Jude's Knee - ACL Fears :(

[giant]

Not dissimlar to the Buddy one last year or Mummy's a few weeks back - or let's hope so anyway.

Just shattering for him (and us!) for him to get a serious injury this close to finals/300 games when he's in this sort of form.

That's right I thought there was a major one last year similar to Jude.

But Mummy is half Jude's age. That is my major concern. That he will not come back this season due to taking so much longer to heal. shudder.

Twitter says no surgery, 2 weeks out likely.

Good news!

Good news!

If the twits (or is that tweeters) are right we can be happy!

Bolton confirmed himself on Twitter but says 2-3 weeks

Actually a good sign that he was limping. ACLs have no blood running through them, so the initial snap is excruciating, but they can walk normally shortly afterwards.

Twitter isn't a source, people. It's like saying the internet is a source. It's the individuals or organisations who use Twitter that are the sources.

Jude has just used Twitter to say:
"Good result with the scan - thanks for all the messages of support! Should only miss 2-3 weeks. Will help cheer the boys on vs Coll! #afl"

We need him fit for the finals!

Would N Gordon be the best midfield replacement?

Orthopedic surgeon: "Well Jude, good news is we don't have to amputate"

@Jude_Bolton - "Good result with the scan. back in 3 weeks"

[BillyRayCypress]

See told you it was only a flesh wound.

Our senior citizen will be rested and ready to take on the finals.

I'm not %@$#!*%#%# sure.

Bring in Armstrong and shift Nick Smith into the midfield.

Hahahah. I see what you did there

I'd love to see Nipper get a run but you're suggestion sounds most likely. Nick Smith might have a role on Swan, Pendelbury or Beams

great news about boltons knee. (Tweet of 2-3 weeks)

All I need now is for curiosity to make a safe landing, and it will make my day.
