Round 1 Discussion

Wow, big blow for Souths. GI has been hampered quite a bit the last two years. Could be a long road back for him, like Slater.

 

[Fozz]

Good job Maguire. Played 70 minutes with a season ending knee injury in a meaningless loss.

 

[Broncoman]

Poor guy

Thought it was disgraceful how they were letting him play on injured like that.

Big blow for Queensland too.

I still can't see Will Chambers throwing the first punch in yesterdays game.

 

[bazza]

Wow. Making a guy play on with an ACL injury even though the match was well and truly lost is extremely poor from the coach.

 

[Cult]

I wonder if playing on made it worse. Should Maguire face any consequences?

I can. He's a fiery player, not really one to take a backwards step IMO.

I don't doubt that he did, but watching the video I can't see where it happens.

OHHHH mate, apologies I totally misread your post. Thought you meant he's the type to back down from a punch.

Yeah agreed, that's a bullshit call and the fact the dogs got the penalty when it was Kasiano picking on the smallest bloke in Cronk was ludicrous.

 

[Unbreakable]

As far as I know once you've torn an ACL there's no additional damage you can really do to it, like if he came off the second it happened the diagnosis would still be the same. My guess is that he knew he'd done his ACL and wanted to stay out there and try and help the team win their first game before he went off, but it just never eventuated. I wouldn't be blaming Maguire, unless it comes out that Inglis wanted to come off.

**** me dead McGuire has to be held accountable for Inglis' injury
He refused to take him off

Inglis did want to come off
He had his hand up and all

Hand up doesn't mean he wanted to come off, that means he wanted to speak to a trainer.

 

[Nashy]

**** off, really?

He went off eventually. But it happened in the 1st, and he was back for the second. It was obvious enough from the moment it happened that it was bad, and his try confirmed it.

He also ran the ball, but was only able to run about 3 meters before he basically stopped and walked backwards. I thought the whistle had blown.

Yeah I was watching intently as he's in my SVRL team, I just couldn't of imagined it was as severe as that.
Seeing him fall over the try line was nothing short of depressing for someone of his status.

Leave Josh out of this.

Nah he was giving the I'm gone signal to the trainer
