Seems to be that "medical experts" (includng Chis Bradshaw the Cat's Doctor) based purely on observation favour about 8 weeks due to it being high. But not longer like Lloyd as it there was not as much flexure in it.

yeah heard that, look if it's 8 weeks I will be happy. According to the geelong doctor it looked similar to the rooke injury, he was back in 7 weeks and has played at a high level ever since.saintsRrising wrote:Seems to be that "medical experts" favour about 8 weeks due to it being high.

My biggest concern is how this effects his runnings and spring

As you probably hear Bradshaw thought that this would not be a problem.Solar wrote: My biggest concern is how this effects his runnigns and spring

Given that our injury list had TBC next to every player I doubt we'll know how many weeks Roo will miss until he plays again. After all, how many people knew that Fisher would play this time last week? I know I thought he was still a couple of weeks away.

kosis moment of devastation back in 2005 came after Roo was ruled out with his collar bone ... maybe Kosi needs that pressure on him thats its either he does it all or it doesnt get done mentality ??danners wrote:i honestly think kosi can be just as dangerous as riewoldt if he is the lone man up forward.
would much prefer riewoldt with his hammy's intact, but we can do this without him on the field aswell

yeh and i think if he can come back in and kick a few goals then the confidence will go up and he will be thinking 'hey im the main guy up here now so i need to step up'st_Trav_ofWA wrote:kosis moment of devastation back in 2005 came after Roo was ruled out with his collar bone ... maybe Kosi needs that pressure on him thats its either he does it all or it doesnt get done mentality ??danners wrote:i honestly think kosi can be just as dangerous as riewoldt if he is the lone man up forward.

nah. as one of the usual sooks, i don't care what they tell us about riewoldt. he's a star and crucial to our side, so keep it from other clubs as much as you possibly can, though i don't think there'll be very much secrecy actually sustainable.bigred wrote:I'm sure we will have the usual sooks bleating about what they are entitled to when the injury list is published each week.
i sook about not being told the true state of winmar or simpkin or dempster. they're a different class of player and there's no point lying about them. as a supporter i want to know, and rival clubs just don't care, so why not publicise it?

its all part of the information vault ... if you let some out you cant control what can get out ... yet if you let nothing out then you dont have that problem ....... lots of little leaks lead to big cracks no leaks leadss to no cracksbergholt wrote:nah. as one of the usual sooks, i don't care what they tell us about riewoldt. he's a star and crucial to our side, so keep it from other clubs as much as you possibly can, though i don't think there'll be very much secrecy actually sustainable.bigred wrote:I'm sure we will have the usual sooks bleating about what they are entitled to when the injury list is published each week.

Keeping quiet about injuries to our junior players who are unlikely to have any impact this year or even next year is either a) disrespectful to the player concerned or b) laziness from the club.
Personally I don't like either option.
Well, I'm not one of the usual sooks but want to know exactly how long Roo will be out.
Absolutely crucial to our tilt tis season.

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)
