is Walshy gone for season or can he make it back for finals?
No. He is out for 4 to 5 months, assuming his recovery is a smooth one. He had a compound fracture. Those are vulnerable to infection so the estimate is probably a conservative one. However, we were expecting 12 months prior to his surgery. His injury was horrible to see.
Since we are also without our back up 7 for the season and our other half, not to mention our first choice fullback who is also gone for the season, I reckon we will soon be sliding down from the top spot we have held for most of the season. We are having to play a centre in the halves.
Walsh made a massive difference to our team. He was a joy to watch and I just hope he makes a full recovery and returns to us next season. He's become a fans favourite during his time with us.
As for Mose, he was out at first thanks to an injury he picked up in the world cup and then he took his time getting up to speed. Fans were just starting to get annoyed with him and then he realised that he couldn't get away with doing the minimum. Over the last six weeks he has really stepped up and is showing us good value.
