True. But without knowing the actual problem he might still be out for 6-10 weeks. :cry:
Which may well happen, but we know he can recover from that. An ACL could well have been the end.

Time for Bruce and McCartin to stand up if they are our future!
Yes. But I want this regardless of whether Roo plays, or where he plays!

HE WILL NOT BE AROUND FOR OUR NEXT FLAG TILT SO IT'S BETTER WE GET USED TO PLAYING WITHOUT HIM SOONER RATHER THAN LATER!
The same goes for Joey, Dempster and Gilbert.
I wouldn't take that to the Bank if I were you.

Hopefully Nick will be OK.

Still concerned a little, as if you hear a click or pop its generally unmistakable and you'll have the worse pain for 3 to 5 minutes, followed by feeling fine, and later swelling.

I hope the scans are correct, as my brother actually had two scans done over different years, and both showed it was fine, but when they actually went inside to take a look, it wasn't the case at all :(

Although in Nicks case it looks like a hyper extension of the knee, so I'll learn towards the positive side I think, we'll find out over the coming weeks I guess.
