Where's Dr Peter Larkins when you need him? That was his favourite word.

Not far away from a syndesmosis injury either. Lucky!

Good call Olliver

Better than the alternative. Looking at the positive side.

I think that’s worst case.

I am at Doctor now (former Saints Dr), next one in, I’ll ask him and get back to you

 

[tomjoad]

I really feel for Paddy. I try not to get sucked in when other posters start bagging the guy out. He's never had a clear block of games to get going. I was always of the opinion that he could've been anything. Seems a top guy. Hope he gets some answers, and more than anything I suppose, makes an informed and we'll judged decision with regards to his future.

Lethers dodged the question about whether Richo had to make finals to be extended....
“ we just have to keep on improving.”

Relieved the Ming injury is just ankle syndesmosis.

Billings taken his leadership on field to a new level. He absolutely loves the club. In final stages of sorting out the contract.

fancy way of saying he badly sprained his ankle. will be fine.

Syndesmosis is actually damage to the ligaments holding both leg bones together. Often Happens when foot is stuck in ground and leg twists too far

 

[Wright 1]

So Dr was just saying that it could be the season over almost. Can be a bit hard to get over depending on how severe it is. It is the ligaments that hold the bone on outside of leg to ankle joint. Not good

They are saying it's only around 6 weeks which suggests the joint is still stable and surgery isn't required which is on a common high ankle sprain type of the syndesmosis injuries. When surgery is required it gets more serious.

does it require surgery?

 

[Diehard Saint]

It was 3aw after 6:00pm. May have it on the website.

Didn’t mention any surgery for Max, and none required for Steele (2/3 weeks)

 

[Wright 1]

does it require surgery?

No it can be a very slow recovery is what he said. When I told him King had Syndesmosis he screwed his face up like “Ouch”

$1.4m a season. I'd pay it.

Only problem is Coniglio's seasons have been:

12 games
18
14
18
23
10
23

So looks like he's not super durable. With our luck he'll take the offer and his leg will fall off the next day.

Reading up on syndesmosis injuries there are different severities with varying rehab timeframes ranging between 1 month - 6 months. Again, depending on severity, crutches or a moon boot may be required. Surgery an option for the high end damage. Surely the fact that Winx was walking (admittedly favouring his ankle) unaided & without a moon boot the day after the injury is a positive? Even the fact that he is walking? The only logical conclusion is his injury is on the lower level of the scale. *Hoping*

Is it just me or are some a little gobsmacked that he now has a syndesmosis injury.

I'd never heard of it until one poster yesterday......while we were all having heart failure......posted that it could be that.

We were all going into hyper meltdown over a possible re injuring of his knee....then off for scans.....we dodged a bullet....it was "only" a jarred knee.....the scar tissue is ok from the reconstruction.

Today...….hold on....no it's not knee related.......it's a syndesmosis injury.
