Malceski lame?

[swantastic]

He was rushed back into the side when he should have eased back for a month or so in the reserves. Regardless of the operation's success, I don't think we'll see him back to his best until next year.

Spot on hammo as always.

Agree, as with any op it takes a long time to over come the full pain of the surgery, and regain 100% confidence in your and the knees ability.

Agree there Scott,when i only did my medial ligament i was out of match action for 13 weeks but was then eased back into the side for the last 4 weeks of the season.

I started training after 9 weeks with running in a straight line only then after 2 weeks tried side ways movement but only with a knee brace on.I continued playing in a knee brace for the rest of the season and continued wearing it up untill christmas.

When i played my first game back i was very nervous and i only played about 30 minutes
