Hmm I think Aisake O'Halpin (once he recovers from his own operation) is another option in the ruck, heck we might as well do it, I mean clearly Cain Hackland doesn't cut the mustard ..

We are F*cked if this is true. Walker Fisher Hampson all out.
Relax and take a deep breath...
Bower showed a bit yesterday so he can cover Walker's run off half back.
Edwards also showed a bit yesterday to cover Fisher's absence.
I thought Kreuzer in the ruck was the turning point in the game. His second, third and fourth efforts show he is ready to have a crack at least.
Whilst injuries are never ideal, it's not all doom and gloom guys...

Come to think of it, we're not playing teams with especially dominant ruckman in the first 6 rounds, sept for a few fairly good ones like Steven King, Jeff White and David Hille. We may be alright if our midfield can keep the posession.
We're playing against St.Kilda in round two who have King and Gardiner for rucks. Definately want to have our rest ruck options in Kreuzer and Hampson out there for that game.

I hadn't even noticed this yesterday. Absolutely terrible if true.
He looked alright exiting the arena.

IIRC, Totti knows Hammer personally so may have come straight from the horses mouth unfortunately
I'm not convinced, I did say IF true. Sorry, im not usually such a pessimist tho.
Then why not come back and confirm this, or mention this to begin with? Or at least ellaborate a bit more? Instead of saying "Hampson's gone for 6 weeks. SEEYA!"IIRC, Totti knows Hammer personally so may have come straight from the horses mouth unfortunately

Thanks for the backup Bluegal, you are quite correct. The latest is that the op was this morning and it went well, maybe be 3-4 weeks.

I would say the most likely situation is he had a partial cruciate tear or damaged another ligament, and he's had an arthroscopy. You are on crutches for a couple of weeks and he should be back playing in a month or 2.
That's what I've got to look forward to in a couple of weeks

Makes sense, I was sitting in the crowd thinking Hampson must be having one dog of a day seeing as though I couldn't recall seeing him.
Doesn't really matter. If Hammo is out he is going in the deep end regardless. No choice.
Spending a few games with more ruck time aint going to hurt him.

I doubt and pray it wasnt a partial cruciate tear as both of those are bone to bone ligaments so they have no way of regenerating... and after a knee reco myself last June I don't want to see Hammo missing for the 08 season! I hope it was just a bad grade 1 medial/lateral or a medium grade 2 which would mean an op to assist the natural healing and should only be 4-6 weeks...
bluebear can you confirm what I just said being the resident medical expert!?

SEN just reported the club says he has had arthroscopic op and it will only be 1 to 2 weeks. 
lol. I think your problem is you seem obsessed with flocking from board to board, posting your Mock-Concern efforts under player injury threads. It's kinda morbid and a little sad.
You so full of shit Parrott.
Why don't you give me some examples of this? I certainly showed no mock concern in this thread that i suppossedly flocked to. Please provide me with all of the links proving this otherwise don't make up lies.
I think it is sad that you constantly accuse people of this, especially people like myself who don't even make "good will" comments when players go down injured.
I also find it quite strange that you think you know when people are being sincere or not. Do you have some experience in posting mock concerns for injured players?
