How long does an MCL take to recover?

Depending on the severity, a couple of weeks.

I did one recently as well as a full ACL rupture

New found empathy for any player returning from an ACL. The mental side of things is the toughest… the idea of jumping into a side step again to me is terrifying now haha

"Peter Lang is the Barry Toohey of Panthers"

This should be the theme of a novel.

Undercover NRL Narcs.

Sorensen has been out most the year, though, and it doesn't seem to have done much for Garner. I can't even think who else has been playing in the back row off the top of my head, but not sure Garner's been getting great minutes, bar a game or two?

Gutho or Lussick for 17th?
What a choice

Don't know how I'm managing it, but my Draft team seems to get slam-fucked each week by a late out or two. I've had Gagai all year and been stung by him a few times, amongst other. Taylan May last week too. Now Sorensen. I have Paulo on my bench, of the Junior variety, but 99% sure I didn't set him up as a MID reserve, which is stupid that you have to do it anyway, and it's not automated.

Gutho, I refuse that the answer is ever Lussick

I traded out Gutho this week and held Lussick so in line with that I'd be playing Lussick over Gutho for sure. Dude is completely shot. Wouldn't be surprised if this is the match he finally doesn't actually complete.

OR!

More likely, as I traded him out, he scores 87.

Cheese, May and possibly McInnes to deal with next week and not sure on any of the possibilities floating around(Bateman, Sorenson, Fainu, Nikora, Brailey). As I conclude this thought, I just remembered about Levi.

I have it from a very reliable source that Iro is GUARANTEED 40

You know, back in the day I was an undercover mod for Sportal.....before some of you whipper snappers had pubes and were learning to wank, like young 30 yo Rabbits is right now. His mum caught him last week in full flow with a People magazine. Mortified.

I convinced the slightly retarded fella who ran the site in Melbourne to give me all the mod privileges, but not put it under my name, so I could "sort the place out".

I was like the Wyatt Earp of Sportal. Fastest ban merchant on the interwebs. Cross me. Banned. Get a little bit mouthy. Banned. Argue more than I liked. Banned. Wrong politics. Banned...absolute mod heaven.

You got Teddy and Walker, of the Sam variety? Could probably wait even longer on Teddy now, but Walker will be a pick up next week if you're that way inclined. Still not sure I am - was actually hoping he'd go down quite a bit more so the appeal might be gone. But we'll see.

Who’s this Barry Toohey character? Is he anything like the Peter Lang for the Knights?

Asking for a mate

Thanks for the replies. So that gives us: 

Knights = Barry Toohey
Panthers = Peter Lang
Everyone else = @Tigs

my tv broke wrote:Lussick at 18 for me.

Still not sure if ill trade. Salmon to Fainu still looks likely but it feels like i still have too many lowmid's..

14-21 currently smithies piakura galvin finefeuaiki lussick salmon kiraz burbo

Terrell probably out next week. Not holding burbo for any reason other than no one worth cashing down to yet. Gray has gone ok but i still dont think 1 gray 4 latrell is better than 1 latrell

Perhaps i should think further beyond but i cbf

Cheese and lussick as hook combos is pretty ugly tho

Yeah, Lussick at 18 for me too. Did it last week and it worked well, so why not try again? Hoping he makes himself playable, though.

Top of the table clash in L1, going to be pretty tight

I think I’m content with Chans 35. If I did play piakura and he scored 40, I’d be over the moon rather than satisfied

If you don't think Piakura is capable of scoring 40 points you probably shouldn't trade him in

That’s a pretend ban with my newfound pretend mod powers
