Has anyone got any news yet?

Heard Dal Santo on afl feed day his day is finished but will await more details.  

Fingers crossed it’s not too bad. 

Club suspects bone bruising. Sent him immediately for scans.

Nervous wait until we hear the outcome of the scan! Hopefully only a 3-4 week injury and he could be back after the bye.

ABC saying Melbourne are worried it's an ACL...

Doesnt look good at all.

There was no contact... the knee just went.

FML that would be right. We can’t have things go smoothly at Melbourne. Something always has to go wrong. 

Fingers crossed!

It was pretty innocuous. Changing direction at relatively low speed. Hoping for the best. 

Just caught the end of someone on ABC in rooms interview.  Maybe Tommy McD?

Either he or commentator said ACL was mentioned somewhere.  All a bit vague, but IF a full ACL the man involved would surely know it.

Sadly no contact when his knee seemed to buckle, so unlikely to be bone bruising, I reckon.  Sincerely hope that this is just MFCSS in my part!

Please be alright Leeves?

He has had a knee reconstruction on that knee in 2014 so here’s hoping he hasn’t done major damage to it. 

Im not holding my breath. 

TripleM doc said likely ligament damage, but only expects 4-6 weeks off. We shall see.

 

E: Goodwin just said suspected ACL

Felt so relieved reading that.

Then I got to the second line.

For [censored] sake.

Just when we thought we were getting some luck on the injury front too

I am assuming an ACL If it’s not I will be wrapped but has put a sour taste on the win, we need him 

It will be what it is.

Please remind me who is / are playing any similar type of rôle at Casey?  

Keilty? How is he coming along?

Same question for Petty?

It would be a backward step though could become necessary to more Tommy back?

A complete downer on the win if it’s an ACL. Hope we know today. 

Is it possible that it’s a partial knee tear and he returns in 6-8 weeks like Dale Morris?

I rate Petty. However as we saw with Nev today, i reckon it's just another tall defender to plug the hole and free up nev and hibbo for the intercept.

If he needs a MRI then almost certainly not until Monday but the 2 day delay wouldn’t effect recovery from whatever it turns out to be.

Surely footballers get preferential treatment and quicker results? 

Not sure we can wait until Monday. Might die of anxiety.

Hope he returns like Jake Lever, not like Dale Morris ?

Mmmm, these things much like ebola, can affect masses of people in the community...
