When you think of how a footballer rolls around for ages after tripping over a blade of grass...

Sickening injury, but what a brave reaction from Walker. How calm was he to clap the crowd as he's carried off the pitch?

Was his bone sticking out of his leg ?

It appeared that way. Sky have just said its a serious fracture of Left Tib, on his way to hospital.

horrible injury...fair play to senior as well stopping the game to get the lad seen to

Poor lad, it looked horrific -wish him all the very best with his recovery

Appeared to be, but under his sock.

Horrific looking injury, but what a great reaction from Senior who clearly was trying to keep Walker calm whilst emphasizing the seriousness to the medics.

Walkers 'calmness' was probably mainly due to shock. Several years ago I did similar to my arm/wrist. I was totally calm and it was only an hour or so after the injury that I went very pale and all but passed out in the hospital waiting room.

Didnt atchually see it, was out, but ill look at it on my V+ thingy

That was horrible... I've givenSenior some stick for being dirty in the past, but hats off to him there.

The small plus side is that I don't think the bone broke the skin as there was no blood on his sock. That gives him a much better chance of a recovery. Get well soon.

The bone itself could have been stemming any bleeding there was, hopefully it hasn't broken the skin though.

Didn't think of that

I'm a big cycling fan, and I remember Johan Museeuw getting a compund fracture. He nearly lost his leg, then his life but recovered to win big races again.

That was horrible to look at, wish him a speedy recovery.

Does anyone think this has affected Hull K.R.'s performance tonight?..They have been a little disappointing tonight...

Anyway get well soon Chev nasty injury wouldn't wish it on anyone..

I was thinking more of Ronaldo and co who fall to the ground and roll around if someone is within two feet of them. I'm sure you knew what I meant, and as I typed it I did think I was doing a dis-service to Eduardo and Cisse.

That kind of injury genuinely makes me queezy. I think i'm right in saying, surprisingly, that is the first compound fracture i have seen during my days of playing and watching RL. Thats amazing considering the impact involved. Jesus i feel ill just watching it. Can't beat adreneline and dopamine/endorphins for carrying you through an injury like that, the body really is amazing.

All the best for a speedy recovery.
