Jharal Yow Yeh injury update thread

[Jeba]

KFC will solve that

Not sure they'd be aiming for Jharal Rose Yeh!

Ouch, he's not exactly fat so that 15kg's would be a lot of muscle mass. You can't really gain more than half a kilo a week on average of lean muscle mass so that in itself could take 6 months to recover the muscle strength.

He has a long road ahead of him, not going to be easy. I hope he can return to his best, would be sad if that wasn't the case as he's such a phenomenal talent.

We should all chip in and buy him a crapload of tinned tuna!

There is a photo of him, visiting the training session.

Not the best, but you can see he has lost heaps of weight.

 

[Coxy]

Soft. He should be out there training on one leg. No heart :P

 

[Broncoman]

Gee Jharal looks thin. Good to see him out of hospital.

Its a camouflage technique, he can stand next to the posts or blade of grass and no one see him.

That weight has come off pretty damn quick, my guess is the trainers etc know what they're doing - 15kg less weight for a dodgy ankle to carry around I guess. Get the bone healed, then bring strength back over time.

I hate him, I stop training and I got fat...

 

[vertigo]

2 words, muscle atrophy.

 

[Kris]

Maybe he lost 15kgs of water weight.

Great 2 page spread story on yow yeh in the sunday mail today. Says he is 14kg lighter and that its been absolute hell

I really hope Yow Yeh can make it back. That article makes the Gagai release an even bigger call IMO. We really need to look at signing some cover just in case.

Yeah, I'm worried he'll end up like Steve Michaels, who was good before he got that serious injury in 07.

Yeah different kind of injuries but, I'd imagine a knee would be on your mind more than Yow Yeh's, not saying its not a massive injury but the chance of rebreaking it would be a lot smaller than it would an acl. Once he's walking and running again he'll come along in leaps and bounds.

Edit: he did a heap of ligaments and stuff also right? Maybe I'm mistaken here then.

 

[Bucking Beads]

I dunno I reckon the Yow yeh injury will be harder to get over mentally than what Michaels had to deal with. Michaels had it tough though.

 

[Big Pete]

Jharal also has more talent than Michaels did.

Michaels just had speed, when he lost that, he lost everything.

I felt for him big time before reading that story ... after reading it I'd just about be willing to donate a kidney if it helped him out ..

 

[Bucking Beads]

I saw his girlfriend in the Sunday paper. I don't feel that sorry for him
