Injury Buddy Hell! everything to do with Buddy's injury in here please.

[Milestone]

Would happily put this season on the backburner if it meant he'd by right come Round 1 2012.

If not, Fev would have to be a real chance given the fact that Franklin and Roughead out with LTI.

 

[PlayHard]

Heart goes out to Menzel too, 19, playing a great game in his first final and now faces a year on the sidelines

Yep, devastating for the young bloke.

 

[seysearles]

When I did my ACL the doc looked at my knee, put his hands on it, yanked the knee and said ACL

Took 5 seconds and about $200 bucks

Glad to hear that. I feel that at worst its a partial tear. This season is over but fingers crossed he should get a fullish pre-season. From what I understand Roughie will struggle with a pre-season in 2012 also. Bad bad bad start! Why do we get so many injuries?

 

[grizzlym]

Just a reminder to those who seek to troll: I can assure you that my fellow mods and myself will have no tolerance for any trolls around Franklin's injury. No matter how thinly veiled. I have already handed out 2 permas and three reds tonight to various low lifes. Don't test me, my fellow mods or any Hawthorn poster on this board out. It 'aint going to end well.

 

[23cmonShane!]

Did my ACL. Had 2 Docs pull on it including Orthopeaedic surgeon, both doubting ACL .... Arthroscope showed ACL completely shredded!

 

[SSSSSS]

I think this opens the door a bit for Fev if it's as serious as it is hinted.

Good luck Buddy, hope it aint as bad as they say it is. If so I hope you and Roughy can enjoy a few beers together with your legs up

^Also f**k you footy gods.

 

[GhostofPP]

it reminded me of the Kruezer incident,

hopefully not

Yeh same with mine. Wouldnt assume its an easy pick. And docs will obviously want to get it right before announcing anything.

Most Hawk supporters would hate any Geelong supporter popping up in their threads right about now but am seriously sorry that he went down tonight. We lost a very exciting player as well and both teams are in the same boat here. Hope it's not as serious as it looked and all the best he's a champion forward

 

[Badesumofu]

Have any of you seen "In the Thick of It"? Brittish political comedy. I wish I could swear like Malcolm in that show does, about this.

Have regresed one stage in the so-called 5 stages of greif, from bargaining to anger. I now think the Kubler-Ross model is a bunch of fucjing bullshit

 

[Hodginator]

I was sitting just to the left of the bench when he was coming off and couldn't believe what I was hearing from the Geelong fans around me. It was a disgrace. Very poor form. And it wasn't one or two of them.

 

[zapproh]

could be worse ............. hope he recovers for next season

 

[Beandip]

could be worse ............. hope he recovers for next season

Well, yeah.... I suppose he could have died.... but it's still bloody bad

 

[seysearles]

I'd be very surprised if it's an ACL...most likely its a PCL, meaning a very good outcome for a full pre-season and no functional deficit. Bring on 2012!

I'll take your word on it because it benefits me to do so

Nah, welcome here if you come with good intent which you have.

 

[grizzlym]

Nah, welcome here if you come with good intent which you have.

That's it.

 

[Tulip]

I'll never claim to be a huge Hawks follower, but to see a modern champion go down like that shouldn't be good in anyone's eyes.

Hopefully by some virtue there was shock involved and he can do a Pendlebury '09 and get back soon.

Otherwise, hoping to see him back in 2012.

Don't be too hard on yourselves for the loss tonight, the KPP injuries you have endured this year have been ridiculous

 

[hawksfan71]

Nice of all the other teams to come in and wish him well, he is a star, no matter what anyone says and the game is worser if he is not playing. I hope he gets playing next year.

 

[Buddy and Roughy]

its amazing the affect one injury can have on the team, predictions, finals hopes and most importantly; the morale of supporters

i barely care about the rest of season 2011 just totally concerned about the injury

 

[Bosk]

Shame the Umpires and MRP don't share that point of view isnt it?

 

[cyril33]

praying that it's not too serious, but can help but feel that he might have done it fully.
cannot believe the luck we've had this year with injuries...
roughead, franklin, gilham, stratton.... wtf that is our spine
if buddy has stuffed the knee fully and misses all of next year i reckon we would be stupid not to have a look at fev. I am all for developing lisle and maybe shoenmakers as key forwards but to be honest, we are not going to win a premiership next year without a dominant key forward.
probably the most shattered i have ever been after a loss...

Yep. I really only hope for him to be okay...and i would sacrifice the rest of the year for him to be fit.

 

[Kickett Punches Read]

guys am just so sorry that your champion forward went down. i sincerely hope he is ok. all the best for the rest of your season

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Devastated when it happened, praying he's ok...both for you guys and the AFL loving public in general, no better player to watch.

Good luck Buddy, both for diagnosis and recovery.

 

[Hodges]

So devo. So unbelivably devo. God I hope its not an ACL, we have lost too many key players to season injuries lately...
