Richo injury

Devastating news about Richo. Get well big fella, you're the heart and soul of this club.
 
Great news that it may be only a couple of weeks. Regarding Peter Hellier, he is about as funny as a shark attack. Can't believe McGuane had a goal post fall on him. How are we travelling at the minute!??
 
Good news for Richo. He might have the next three games off, then another week when we're not playing during the split round, and return for the Melbourne game. He'll still play his 250th this season barring further mishaps.

On the other hand, his body always bounces back quickly and he might be itching to return before the break.
 
Kent Kingsley was picked up because Wallace was so pissed off that he had to play Richo with a broken hand for six weeks last year. Thank goodness Richo looks like only being out for a few weeks. Kingsley however is his hard bodied replacement. Just in case Wallace doesn't beleive the forward line of 2011 is ready in 2007.

Mmmm not sure about that BS, yes KK is an experienced player but he is anything but a "hard bodied" replacement, he is the equivalent of a marshmallow, what he could provide and its the only thing i think he can provide is he is good on the lead.

I would personally prefer JR and Cleve to come in but TW might like to include KK for his experience.

I think Kingsley :help & Riewoldt will come in.

You maybe right right there ToO, like i said id prefer JR and cleve but maybe TW will pick one of them and KK due to his experience.
 
He done some injuries in unusual ways and a few times by friendly fire.

Krakouer knee to the head Friday night.
Ottens landing on his foot in 2000 and Richo missed remaing 18 matches.
Chaffey collided with him on the siren at Footy park in 1997 breaking his arm.

Then Monkey backhander in a ruck contest to break his cheekbone and Richo colliding with the fence in Sydney to wreck his knee. he could write a chapter on unusual ways to get injured.
