According the Wildcats website he had an Anterior Cruciate Ligament rupture.

Yes he did snap his cruciate. Had an operation a few weeks ago and is recovering nicely

All sounds terribly painful to me

i think stosic's effert is best mtself 94 for a prop that is some going

I snapped (ruptured in medical terms) my anterior cruciate ligament and tore my medial meniscus (carteledge) and with physio was able to get around comfortably after about 4 weeks, would have been quicker if first surgeon i saw had sent for physio straight away. I had my operation to have it reconstructed two weeks ago and am making a very good recovery, was off my crutches after two days. Its all about keeping it moving and excercising it, gone are the days of having your leg in a splint for weeks on end.

Did Mr Rawes do your op?!

Has the number of chins gone down due to the offloading of Sculthorpe???

Yes. Are you Mr Rawes?!

aside from all the talk of injuries...96 press ups in 60 seconds is an absolutely outragious number of press ups in a minute!!!



Is there (seriously) anyone on this forum who considers themselves to be of any decent fitness level to even get close to that? keepin in mind 1 a second is still 36 short....

I could get close to that figure 25 years ago if that helps.

Almost exactly the same story as mine Uptoncat. It takes a lot of hard work but I did mine near beginning of seaon and missed the rest of the season but was skiing and playing fitter than before the season after. And I wasn't a pro. I did that at the gym while going to work.



So for Blanchy who is full time and already fit, he should have been on a static bike within 4 weeks and having the brace on to walk around. Building up the muscle is most important thing.
