Do you know something or just playing devil's advocate?

The news is getting worst by the minute! Season ending!!!
This is ****en bullshit. Sick to ****en death of it.
Well im not sure if they showed the incident or not, i only caught the end of the story and they showed him being stretchered off. They replay this bulletin at 1, so it should be on again at 1:30-1:40. Hopefully he only misses the 3 months.

Lets just hope that it is ONLY this season..and hope it is not as bad as Brown's break becuase if it is and I hate saying this..but that could be his career gone not just his season. Best of luck to the kid and I trust the EFC medical staff.

True, although the news coming though is sort of confirming your fears. What I do hope is that if it is season ending (likely) that he is not rushed back like Brown was. Give him all the time, whether that be 12 or 18 months

I wouldnt be too worried about a Nathan Brown type injury at this stage as i have only heard one reporter suggest he may have a broken leg.

Looked pretty ordinary watching it live. I had the binocs on him and the foot was not pointing in the correct direction.
It will be a serious one.

I rather fear the worst..that way I can be "surprised"..but I sure as heck and hoping that it is ONLY a broken ankle or a broken leg. But yes you are right Brown's injury was ugly and unlikely to happen again.

In your opinion would you guess it was a leg or an ankle or both? You are probably the best person on here to have an opinion?

If it's a broken ankle he probably will only be out till round 6 or 7. Which isn't too bad
agree. Absolutely horrible for woosha.
It's Quinn's fault.
Sack him.
He'll be out a lot longer than that.

This is getting ridiculous.
Pretty much my reaction when I heard the news.
Well thats a whole lot better then career ending.
Not good news at all.
I guess it means more opportunities for the likes of Hocking and Skipworth.
We can't afford Mcveigh or Watson to go down now and Lonergan will have to shoulder a lot more responsibility.

My heart dropped when I heard this.
A gloomy incident indeed, but full credit to the Igknighter for the Skipworth contingency.
