Are we sure it's a hammy or do we now view everything like this as a possible positive test?

Given his recent history and the fact he was subbed off with it last week I reckon we can believe this one.

Or he's had a long term raging coke problem and he had an itch that needed scratching mid game last week.

Doedee another acl.

Refer Post #239 - I guess now confirmed?

Very sad
Coffield and him both risky picks. Clubs might be mode reluctant to pick up players with injury histories now.

Doedee another acl.

It's a partial team of his ACL. I recall Gia played on with a partial tear of his ACL without requiring another full reconstruction - I wonder if Doedee will be able to do the same and not have to go through another full reconstruction?

Interesting - Sven Botman the Newcastle centre back tried the same thing. Now they've just sent him off for surgery after playing for a couple of months and he will be out for nearly a year.

It depends on how big the partial tear is - if you can put the requisite strength work into your quad and VMO muscle (the ball muscle just above the knee), sometimes full reconstructive surgery can be avoided.

I would recommend Doedee speaks to his knee surgeon and club doctor first rather than take the word of someone who has a tertiary qualification in marketing.

Wizard out for a month

Tom Lynch also and Balta at least 5 plus

Scans have confirmed that Richmond midfielder Tim Taranto suffered a fractured radius at training today.

The injury occurred late in the Club’s main training session, after an innocuous mishap.

Taranto will have surgery today to repair his wrist and is expected to miss an extended period.
