This looks just like the tickle Hayne received last evening.

 

[flash]

Perhaps there is hope for Slammin' Sam yet....

Tom.

Wow.. not a AFL fan but just read this guy got carried off again today. The 2nd game back.

Really have to feel for the poor guy. Given he has had six knee reconstructions, and as much as I wish him well, you'd think it was only a matter of time until it goes again. I hope he spent the time out of the game getting another qualification and preparing himself for life after football....

Isn't that what Nathan had? He was out for 8 or so weeks.

I thought that was a tear or pull? this from what I've heard is just a sprain

Ok cool.

Ridiculous how many levels of same/similar injuries there are. Could be a blessing if he's 100% healed from the new injury for finals and gets the rest he needs from his other injuries.

A fit Maloney is crucial for a grand final appearance

That sucks hard. Has anyone ever recovered from a third ACL injury to have a normal career?

Seems that even recovering from 2 is a short list of players.

According to NRL physio.
Maloney out for between 3- 6 weeks.

Losing Maloney is a blow but we can manage without him.

Next 2 - 3 weeks yes. After that probably no.

 

[Exsilium]

Next 2 - 3 weeks yes. After that probably no.

I was going to edit the post to say just that.

We’d need him for a grand final. If we make it that far.

 

[martielang]

Yep, need him back in 3, maybe 4 if we make the top 4.

Really bad for us that Luai is also injured at the same time. Any idea when he will be back?

I guess May comes into 6 and Egan comes onto the bench?

Playing like he has been we are FAR better off

So basically out for the season unfortunately.

Maloney out could.be a good thing for the next 3 weeks will stiffen our defence and no intercepts id go zelezniak at fullback phillips wing peachey 5/8 leave may on the bench

 

[betcats]

Current Maloney is no loss, but I was hoping he’d find some form again which won’t happen now.

Such an amateur decision to not rest him this week, last week or the week before. You could see he needed it, he has been hurting us not helping us anyway.
