is lightning-quick, an endurance machine and a clean user of the footy who’s best used on a wing or at half-back. The Northern Knights product was called up for his AFL debut against Melbourne at the SCG in Round 4, 2019, and although he wouldn’t feature at the top level again in his first year at the club, he was a stand-out in the NEAFL. McInerney is eyeing more opportunities at senior level in 2020.

Hopefully ok, was odd how quick he subbed out and how innocuous it was, was it bad luck? carrying something? I know nothing about PCLs though.

Considering how good he has been this season I'm really glad they subbed him so quickly. Even if it's minor and precautionary. Especially when you have a fresh Parker sitting there ready to go.

 

[Punts]

I’ve got the midis touch

Of what?

Of what?

The Parker touch

 

[Olian]

The Parker touch

You tipped North to win today.
Thankfully your midis touch is limited…

Yes I did

At least I admit like always when I’m wrong

That’s fine pull me up

Should admit about Parker but won’t

 

[The King!]

google tells me 3-4 weeks?

Didnt Goodes play with a PCL in 04?

 

[caesar88]

Spewing about this injury. The worry isn't just how long he's out but also what shape he's in if and when he returns. If he's right to play but not able to train properly it will show in his performances. He's one of our better players IMO so we need him fit and firing in finals.

 

[The King!]

Should be pushing for the AA squad imo, it is a massive loss

Yes..did it in the ruck.
Also that was what he did in 2012 GF wasn't it?

 

[zyzzbruh]

Didn't watch the game today so didn't get much of a look at what happened, but desperately hoping it's not anything 5+ weeks. Back in a game before finals would be ok.

One of those innocuous things which are usually the worst sadly.

 

[JZ_Skitzo]

You can still run etc with pcl injury. No lateral movement, just straight lines though.

Grundy played out a game in 2022 with a PCL injury and missed 10-12 weeks thats why im worried even with all these positive signs

 

[Bonz]

PCL injury... How long are they? Usually a while I think...

Good thing Parker and Mills are back.

Really depends on grade of the strain.

I tore my PCL last year, whilst I was back competing 5 weeks later it wasn't 100% right for a good 4-5 months (Definitely made worse as I trained and competed through it (my sport has very very limited lateral movement)).

You regain movement and sometimes stability quickly but you can lose power/ flexion, tonne of it depends on pain tolerance as well.

 

[Dubai Quacker]

PCLs can be anything …. a few weeks through to the best part of a full year.

Fingers crossed.

One thing we do know - the Swans injury list published on Wednesday will bear no resemblance to the true length of time on the sidelines.

 

[The King!]

Why isn't a reporter at the hospital

 

[Borgan]

Good sign he wasn’t put into a knee brace and that he was walking comfortably post game.

The mechanism seemed to be when he hit the ground with a flexed knee - a classic PCL mechanism. He then tried to stand and walk and you could see his knee give way

 

[JackHiscoxWasFast]

Why isn't a reporter at the hospital

Because we are swans fans and don’t lash out violently when our star player is robbed of a Brownlow.

 

[Punts]

He is a gun

Goodes also had one in the 2012 GF?

 

[Punts]

Any update?

Cross fingers not a acl

I read that as he will be listed as 2 weeks indefinitely, sounds right
