lenny 3 or 4 weeks.

So the Doc saw Lenny get injured?

[Munga]

Doc said possible calf tear, 3/4 weeks. 80% sure season over for Gilbo, but could be 6 weeks if strained.

So Doc thought that Gilbo had done an ACL?
From the footage on tv didn't look good. Gilbo's body language when in the rooms and on the bench seemed to be one of resignation. God I hope I'm wrong, I think Gilbo has been having a good year so far. More dangerous than the last couple of years.

[8856brother]

Wow. Injuries and corrupt maggots. We're going well.

Oh I forgot 1 - 5. We're on fire.

[SainterK]

14 ACLS so far this year, 13 a year on average...

Hopefully he bucks this trend

[Eastern]

Lets just keep our fingers crossed for Gilbo. We'll know for sure one way or the other by about lunch time tomorrow !!

[skeptic]

tragic if true

haven't rated him for some years but was looking quite good tonight and more recently

[Greg T]

Looked the same as taylor walkers,expect the worse.
He was running into form ,shame

[gringo]

That surface is crap- heaps bounced and the ball stopped dead or moved sideways. Etihad is still like an ice rink with polythene bags placed on top of it.

[Siposstar#2]

Why did he play on anyway? Stupidity caused it

Hopefully that's a joke - his tackling sequence on the wing was outstanding

[saintspremiers]

Why did he play on anyway? Stupidity caused it

Idiot alert.

Kicked to Milne who had front position and got a rare free kick and shot at goal. What could possibly be wrong with that?

[Siposstar#2]

He played on tried to take the guy on after a mark he took 2 mm from a opposition player. His kick was very luck after he rushed it. Not saying he deserved it. And I hope he is okay. I lost my temper very easily also. yelling at the Collingwood supporters laughing an cheering him off in front of me.
But you can't see how playing on next to a defender and then kicking whilst being tackled can result in this?

Very brave!
Very stupid!

[MrCordz]

I thought he was having a massive impact on the game - when he went down it was a turning point. BOG before then for mine - shame.

[Buckets]

Awaiting the scans on both Gilbo and Lenny.

[Buckets]

The more I hear on the radio the more I get worried. Thoughts are ACL....
