John Morris

[Redback71]

may have a broken leg :shock: :x

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Terrible news, our luck huh?

 

[half]

*broken heart*

 

[Glenn]

Oh god, things go from bad to worse to abysmal

 

[wittyfan]

Poor Johnny.

 

[Eels Dude]

He must be the only regular first grader for Parramatta who hasn't had a considerable spell on the sidelines during the past two years. It had to happen I guess.

 

[scottyeel]

Im pretty sure he has played every game except for when smith dropped him.

 

[Belly in Brisvegas]

Look I'm no doctor but if you have a broken leg, regardless of severity, are you going to be sitting on the sidelines at any stage and not have your leg elevated?

 

[CrazyEel]

They are now saying its a broken arm

 

[queanbeyhole hindy fan]

I see where you're coming from Belly, and he also played on while we were defending for a few sets too :?
Fingers crossed it's not a broken leg.

 

[Utey]

They said arm on nrl.com but leg on foxtel. We will definalty give away fewer penalties around the ruck now. I think hopkins did well so its not as bad as it would usually be.

 

[Earl]

The strange thing about it is that he played on for about 5 mintues after suffering the injury.

If someone has a broken leg they usually can't move :?

 

[Glenn]

Yep looking at the highlights, if his leg was broken he wouldn't walk off the field un aided :?

 

[strider]

Its definitely his leg - they showed him with ice on it in the change rooms during the 2nd half on foxtel.....but not elevated - maybe a small fracture doesn't cause sevre swelling so no need to elevate it.

While they say broken, I assume they mean fracture....broken gives you visions of bones snapped in half - but a small fracture could just be a painful thing with the bones still in place, but another blow could cause alot of damage....and it could be the smaller bone in the leg fractured which would mean u can still walk on it and stuff.

I think it was Joel Monahan from Canberra who did a similar thing earlier this season....hurt his leg, turned up to training the next day and told the physio his leg still hurt alot, then went for scans and they found a fracture.

But I guess its just guess work at the moment as to whether its a fracture or not.

They showed how he did it too...he was in a tackle and Vella jumped in and landed on his leg (while they were all still standing)....geez Micky :roll:

Vossy said on the footyshow that Morris came back to Sydney on an early flight and had scans this morning.

Definitely cracked bone in the league.....out for at least a month.

[eelegant]

SMH today said a small crack in his leg, COULD be out for up to 4 weeks.

Hopefully he's fit for the Panthers game then!
