OK, who's injured?

[barbarian]

Maybe a better question is who is NOT injured. Off the top of my head:

Horwill (ankle)
Daley (shoulder?)
Waugh (?)
TPN (shoulder?)
Davies (concussion?)
Hynes (?)

I reckon Horwill looked the worst, but at least it was an ankle and not a knee or shoulder I suppose.

Have I missed anyone?

They all look minor apart from Horwill

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

They said Waugh had a bicep complaint. Baxter appears to have had some cramp. The Tahs don't appear to have suffered anything too serious (knock on wood).

 

[cyclopath]

Yep, Horwill looked the worst.
Waugh can't be killed with an axe.
TPN will be OK, but I wish he would stop trying to kill himself.
Davies will be OK
Daley might be a concern - looked like forearm maybe? Shoulder?

Oh shit, Horwill again. How bad fellas? Hopefully not as bad as last year.

 

[barbarian]

Hickey mentioned Barnes, so maybe he should be added to the list. Didn't see him go down.

Barnes got a heavy concussion.

Looked like an ankle - if it's just ligaments, maybe not too bad. Geez I hope for him, for Qld and for Aus he is not gone for long.

Barnes got knocked out tackling Ioane. Still managed to complete the tackle. When he tried to get up and fell back on his ass and then could even kneel. He was telling Lawrence I am alright and Lawrence said to him you can't even stand up. When Sharon Flahive came on to him he asked what the score was. He will have the concussion tests this week and we shall see.

The real worry with ankles is if it's a syndesmosis injury or high ankle sprain, which seems to make months to come back from. Hopefully this is not the problem as Horwill deserves better luck than he has had and the Reds need him back as soon as possible.

I was thinking more a rolled ankle, rather than a separation or bad sprain of the syndesmosis. That could be a disaster.

Add me to the list as I think my pride has been wounded.

Hangas told me after that Waugh will be out for 3 weeks, tricep.

Surely the old war horse can soldier on with one arm. After all didn't he play most of a Super season with a broken foot?

Just read on a Saffa news site that Juan Smith has torn his Achillies and will be out for 6 to 9 months thereby missing the RWC. Big Big blow to the Boks.

That's huge for the Boks....poor guy - as much as he won't be missed by me at the RWC, you gotta feel for the bloke...

 

[Richo]

Rough on JS. The Cup will be poorer for his absence.

 

[qwerty51]

Would you believe he went off 2 mins into the game last night. That's how good the Cheetahs played.

Just saw Queensland hope and expectation wander into Emergency as I drove past Concord Hospital.

Have a chat to Link, Ruggo. You might be able to go through rehab together....
