How often does a suspected ACL turn into better news?

 

[pupstar]

I ran off the ground with my last one

Yep dead right they are so different i could put no pressure what so ever on mine stretcher job. They are all so different.

How often does a suspected ACL turn into better news?

Not often but not unheard of.

With swelling and soreness, a suspected ACL could end up being an MCL/PCL sprain.

It's not likely...

Sometimes with those extensions like what Ridley did today. The ones where they go sideways always seem to be ‘hinted’ at.

Fingers crossed, but optimism eludes me.

Players reaction a giveaway of what the doc has told them.

Although Gawn looked like he did his and it was not.

Okay….we’re seriously fr==++%. cursed….Who the heck walked under ladders, broke mirrors, swung a black cat by its tail, stole the last biscuit from the barrel…..
Just once ….just once can our recruits / players have some luck.

Fingers and everything else crossed for griff…….

You can run with an ACL. That tells us nothing unfortunately.

His knee didn’t give way, a bloke that size on a knee with no acl, his knee would give way.

Im searching for optimism and hope. Until scans its massive speculative. Even the injury replay could suggest many different injuries

 

[Psicosis]

They think it’s an ACL. Scans hopefully prove it wrong. Brace for 2024 without Logue and McKay

Unfortunately for plenty of blokes it doesn't give way til they do a pivot-shift movement. It can give a bit of false hope when they jog off without it giving way. The hamstring often tightens up and stops the shin shifting out of place until the load gets too high.

Watching the footage sadly the giveaway for me is the way he grabbed the front of his shin (from the looks of it) reflexively.

Hoping for a miracle.

Jeez didn't realise it was that serious, what a disaster

I was sitting in the upper deck, in line with Griff's incident.
It didn't look much at the time, but the way ( I think it was Corr) reacted straight afterwards made me think it was something significant.

And looking at the footage I think it's a cut and dried ACL sadly. Can only hope for a miracle with the scan

 

[DuckYeah]

Ahhhh for ****s sake!!! **** us harder next time, buy us a drink at least before we get fuvked

 

[Roostorm]

Not darn well looking good at all. #&$@%!
every &$$#@ time…..
but hey good to see the Duncan scoop is alive and well……
this season can’t come to an end quick enough……..

 

[Sphynx]

The campaigner ran off the ground. Its not an ACL.

I played a pre-season carnival and played a game immediately after doing mine.

 

[Ashley B]

You can still walk if you do an acl I have been told . I think once it cools down it will be sore I also don’t think you can move sideways though. Hope the log is ok

Depends on what pain he feels when manoeuvring the leg and what the MRI says.

Hoping it's just minor but it didn't look good.

Nothing to do with pain, that's meniscus. ACL physical test they draw the shin forward and back (Lachmann test). If it moves and doesn't have a firm end point, it's gone. If that test shows you've done one, and they always do that test even if you have an MRI, you've done one.

fingers-crossed... just cannot catch a break

We all thought he rolled his ankle.
Corr went to help him off originally then a trainer stepped in for a few seconds and then he walked off unassisted.
He went straight down into the rooms but there was no icing or anything when he came back out at quarter time.
Hoping it’s okay with the scan tomorrow but our doctor knows her shit and if acl is rumored then I’d say it is

Chom, once you are fit son you are straight to CHB..

Correct, Lachmann’s anterior draw test puts pressure on the tibial insertion of the ACL. If it is lax, then it’s torn. Us mere mortals don’t need one, but pro sportsmen and sportswomen need it for stability in flexion.

Has he played there before at any level?
