Dr cod'ead's diagnosis? - Pott's fracture and dislocation of the tibia & fibula.
Prognosis? Won't play again this season but with modern physio techniques, he'll be back next year

I did a similar thing jumping off a wall when drunk. Didn’t feel a thing at the time but it hurt like fook the next day. My ankle was still displaced when I got to hospital, had to spend the night and have it straightened the next day. I was lucky as the bone split to allow my ankle to come out, and it didn’t snap. Six months it took to recover, but that was mainly due to the ligament damage.
Hope he has a speedy recovery.

Ouch! Full break through both fibula and tibia. Let's hope it's not a compound (bones broke through skin) or else it could get especially nasty.
While many players have come back from similar (Chev Walker, and, in football, Cisse, Eduardo, etc) some players have had their careers ended by these injuries (see rlDavid Busstrl for more, but not if you're squeamish).
Wishing him all the best in his recovery.

It was a compound fracture - you could see a patch of blood on his sock at the point of the injury, which I assume is where the bone came through the skin.
It was a real stomach churner - nealy lost my pizza. |

Think of George Rose's couple of season's ago for Manly. Compound fracture and foot facing the wrong way! Came back and won a premiership a year later. Good luck to Yow Yeh.

It was a bad one, no doubt.
He's young, strong and determined. He'll be back next year as good as new. Good luck to the kid.
On another note, loved the compassion shown by Greg Inglis when he was holding his hand......I love this sport
