Fair dinkum..

We largely won because we were the fitter team that ran out the game strongly.

Fitness also saw great running and aloways getting numbers at the contest.

The era you long for would have seen the teen tired and overun, players cramping up with the players all getting rub-downs at 3 quarter time.
Umm I think he may have been just a tad sarcastic there SRS

If they thought he'd tore it off the bone I don't think RL would have looked that happy after the game...he' of been pleased with the win, but IMO he wouldn't of been able to conceal his disappointment as he'd of know our season would have been all but gone.

The medical staff would have a fair idea, and SOS tore his off the bone years ago...IMO had they thought it was off the bone he would of been off to hospital asap.
Whether it's off the bone or not, he wouldn't be rushed to hospital to have it operated on right there and then.

The only reason you would have something operated on immediately is if the person is immense pain, which Roo wasn't as he was sitting on the bench.

And just because SOS tore his off the bone doesn't mean he would know how to diagnose it.

The chance of a tear off the bone is slim, but it's a possibility. I'm pretty sure only a scan can determine whether the hamstring has been torn off the bone. Let's not get our hopes up until we receive confirmation.
