#26. Carlisle has been blueing with him since

Leadership

 

[George]

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

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.

Anything you can gather from the above post, Strahany ?

 

[triggering bro]

According to SS he can walk in a straight line but any lateral movement & his knee collapses which is consistent with an ACL.

Thoughts Strahany ?

When did he make lateral movements after coming from the ground?

 

[BrutThough]

Did he leave the ground on crutches?

 

[Premium]

The guy on the radio is saying Hannebery doesn't look to be running out the game - if this is true he will not be playing next week.
But once again how good is his medical advice.

I’m thinking it was when the docs were testing it? The guy that posted it is the admin of SS & I can say 100% that he is very much itk.

Could also indicate a big MCL/LCL tear, or a painful meniscus (less likely).

But not a good sign, admittedly

 

[El HOSS]

Havent seen someone do an ACL and walk as well as he was around the boundary before, there's still a slight glimmer of hope

I think Lenny did his ACL against someone and played the game out from memory....to be fair...that was Lenny

 

[PoppedCorn]

Who is admin over there now?

 

[austinnn]

Anyone care to summarise Hannerbury's on-field work today?

 

[70s sainter]

Turned radio off
Can’t listen to that blokes voice anymore esp when I couldn’t give a rats about the game .
Just want good news on king please please

 

[CaptainRisky]

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

Lets just hope it doesnt get to that

Going by their post I'm thinking (HoPiNg) that they were just commenting broadly about ACLs, not so much Max specifically.

 

[StPiper]

Jumping ahead a bit, but how many players have returned successfully long term after 2 ACLs?

 

[Premium]

Carlisle was only meant to play half a game and he still playing - get him in the team

 

[PoppedCorn]

That Simon bloke

Lol...still
Cheers

That would be nice! But not good when his next comment is that it doesn’t sound good

Max Gawn doing good things

That’s the way I’d interpret it.

Looks like its a battle of ITK's as to who gets the scoop first

Cheers. That makes me feel a bit better. Had no idea both those guys had done theirs twice.

Whats SS? the Schutzstaffel?
