I wouldn't take that to the Bank if I were you.citywest wrote:I wish no ill on Rooey but if he doesn't play again St Kilda will be better for it.
HE WILL NOT BE AROUND FOR OUR NEXT FLAG TILT SO IT'S BETTER WE GET USED TO PLAYING WITHOUT HIM SOONER RATHER THAN LATER!
The same goes for Joey, Dempster and Gilbert.

Re: Roo's knee. Is this the end?
Hopefully Nick will be OK.
Still concerned a little, as if you hear a click or pop its generally unmistakable and you'll have the worse pain for 3 to 5 minutes, followed by feeling fine, and later swelling.
I hope the scans are correct, as my brother actually had two scans done over different years, and both showed it was fine, but when they actually went inside to take a look, it wasn't the case at all![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
Although in Nicks case it looks like a hyper extension of the knee, so I'll learn towards the positive side I think, we'll find out over the coming weeks I guess.
