The type of surgery Malceski had isn't suitable to every ACL, and in fact probably the minority that you see with AFL footballers.

So Waite may not have been able to do it anyway.

Even if it was suitable for his type of tear......as others have pointed out, getting back sooner doesn't always mean better.

Malceski may well wish he had taken longer and done a full rehab with it now.
 
I'm glad the club took the safe, well known route for this type of surgery. Why rush him back and risk getting him injured again when we aren't that much of a threat this year. Get him right for 2010. Also, just because it's quicker recovery time doesn't mean it's better.
 
Does anyone think it would have been worth the risk for our club to use the new fibre technology with Waite's reco? Imagine having him up forward in the finals. I know hindsight is a wonderful thing, but with our HUGE chance of finishing top 4, it kills me waite wont be a part of the next month of footy.

Totally agree. Absolutely spot on again dblues. Let's go an experimental procedure and risk a good rehabilitation of a star player so he can play finals whilst half fit.

The problem is that the club probably didn't think we could make the finals with our useless coach and terrible excuse for a recruiting team. It's amazing that we have managed to overcome these huge hurdles though. Have you been sharing some pearls of wisdom down at princes park.

Hope you've found a comfortable seat on the bandwagon and I can only hope the last line of your post is correct.
