Christian Petracca - Season Ending Knee Injury

Featured Replies

What the title said. Came down in a bit of agony this morning but managed to walk off bit propy..

 

Uh oh, doesn't sound good for the young fella, hopefully not as bad as I am fearing.

 

Just a precaution i reckon, they are being very smart with injuries these days.


Gives me a sick feeling in the guts. Fingers crossed. Being able to walk off means nothing. In some cases you would rather a lot of pain and not able to walk as it can just be a tare, where as a rupture is generally pain free after a couple of minutes

Yep going down in agony and then walking off doesn't sound good, going from my personal experience with knee reconstructions.

Sounds very acl like to me :( fingers crossed I am wrong

 

Posterior can walk off too, plus a bunch of other jarring injuries, lets not throw around ACL just yet.

Season ending for sure.
Its the MFC way.


Just got home from training and can confirm the injury. Petracca knee buckled on landing from a marking contest. Was down for quite a few minutes in obvious pain. Some players came up to him with a consoling pat. He managed to limp to the boundary line where he was attended to. Did some short walks along the boundary with a limp, then proceeded to AAMI Park with a trainer/doctor with a more noticeable limp.

Petracca's knee and thigh were bandaged when I arrived at training, and he was on the sidelines. I was surprised when he got involved in all the training drills.

If you see a report from Mark Stevens regarding Petracca's injury, the diagnosis came from yours truly. He arrived with a cameraman just as Petracca was being attended to. He came up to me to ask what happened. We both agreed that it's too early to tell.

Yep, I did my ACL and then walked off. Not saying that is it though...


So one report of him hurting his knee during training and some on here, who haven't even seen it, have written him off for the year with an ACL.

Gee these last few years have done things to us.

Not to say that I have panicked but I just did an ACL hearing about his ACL.

Did my mcl and walked off too, but the instability was obvious. I can't believe Petracca would've exhibited those symptoms and the doctor told him to try a few turns..

Low grade maybe?

Watch the eyes, could have been an existing injury, his has been bandaged for a few sessions

No it wasn't will put a report in the training thread, it happened right in front of me


I'm still scarred by the two times Hogan jarred his knee.

Fingers crossed to Christian...

See my report on the injury in the training thread, mods can we close this thread can be covered inn the training thread, and it was his left knee not the right which he has supported with strapping

You are such a silly sod sometimes Saty. I like how you completely write off someone else's report on the injury, which if history is anything to go by is going to be the more accurate report, and ask mods to close the thread so we can all trot over and read yours. You just love yourself a bit, don't you big fella?
