spirit of norm smith 16,679 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 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. Quote
praha 11,267 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 Club suspects bone bruising. Sent him immediately for scans. Quote

DistrACTION Jackson 10,728 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 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. Quote
Mickey 4,777 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 ABC saying Melbourne are worried it's an ACL... Quote
What 18,810 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 Doesnt look good at all. There was no contact... the knee just went. Quote

Bonkers 994 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 It was pretty innocuous. Changing direction at relatively low speed. Hoping for the best. Quote
monoccular 17,760 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 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. Quote

DemonOX 8,857 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 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. Quote
MurDoc516 1,529 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) TripleM doc said likely ligament damage, but only expects 4-6 weeks off. We shall see. E: Goodwin just said suspected ACL Edited June 2, 2018 by MurDoc516 Quote
R.I.P. Troy 185 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 Hmmm...the vision doesn't look good at all Quote

DemonLad5 1,642 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 Just when we thought we were getting some luck on the injury front too Quote
brendan 3,458 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 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 Quote
monoccular 17,760 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 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? 1 Quote
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 A complete downer on the win if it’s an ACL. Hope we know today. Quote
DemonLad5 1,642 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 Is it possible that it’s a partial knee tear and he returns in 6-8 weeks like Dale Morris? Quote

Keilty? How is he coming along? Same question for Petty? It would be a backward step though could become necessary to more Tommy back? 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. Edited June 2, 2018 by MurDoc516 Quote
monoccular 17,760 Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 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. Quote

Surely footballers get preferential treatment and quicker results? Not sure we can wait until Monday. Might die of anxiety. 1 Quote
