One of the most severe hamstring injuries I’ve ever seen on video here. Really hope he’s OK #thoughtsandprayers
00:00- About as clear an achilles rupture you will see on video for Tyrese Haliburton here - classic pushing off mechanism & clear pop through calf. Will require surgery & >9 month recovery, feel for him in such a big game.
- Warning graphic: At least a fibula fracture for Connor McGregor, possible tibia as well. Not an open fracture (bone pierces skin), full recovery likely. Likely requires surgery, at least 3+ months rehab. Possibly much longer depending on severity #UFC264 x.com/_IrfanAnwar_/s…
- Contact is direct and forceful, no attempt to wrap the arm, no mitigating factors. Virat Kohli should be in the sin bin for 10 & facing a 3-4 week suspension #AUSvIND
- Textbook coin-toss hamstring strain mechanism. Likely to require 2-4 weeks recovery. Main rehab challenge is loading - need to start with tossing 5c coins and slowly progress all the way up to 50c. If that’s done too quickly re-injury risk is sky high
- Storm confirm Eli Katoa is in a stable condition after suffering seizure activity & undergoing surgery. Reportedly had a brain bleed & surgery was to release fluid & relieve pressure on his brain (via @ScottBaileyAAP). A serious situation & pretty unprecedented from an NRL
- Some exciting personal news: my wife & I welcomed our first bub this week. While I’m already making plans to buy bub her first footy, unfortunately NRL injury updates may not be as immediate in the next few weeks. But the sounds of NRL game coverage help calm a crying baby right?
- In Cameron Smith’s 430 game career he missed only 15 due to injury, suspension or being rested. Went over 6 years without injury til late 2020. Available for 97% of games over 18 years. Achievements & performance obviously supreme, but one of the best abilities is availability
- Huge huge credit to Dane Gagai here. Was scary to see Cobbo in that way, so glad to see amongst the craziness someone step in immediately to look after his welfare #Origin
- The NRL have confirmed there will be no rule changes heading into the 2025 season. That means kickoffs will be staying the same - the proposed 7 tackle/20m line change from a report earlier today won’t come into effect. News that will be well received by Paleaaesina enthusiasts.
