Gilbert suspended for 1 week.

Might be a blessing in disguise. Move Plath to lock and Herbie (C). Then find a place for Gilbert around that.

 

[Liverbird with Phins up]

He has missed two years basically. I remember when DeBelin missed all that time. He came back and was dogs bollocks.

It took time.

Where did you get the info?

He got it from one of the many pages that he scrolls through. Plathy can't even see a specialist till Tuesday. The extent of the injury will be known then. 2-6 weeks is best case scenario.

It's correct info though.

It's correct info though.

Where did you get the info? Seems quite large difference. 2 weeks or 3x that. Usually they are able to be more precise.

I hope you're right but "a guy who trained physio" is a university professor. I'm not sure right now, they used to be close but one needed higher QCE or HSC marks to major in physiotherapy than those majoring in medicine (i.e. doctors).

As close to directly from Max Plath as you can get. "Maxy just got back info from scans and it’s a Petronius Longus ligament that’s torn so it might only be 2 weeks out at the best or a few more at the worst."

 

[Liverbird with Phins up]

2-6 weeks for any ligament injury that isn’t serious is generally going to be in the ball park.

Any drunk chancer could say that at a pub or on a forum and be correct.

The problem being, that he will then be considered an ITK, then the listener thinks everything he says is right.

Wait for the club to come out with something and we will all know.

He has already had the surgery performed. Out another 4-6 weeks. Donoghoe and Kafusi will likely be back on Thursday.

Hopefully Donoghue and Stone can make up for his absence.
