What we really need is the Collingwood Football Club doctor.

Their blokes break legs and they're back in the team 13 days later. Our blokes break a leg and they're in moonboots for three months!

He broke a non weight bearing bone, it's not that bad to do so, but I actually do not think he will play or be at 100% got the GF I reckon he would be pretty right.

not so miraculous.. I broke the same bone many years ago skiing...(well hell I am a Melbourne supporter :lol: ). I didnt have access to the wonder medicine of now ..nor was it plated.. I was jogging back on it in 3 weeks (heavily strapped) and running in 5.. Yep it hurt a bit .. As many state its non weight bearing.... just dont knock it when broekn though... smarts a bit. .

I suspect it wasnt a clean break for Pendles and Im not surprised that much.. .well a little..2 weeks at elite level.. fair effort...i would have thought 3 to be back at training.

Now whats the bet the first tackle he gets is a good whack to that leg :rolleyes:

Hutchy is absolutely certain he will play. We will see.

He would also have a hell of a lot of plates, rods and pins holding his leg together (making it stronger than if it wasn't broken).

And may ruin his future- re Egan at Geelong

Maybe some of those players were continuing to play with stress fractures untill it was deemed time to go to the surgeon.

FYI I once broke my fibula and walked around on it for 2 weeks before finding out it was broken.

Wasn't in any pain, just could feel the bones grinding a bit so I got it checked out again (the first doctor only looked at my ankle)

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
