Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Thread X

Yes - I am worried - It indicates loose ligaments - Impact injuries are different kettle of fish - As long as the surgeon does a good repair job.

I have no idea about these things, but wouldn't loose ligaments be less likely to snap (less tension)?

I recall being told when i was young that i have loose ligaments/tendons that put me less at risk of muscles tears and strains however in regards to knees you are more at risk of your knee buckling and doing the scissor motion that basicaly cuts your acl.

Im not entirely sure if its correct but i took that on board at the time. They did that small test where they move your knee and said looks like you have done your ACl because of the movement i had, however when i went and had scans they showed i was fine.

Someone with more expertise in the area may be able to shed more light, or Dr Google might be able to assist.

Hmm, makes sense I guess.

I have a loose right knee from a couple of contact-induced hyper-extensions, and it puts extra strain on the tendons that anchor the hamstring at the bottom.

Incidentally, I wish I had loose ligaments/tendons. I have the worst hammy's in the world.

I'm not sure that part constitutes medical advice.

What? Not everything written on the internet by random faceless people behind keyboards is true or good for you?

Loose ligaments can be a bit of a misleading statement. It is usually used to describe hypermobile joints that move far more than they are meant to. Usually it will mean the is less support around the joint than we require and can lead to more common joint injuries.

Sometimes if there is too much movement, damage is done and tears occur because joints have moved in ways that has them beyond the range where ligaments act to hold them in place.

Does anyone know if the Indigenous All-Stars game is broadcast anywhere? Couldn't find any info, so I assume not.

Radio only apparently. Will probably be some camera crews down there to get highlights but nothing else.

It's at Leederville I believe not Subi? Players can't even get tickets apparently..

Yep, Beau Waters is officially done. Announcement tomorrow. Sad way to end career. Shoulder rooted. Tough as nails.

Sucks for him. But if true I will be glad to see that overrated sniper gone.

We have been allocated a few, but I'm not heading up for it.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but if you're dissing JF then you're dead to me.

Campbell Brown was an overrated sniper, Waters could seriously play, just suffered so many injuries unfortunately.

JF has an amazing voice I just don't like what he does with it.
