Where's Roo?

[carlyp]

What haapened to Roo? Is he sick or something? I just noticed that Humm replaced him...! Hmm seems kinda trewey!
As for the rest of the game I think were doing half okay...Both teams have been good at times and its a real even contest! Its going to be a close won!

He got a knock to the knee/leg at training yesterday apparently, and boy did we miss him

 

[carlyp]

Yeah EKA we really did miss him. Although Humm did alright it wasnt the same as having Pete playing!

 

[iceman]

I agree EKA, we definetly missed Roo no end. His ability to stay composed under pressure was worth gold today

 

[Voice of Reason]

Well the only significant loss mentioned by the TV commentators today was that Richmond have had a terrible blow in that Ray Hall couldn't play. They didn't mention Peter Matera missing before the game at all. They are pathetic.

Yes the Channel 10 Victorian commentators were so shocking, it almost brough back memories of the Don Scott era. If that ****head calls Glen Jakovich "Allen Jakovich" one more time he should be sacked. I do not know of anyone who could confuse the two, especially since one hasnt been playing for years.

Just on the topic of this thread it looks like Roo could be out for up to 4 weeks. Not good :/

On the positive side that bit of info came from the Sunday Times which we all know isnt the most reputable source of information, and it was given as the maximum that he could be looking to be sat out for.

 

[iceman]

Huge loss if true - especially considering he's been having a stellar season so far

 

[GoEagles]

Shocking loss if it is a full month without Roo. One positive will be getting Gardiner back for next week.

 

[Thrawn666]

Just to Update the Roo sitcho Ch7 said tonight it could be anywhere between 2 and 6 weeks.

On the commentators - get down on your knees and give thanks to your deity of choice that Ian Robertson wasn't in the box as well.

I can handle vague disinterest. I cannot stand constant bagging.
