Fractured Clavicle 8-12 weeks for Steele

Bloody hell that looks like more than a fracture looks like a complete break in 2 places.

How is this stuff getting leaked on to socials?

 

[SaintsofSteel]

HTF was he allowed to play out the game with two breaks in his collar bone? Surely our medicos are better than that? Is there a chance someone has doctored that XRay picture?

His girlfriend's name is Jaz so I'd say she has sent it to a friend who has leaked it.

Looks like she uploaded it to Snapchat herself

Ok… two questions;

1. How the **** did the medicos miss that?!

2. Just how ****ing tough is Jack Steele

2. Just how ******* tough is Jack Steele?!!!

Agree with point 1 but the answer probably has something to do with point 2.

It's not something you can tell without an x-ray and my guess is Steele being the hard bastard he is probably told them he was good to go.

Just got told that’s from the past injury, so… fingers crossed…

Whelp… scratch that… Age is reporting it now.

F#*K.

[triggering bro]

Not good but could’ve been far worse.

 

[ScrappyDo]

One Jack out, one Jack back in.

 

[Munga]

He actually got a handball with that.
It's funny remembering Daisy Thomas' words now, "Steele's arm is just dangling there".

 

[Mavefromdelburn]

Jesus Christ, that's a shocking x-ray if that's from last night.
One tough bastard.
This link: Steele to miss with broken collarbone
says 4 week recovery window...?
surely it's more like 8-10

I think 4 weeks is about right. Similar injury to Spider Everitt in the 1997 finals. 3 weeks was a week or two short to be avail for the GF. Cost us a flag.

One Jack out, one Jack back in.

Or Marcus. Whomever misses to be the sub. Though Byrne could also miss out on selection.

 

[bergholt]

I know zero about medicine but surely big broken bones don't heal in 4 weeks?!

Wasn't that around the time he took last year?

 

[Olliver]

No they don’t which is why he’ll have it plated and away you go.

He missed ~6 weeks but that was an AC joint reco.

Plates and pins will help.

 

[SaintsofSteel]

Plates and pins will help.

I still think 4 weeks is very conservative, according to Dr Google most take 6-8 weeks to fully recover. Perhaps the club are trying to manage the media damage over our ever growing injury list.

He'll be back in two [emoji36]
