Injuries thread 2011 *may contain spoilers*

[Matt23]

Just out of todays game:
Beau Henry -Ankle ligaments/fracture
Ben Rogers - Shoulder
Shannen McDonnel - Concussion
Cameron Ciraldo - Shoulder

 

[Frederick]

Oh ffs

 

[DragonPunk]

Zeb Taia was limping pretty heavily too.

 

[otori]

At least only Henry is really valuable. Sick of losing our star players while guys like Ciraldo and McDonnell play on. Hopefully well get some good movements in our team for next round.

 

[FootyLegend]

tolar looks to be limping a bit aswell .
nd richie, got heavily knocked out

 

[macavity]

Henry is a _HUGE_ loss.

Either Gids to 6 and Wes to FB, or Tyrone Roberts to 6.

 

[General Knight]

It's the Knights, whats new? Same s*** every year really.

 

[Jobdog]

Hopefully Henry's is only ankle ligaments, but something tells me it's probably a fracture ...

 

[perverse]

Henry was in a fair bit of pain. it didn't look good. we can probably expect to miss him for a few months. what an absolute shame. Rogers, Henry, Costigan probably on the long term injury list now. i don't know how long a torn pec takes to heal, but i image Ciraldo will be out for a little while too... and i don't wish ill-will on the bloke but we're not going to miss him. Richie and probably McDonnell should miss a week with their concussions too, probably.

I'm pretty sure that some players miss up to 6 months with a torn pec muscle. However the fact that he played on probably indicates that it will be less than that.

What Faoso did straight after he got knocked out was stirring. Made me proud to be from Newy

they can't possibly consider tyrone roberts can they ? coming up against the defending premiers - if gids is right to go then surely they have to play him there and put wes at fullback - that is if doogs comes back

 

[Mad Goanna]

foo (finger)
likiliki (medial)
henry (suspected broken ankle)
rogers (shoulder)
ciraldo (peck / shoulder)
mcdonnell (head)
mcdougall (family)

+ adams (broken arm) from second grade

not a great start

 

[Tom155]

sau was limping too, just wasnt our day

 

[timka4]

worst news ever, and against dragons next week...

 

[Big Tim]

With or without Doogs

1. Wes
6. Mullo
7. Kurt

I would expect Lulia in if Doogs isnt ready...... gonna be a tough game. Any chance Ike will be back?

NRL live on my phone has Henry fractured ankle (no timeframe but the words hopefully this season were mentioned) Ciraldo torn pec 6-8 weeks, Rogers dislocated shoulder 6-8 weeks, Faas and Shannon both concussion 50/50 for next week.

There was no mention of Jr/Tolar/Taia injuries but that doesn't mean there not there. Club doctor said its the worst injury toll he's seen in his 21 years and that the sheds looked like a MASH unit.

On the plus side, Sterlo said early in the telecast that Taufua is back next week.

On the plus side, Sterlo said early in the telecast that Taufua is back next week.

I would say he probably read that on one of the websites that say he was due back round 3 or 4 (seen a few of them). Pika mentioned this a few days ago when asked how Taufua was going:

Slowly rolla.

Very frustrating.

TripleM NRL on Twitter reported no ankle break for Henry, apologies if you already knew this.

Ligament damage?
