Robbo Injury?

Featured Replies

Posted

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I was down in Beaumaris today and saw a very brusied and battered Robbo! His nose is covered with plaster taped on to his face and he looked VERY bruised. Have I missed something? Did this happen in last week's game or during training???

Hopefully I have got it all wrong and Russell has an identical twin!

Please tell me it isn't true!

 

Probably had a nose job

[censored], may have been jumped, that's a worry... :(

 
be greatfull its not a knee..

Robbo broke his nose late in the game agianst the Hawks.

He had it operated on on Mon or Tues.

The operation had some minor complications and didn't go as well as planned, but he will be right by round 1.

Brooke - aka Mrs Robertson - was with Robbo today at MALT having lunch. They were discreetly tucked away in the corner and I didn't feel it was appropriate to have a chat given he was obviously in discomfort. I have seen broken noses before but he seriously looks like he has met with Mike Tyson again!

I just hope that he makes a speedy recovery and doesn't have any complications - such a shame if there was to be any lifetime damage to that gorgeous face - OH and the fact that he might miss a few games of footy too.

He is already done that and I dont believe had an operation on it in the offseason. Has it recovered? :unsure:

Hope Robbo makes a speedy recovery from his face injury and there are no major problems :)

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
