Re: All the best to David Rodan

Good luck to him ... again. Hopefully not a full LARS but 8 weeks is a blow for us...seeing as he played well last night after a few quiet weeks.

Daniel Norton just reported on 5AA that David Rodan underwent arthroscopic knee surgery this morning and was cleared of any ACL damage. He will require surgery on a damaged medial cartilage.

terrible luck for the bloke. at least it wasnt ACL

Great news for D Rod and his friends and family.

I know he wants to play footy, but he has to seriously think of his long term health at some point. I hope he has a fall recovery and thats the last problem he has with his knees.

I know when it happened even though we where winning at the time I felt a bit deflated when he went down, considering our players aren't the strongest mentally going around I wonder if this impacted on their psyche.

Was at the game, felt sick when I saw him go off.

Glad to hear it's not too long term.

Thought it was a combination of the umpires and his injury that helped cost you the game.

Glad to hear it isn't an ACL. I had that deep sick feeling in my gut last night after watching it happen.

All the best Rodes in your recovery.

Rodan is one of my favourite Port players, I was devastated to see him injured last night. All the best for his recovery and hope you blokes can notch a few good wins this season, as bleak as it all looks right now.

According to Rucci in this am's 'Tiser Rodan damaged his medial ligament and has had half of it surgically removed. If that is true I doubt he will play again this season.

Rodan grateful season is still alive

He damaged his medial meniscus and had the damaged section trimmed. In the good old days that is the injury referred to as a "torn cartilage".

Rodan himself in the article says it's a 4-6 week injury.

Yeah and what would he know
We all know Port lie and obfuscate- its true- I read it in the Advertiser, and heard it form Robert Walls

Yes, because Rodan knows he had part of his medial meniscus removed not his medial ligament as reported by Rucci. Another case of typical slack journalism.

The Power's injury list for the week beginning Monday 16 May 2011 is as follows;

David Rodan, knee cartilage, Round 7, 3-5 weeks
