    Hall's wrist

    Was broken most of last season. Had surgery over Christmas. Needed more work. Swans spy an opportunity to do it sooner rather than later following brain melt down in qtr 1. Hall feigns injury in qtr 4. Surgery today.

      I love the world you live in ROK.

      You have conspiracy theories to challenge the conspiracy theories. Brilliant stuff

        The theory is as likely as much of what Roos claims.

          We all saw the Roos/Hall 'discussion' at half time.
          Hall looked as if Roos had just broken his arm to me......
          Roos then clearly told him to feign an onfield wrist injury.

              What I don't understand is why surgery? I too have broken my wrist in the past and all that was required was a plaster cast for the next 6 weeks.
              I suppose he requires pins, but even then the incident didn't look that bad.

                I'm no doctor, but they did mention on the night they thought it was a forward break and not a back break, which would mean realignment via pins, etc are needed. Plus if you break it forward it takes longer to heal.

                  When I broke my wrist (forward) last year, I was put under so that they could realign it. Mine was a very clean break. I was VERY lucky the doctors said. Normally for a foward break it involves pins and plates.

                    As gossipcom pointed out different remedies for different types of breaks.
                    It could also be a matter of expediency, they don't want to wait 6 weeks to find it hasn't healed correctly. Get it fixed ASAP.

                      I mentioned in another thread that the budgie criminal's faithful are saying that Blind Barry didn't break his wrist at all - the swans are just saying that he did because they don't want their fans to turn on him.

                      Indeed.

                      Anyone who has broken anything, or who has watched MASH could see straight away that he'd broken his wrist.

                        and the blood on his head was just a squib?

                          I didn't think it was broken, but then I don't watch M.A.S.H.

                            That was the Tomato Sauce from Stella's Sausage Roll.

                              The blood was blood. He had to hit the fence to make it look convincing - nothing half arsed.
