Injury Suban

[Belele]

Ugly, reminescent of Barlow... here's to a speedy recovery

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Ouch ouch ouch, first thought was "Barlowesque".

Looked very bad.

 

[Eagle87]

There are some camera angles that shouldn't be seen.

Best of luck to the bloke but thats season ending unfortunately.

There are some camera angles that shouldn't be seen.

I'm not quesy with blood and guts, but had to look away on the replay

 

[Mephistopheles929]

Looked horrible on the TV.

Best of luck to the kid, I hope he has a speedy recovery but it looks season ending.

Jeez you guys are having a rotten run with serious leg injuries to your young guys. Barlow and Morabito both with year long injuries and now Suban.

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

Hope he is ok it looked bad

 

[BananaOnTheRun]

Fuxxake, just as we get ibbo back, suban goes down. He was having such a great year too.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Broken fibula near the ankle apparently.

 

[carlton 4ever]

potentially not season ending. wish him all the best

 

[estibador]

Initial reports are it's not as bad a break as it could have been - and not in the same ballpark as Barlow's. Here's hoping.

 

[Latro]

Bad luck to Nick.

Healy said he may only miss 6 weeks.

 

[go_the_dockers]

Broken fibula near the ankle apparently.

How many weeks for a broken fibula? Something like 4-8 weeks.

Not as bad as i first thought.

 

[Notorious_29]

So sick of our young talented kids going down to very bad leg injuries. Palmer, Barlow, Mora and now Suban. Here's to a speedy recovery Subes

 

[Taylor]

It's not a weight bearing bone but wait to see if scans show any soft tissue damage surrounding it before we get any hopes up and then there's the chance that the act of breaking the bone twisted his ankle, which could keep him out longer than the break.

It's not as bad as it could have been.

 

[Nickos66]

Doesn't sound as bad as first thought. Might even see him pushing back into the selection frame in the 2nd half of the year.

 

[The Night Shift]

Shocking injury considering he was really starting to put some solid form together.

Here's hoping for a speedy recovery and a quick return to the side.

 

[pinkus maximus]

please don't post any pics

 

[Freo2012]

Damn, I mean DAMNATION

Hoping its a speedy recovery, was having a great year too.

So what do we need to sacrifice to the footy gods - gotta stop this horror injury run somehow. In windsurfing would chainsaw an old board to get the wind back, but what in footy? Perhaps stab our old footy's? And buy new Freo ones?

 

[East Freo]

Talking to a mate of mine at the game who is a a well respected physio & he said he will have a metal rod/plate inserted which will stay there for a few years & should be doing non weight bearing exercise in 3 weeks with a good prognosis of 6 to 8 weeks at worst.
But as he said until the full diagnosis is reported there are a few variables to those figures.
Lets wish for the best as he was running into ripper form.

 

[free at last]

if its suban fibula as being reported he will be back mid - year.no worries

 

[36Crazyfists]

Same hush around the ground as Barlow last year. Hopefully not as bad, he's a tough one Suban.

 

[Dormammu]

It's not a weight bearing bone but wait to see if scans show any soft tissue damage surrounding it before we get any hopes up and then there's the chance that the act of breaking the bone twisted his ankle, which could keep him out longer than the break.

Is it the same ankle he did against Geelong last year?

 

[Righteo]

As with the Port Adelaide game last year it took the sting out of the win.

****ing SICK of our rotten luck with injuries.

 

[ImperialPurple]

My buddy....

I have only ever taken this one friend of mine to two games - versus Port last year, and then again today. Hmmm.... she is officially now banned from attending Freo games.

 

[PapaJ]

Is it the same ankle he did against Geelong last year?

I was thinking the same thing. Though the break sounds bad, it looked very low and surely the ligaments in/around his ankle took a beating too.

Rotten luck for the guy, just getting his mojo back too. I hope some of that early optimism regarding fibula only etc. is right.

Get well soon Super Suban.
