Dr Larkins Rooey Knee Update

[andrewg]

Dr Larkin just said on pies swans game Rooey has a small tear in the tendon at the back of his knee (not acl) and said unlikely this week. IMO wouldn't be worried if we didn't see him again this year. Prefer that then full acl tear and out for this and next year for the sake of making up the numbers in the 2012 finals.

Is larkins Rooey's Doctor???

[saintbrat]

that's almost exactly what Scott said post game- they hope to have him bakc before the end of the year..

[saintspremiers]

He's out against Geelong. That's pretty clear it seems. Next game is a bye match vs GWS.

So the question is, will he be OK for the Carlton game IF we are still in finals contention?

Has Doc Larkins EVER had a good prognosis of a saints injury?

I've seen Cats players decapitated and Dr Larkins declare "nothing to much in that and should be right for next week"

In our case - L Hayes stubbs toe..."could be a maniscular fasciatatis that may be see him lose the left leg....we'll know more after scan..." L Hayes plays next week..

Clarky, what is your favorite color?

[SainterK]

Who really knows.

Buddy hyper-extended his knee and played the following week last year.

It's all guesswork.

[Megsie]

Doc Hollywood knows it all. Now he would be ofended if Milney used those famous 2 words to him.....

[vacuous space]

the tendon at the back of his knee

Doc didn't happen to say which tendon did he? I reckon he's just regurgitating what he's already heard.

I'm not sure how they arrive at 1-2 weeks from a partial tendon tear.

Wait until Thursday. I reckon you'll see Roo in the team sheet.

[Sainternist]

Larkins is a media quack. /thread

[saintsRrising]

Let's hope that he does a Buddy and plays next week.

Yep. He may know his biz but unless you've actually examined the patient/injury then you're just guessing.

Trust me on this; I'm a Doctor

Mybe if we could kick onto his tit, instead of making him bend down all the time it might help as well.

With wisdom like this why wouldnt we believe you!

[Jacks Back]

They just need to get some more of that cows blood into him (or whatever it is) and he'll be fine (and probably lactating as well).
