The Pray for Keary Thread

[Lydon]

Robbo even talking about possibly naming Keary in his squad on Tuesday.

I wouldn't mind seeing him have a week off.

Best case scenario.

Wow that’s the best news we could receive,such an important part of our team!

Was that after he got the scans done, or just hope?

I’m not super religious but might go and become Catholic, Buddhist, Muslim, Protestant, Scientologist, Seventh Day Adventist, Hindu and a Morman just to make sure my prayers are heard.

Just hope.

No scans yet. Seemed confident it was just the MCL though.

he was being playful at this point, reporters were asking him whether O'Sullivan would replace Keary and he made a throw away line about the 21 being named on Tuesday and the 19 on Friday.

Initial reports from the Roosters medical staff is a suspected MCL injury for Luke Keary, thinking no ACL injury at this stage. Scans immediately to confirm. General recovery guide for an MCL injury: Grade 1: 1-3 wks Grade 2: 3-6 wks Grade 3: 6-10 wks

I can't imagine it was ACL looking at the footage.

I'll take an MCL grade 2 please. I'm not greedy.

Are there any players this year that have done an MCL and how have they comeback?

plenty have done low grade MCL's, Napa is about to return from one.

[Tom Verlaine's Ghost]

Let's face it, we're gone. Such a bloody shame. We were going well enough to win this damn thing. Ugh!!

I remember Mitchell Moses did one in similar circumstances but not sure how long he was out for.

[Mickie Lane]

My preference would be to play Latrell at 5/8 whilst Keary is out but it would weaken the centre position that Latrell plays in so I would go with Radley & play SST at lock & bring Napa into the side.
Collins, Liu, Aubusson & Tetevano/Butcher on the bench.
I think the side can still beat any team with or without Keary.

[Team Evil]

He walked off the field which is a real positive so lets hope its not too bad.

These are my thoughts too Mickie. My first thought was Latrell but that would mean Aubo in the centres. So my second choice would be Victor. Robbo will probably go for Cornish though!

You can walk even with a ruptured ACL, it just impacts on your ability to move laterally.
