Not being a medical expert I don't have a clue what this means in terms of an injury lay off but Smith seems to think Joel Monaghan has done his medial ligament?

It looks like Ade Gardner has a severely torn or snapped achiles for us too icon_sad.gif

How long does that normally leave someone sidelined for ?

Done my ligament's a week or so ago and I'm just about back running again.

In other words - there are 3/4 levels of ligament damage, and all determine differing levels of recovery. Strain, Tear, Cruciate etc.

Hopefully just a strain/tear.

Hopefully its not too bad.

That lad in the 2nd Row can take his place.

The depth in the squad is a real bonus this year.

Plus we still have some decent quality out on loan

Its a loss of a good player, but the difference this year is that we have other plyers blooded & ready to step up to fill his position.

Gutted if this is true, when did this happen? I can't remember the tackle etc.

Usually 4-6 weeks. Louis should be back next weeks which means Matt King will possibly move back to the wing.

At least we have some good options now when a player is out for several weeks!
I don t think Joel as missed many games since coming over as he?

Gaz Carvell want's to take Joel's place. He said in the MOM interview last night!

Or Riley back from Quinns???

Shame if he's out for a while, the try he scoredand the pass inside for Briers' first were fantastic.
So who do we bring back in...

Riles, Rhys, Matty?

Am I right in thinking that if Riley has gone for a month, he has to stay for a month? I'm sure the same thing happened with Rhys Williams at Crusaders.

Just watching the game again good finish by Joel for his try.

I was thinking the same Tessidewire, but isn't there something where a player can be recalled due to injury??

I don't think he can , but Rhys Evans can be recalled anytime as he is on dual registration.
