Mitch McGovern

[Donkey Magoo]

It's legit, it's just nowhere because it's a story released late on the friday before Christmas


Only reported by a WA paper because they wouldn't have knocked off yet for end of year drinks when they received the press release.

Released late... buried.
Media 101 take out the trash late Friday arvo.

News report I heard on 3BA this morning said it was to early to say how much time on the sidelines would be required, sounded a bit pessimistic to me.

 

[CrowinNT]

I really don't wish injurys on any player.
Mitch has copped his fair share.

 

[Squiba]

Sounds like he should be back straight after Christmas, if all goes to plan that's no huge set back.

He will just need to be careful what he eats over Christmas as his movement will be hampered.

Eating is a favourite pastime of the McGovern

Gov's gone from X-Factor with us to X-Ray factor at Carlton

Will Carlton be accused of being deceptive about their injuries?

There will be a few HAM-strings in danger I suspect.

 

[cmndstab]

Fractured back, ouch. At least it won't keep him out for too long.

Did Carlton build their training centre on an Indian burial ground or something? They seem to have even worse luck than we do.

The 'Leave the Crows' curse strikes once again.

I know the whole doctor patient confidentiality stuff, but I’ve got some contacts who were able to get hold of the x rays of his spine.

He was so hungry he swallowed them whole

 

[FR0GGY]

Can anyone find me that photo of him posing in the pool with his guts on show?

Gone from a flag favorite to a spoon favorite too.

Still has it as his insta profile pic

 

[Cap]

I've fractured my back before, twice.

I hope he drinks lots of calcium.

 

[douglyzia]

Hmmm. Anyone see a connection there?

*cough* *Linsfranc* *cough* *ACL* *cough* *back fracture* *cough*

 

[mistylake]

holy s**t. fractured back.

tough break

Yeah , I broke 3 vertebrae in May. On a trampoline, well off a trampoline to be precise. Very shocked when the doctor told me broken vertebrae. Then said your right to go home. Transverse process fracture is not really that bad and might be what he’s done.

What a turkey.

Big improvement as normally he wears most of his food.

I do hope it's not too serious and he gets back to fitness soon.

 

[MRB37]

I can't find where I read it now, but the person mentioned the type of injury he had was dependent on the sort of shape the person was in and the healing time was lowered a fair bit if they had strong core and stabalizing muscles and were in good shape. That didn't exactly fill me with a ton of confidence Gov would only be out 2-4 weeks.

 

[CutAboveTheRest]

lol.. some of these comments are bloody comedy.
