Yep great news, no need to rush him though.

My source is news articles that I've read but I'm not going to waste my time looking for them for you
The operation wasn't done until the end of last year and he's been playing football for about a month now, so far less than 6 months

Yeah well I've read conflicting reports and heard differently.
Anyways we await the scans..
I don't know how hard this is to comprehend. He was booked in for a reconstruction, all the news said he was going in for the procedure. However during the operation, the surgeon realised it didn't need to be done. It wasn't until afterwards that it was mentioned that he only needed a clean up. If he'd had a reco, they use industrial strength fibre like in the LARS surgury for knees, an old mate of mine had one done by Greg Hickey who is the club doctor and had it done this way. He took 6 months before he could even lift his arm over his head after the surgury.

exactly, which isn't exactly ideal for an elite athlete that needs mobility in his arms to take a bleedin mark ::)

Monk you make the most embarrassing statements on here.

Do you even know who Ben Griffiths is?

A Cleve Hughes clone? With respect to both players you don't have the knowledge to comment on either.

You should be a Sports Journalist. Your an expert on something you know absolutly nothing about. Have another beer Monk.
Go Tigers!

Half the reason Griffiths keeps getting injured is because he throws himself into packs trying to break them open and take a big grab
I think I saw Hughes take one big pack mark in his whole career

He was doing that before he was drafted. l'm not comparing them in talent or skills.
Was jesting that Hughes was always injured so RFC drafted a player who was one of the biggest risk in the draft  ;D

funny enough Ramps was quick but dont know about the rest  ;D but your right anyway Imfamy

Richmond is not a club which can afford Risks
dont you take any notice on the forums or the media
Richmond is on the bottom because of constant mistakes in all departments
another terrible season from our drafts will set us back another 5 years & our good draft years will be wasted with dead wood

Au contraire.  i think that's all we have these days.  Everything we do is a risk and we have to roll with it.
