Think I might go and have a lie down...the last 24 hours has taken way too much out of me.

Will be hoping for the best for big Maxy...hope we have an update tonight.

 

[Saint Shags]

Not looking good.
Expecting the worst at this stage. This through a connection with the Kings. Not me but I trust the guy.

 

[Premium]

Anyone know the campaigner who illegally put the body on him in the marking contest?
Just curious.

when you have long grasshopper legs they would be pretty easy to twist the same as having a skull which is as thin as a egg shell

 

[Joffaboy]

We are all concerned and trying to diagnose.

Knees pop for different reasons. I torn miniscus cartridge in both knees and each time I heard a crack.
An ACL pops, a PCL pops, torn cartridges pop.

Scans will tell, could be R1 2020 or R 15 2020.

Lets wait.

 

[Kilroy]

True. I didn't see him crying, I was about 5 metres away ...

@Mowman

Can you confirm the tears?

 

[PoppedCorn]

Thanks mikka and joff

Looks structural
Ffs
Just ****ing....sigh

 

[saintkildaman]

In positive news I’m glad to see Paton is playing well, have really high hopes for him.

 

[CaptainRisky]

Nothing in it. Things happen

Yeah , no need for a witch hunt

 

[Human Person]

Can the Kng thread become as legendary as the Freeman thread?

Yes, king leapt high, the Werribee defender challenged with his body, moved him sideways and he came down on his knee.

Footy

With all due respect do you think you'd get news from the Kings right now? Think thats just a guess mate

 

[Mikka84]

Still have your kids hot dogs. I will eat them.

How long do they keep? Turning car around now..

 

[Longmembrey]

Which is normally what happens when you do an ACL. Hurts like hell then you feel fine.

But he didn't seem to be in much pain even when it happened. Got dragged down in a contest, free kick, got up but couldn't put much weight on leg. Walked off to bench, 5 mins later walked to rooms with no limp. Bit of a jar / strain im tipping. Fingers crossed

 

[Joffaboy]

Yeah well signing off, Footy suck sometimes.

Feel very low.

Penrith Panthers general manager Phil Gould has announced Peter Wallace's retirement from the NRL with immediate effect whilst revealing the former NSW Origin half-back has played the last two seasons without an anterior cruciate ligament.
"Peter has been battling with injury for several years and has repeatedly played for the club with injuries that would keep the normal man home in bed," Phil Gould said in a statement released on Tuesday.

"It can now be revealed that Peter has played the last two years with no ACL in his knee after his last knee reconstruction actually failed.​

"I can also remember

Don't care if you believe. Just passing info on.

 

[Strahany]

You can walk normally with a deficient PCL and ACL - a full tear will be painful at first, but will subside. A partial tear will also be initially painful but shouldn’t be painful to walk as they won’t be stressed during normal gait.

He doesn’t seem to be avoiding full knee extension, which would be indicative of a partial tear to MCL/LCL. Shouldn’t be pain if there was a full tear, as there would be no fibres on stretch to cause pain, but he’s walking amazingly well for a full tear.

If there was a whopping meniscus tear, I’d expect him to look a lot more “proppy” in that footage, but no guarantee as you only truly test it with a pivoting movement.

Without seeing the mech, you could jump to conclusions about a cruciate ligament, or potentially a milder meniscus injury. If I was to extrapolate from the information at hand, then you could look at the lengthy duration spent in the rooms as proof either way. You could say that the long duration was due to the weight of the situation (i.e ACL) or could be because diagnosis was a little trickier (i.e mild meniscus).

But I’m just guessing from here.

 

[BrutThough]

I'm slightly disappointed no one from here followed him out of the ground and to the scanning place.
That would get you ultimate ITK status.
