Roo - Comments in the 'Robert Harvey Room' yesterday.....
What do a 'couple of handfuls' equate to in terms of weeks?
This is how far from before the finals start that Roo said he would return. Don't want him rushed back. Would rather him take longer to return than to come back and injure himself. However, the comments did piquet my curiousity.......
So what are a 'couple of handfuls'?

I heard that too. I heard they are aiming at round 16 which is 6 weeks before the finals, but if he keeps improving the way he has been, could be earlier. Agree we don't want to rush it though...

THink he is hopeful for somewhere between one and two. - ie 6-10 weeks. That seems to be the accepted thinking at the moment. He looked good yesterday, though looks much better in his footy strip than in that suit.saint75 wrote:That was what I thought. So 10 weeks out from the finals is Round 12?

He spoke very well yesterday. Looked fit. I am looking forward to his return later in the season (preferably much later!).

Actually, I thought he looked quite good in that suit to be honest.....however, that is from a females point of view!saintnick12 wrote:THink he is hopeful for somewhere between one and two. - ie 6-10 weeks.

I'm a female too, and yes he looked good in the suit, but prefer him in the footy outfitsaint75 wrote:Actually, I thought he looked quite good in that suit to be honest.....however, that is from a females point of view!saintnick12 wrote:THink he is hopeful for somewhere between one and two. - ie 6-10 weeks.

So that is 8 weeks away from playing again. As I said in another post Gibson puts himself three weeks ahead in his rehab and Roo has stated he is 2 weeks ahead publicly (but possibly more privately) so hopefuuly if we can get some wins on the board before his return and then not have to expect that he will win us games alone we should be priming up for a tilt at the finals.
