Chris Knight another setback

Another set back?

Think that should read they finally worked out what was causing the soreness, after biting the bullet and sending him for surgery to see if there was a problem and guess what there was

Bit harsh, didn't have a major injury when he arrived. Was playing decent footy when he hurt his knee

Suffered a pretty horrendous dislocation of his kneecap that caused significant ligament damage. Wasn't a standard knee injury, frightfully unlucky TBH, was there in Adelaide that day

And now after 14 odds weeks of not doing anything, trying to manage it, rest it they send him for surgery and they finally find out that the soreness is being caused by floating bone. Don't think he can be blamed for that

This is the problem with RFC that holds the club back for over 30 years.
Players who are constantly injured over a few years. Clearly their bodies are not up to the rigors of AFL football.
David Astbury,  Ben Griffiths,  Chris Knights,  Jake King.
Players who have come to Richmond with a history of injury or have arrived & spent alot of time off the field. You got to cut loose guys who don't give anything to the club over a period is no benefit to the club or the playing list.
l reckon Knights will retire at seasons end & we have got nothing. Griffith has given nothing & Astbury is the same. Kingy is a player who will give 100% & from over doing it will always be injured or suspended & to me as much as l like this bloke & his courage. If he dont have a good season next year then we have recruited poorly over the last few years.

the days of the courageous hard hitting & guts players is gone. Weeded out by the pace of the game or mostly by the laws of the game & how it is interpreted which takes the likes of Kingy out of today's modern game. It also affects the types of Cotchin who is a known player for diving into the hard contest which the laws are a blight on the game & many are trying to get some of these rules abolished as they are just plain stupid rules. Our great game is under the threat of becoming a soft sport to suit the likes of a former Essendon player

You gotta have faith in your players though. Astbury has shown he could be one of our most important players if he stays healthy. Griffiths has the potential as well. Geelong has stuck by Menzel after 3 knee recos now I think? maybe even 4. I agree with Knights though purely because he isn't good enough anyway. Not worth the hassle since he is getting old now.

Is Knights now down to 5 days?

Sadly, we can't trust the RFC injury list .
