Coutts Injury Rumour.....

[S5Blade]

From the usual, someone a friend works with, is a friend of coutts Family member who said...

That its actually an internal fracture of the bone and not a break, heals much faster and coutts could be as back as soon as 6-8 weeks. Something called a Greenstick fracture and why he didnt need surgery.

Might be bollocks, might not be, dont shoot the messenger

I hope you're right. Wilder's not one for mind games but, if teams think we're in the shit losing one of our best players for the season, just for him to return could give us a huge boost.

 

[Tunstall Fred]

I really hope this is correct,would be marvellous

 

[FinchleyBlade]

Look at the picture of his leg break, there is no way in hell he is back in 6-8 weeks from that.

How does this bit of medical science fit with the shots of his shin bending around Sordell’s boot?

I'd love it to true, but the wisdom of Google suggests that a Greenstick Fracture is of bones that are young:

A greenstick fracture is a fracture in a young, soft bone in which the bone bends and breaks. Greenstick fractures usually occur most often during infancy and childhood when bones are soft. The name is by analogy with green (i.e., fresh) wood which similarly breaks on the outside when bent.

Thought the same but apparently that was the analogy around his fracture, was splintered rather than snapped.

Lord Nelson returned to work half an hour after losing arm
Lord Horatio Nelson was giving orders 30 minutes after his arm was amputated, according to journals in the National Archive that illustrate the importance of medical skill in securing Britain's naval might.
That's the spirit up & at em Nelson probably never played in goal again though

 

[Chief_Froley]

Well his leg did a fuck load of bending on those pictures that's for sure.

 

[DifferentClass]

Remember when David Busst got a hairline fracture in his leg and was back playing three weeks later?

The photo isn't real, it was photoshopped by people who believe Sordell intended to take Coutts out as proof...

i thought a 'greenstick fracture' is what they call kids broken bones..when the bone is young and soft?

Seems highly unlikely:

"A greenstick fracture is a fracture in a young, soft bone in which the bone bends and breaks. Greenstick fractures usually occur most often during infancy and childhood when bones are soft. The name is by analogy with green (i.e., fresh) wood which similarly breaks on the outside when bent."

[Boxer Blade]

S5, if you had said he is out for at least a year I would have shot you followed by what do you know, load of bollocks, however I am now clinging to the fact coutts will be available to face the pigs, lifted my senses so to speak.

So that's why he wanted Hardy to kiss him

See my previous message, it was the anology used for the injury, more a splitting of bone than break, probably all bollocks of course but we live in one, one day one of these wank rumours will be proven AND I WILL BE THE ITK KING OF THE FORUM!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

Mebbes...

 

[Keef Chedwyn]

Adults can have greenstick fractures. Just means it breaks like a green stick, surprisingly.

Hope it's true what you've kindly passed on, S5Blade but it looked well snapped to me.

 

[SwissBlade]

Might be bollocks, might not be, dont shoot the messenger

No, it was definitely his leg. Hope this helps.

 

[Wapping Blade]

Mebbes...

Forum or Kafiristan?

 

[BushBlade]

Could well be true. I had one as a kid and had a pot on my arm for less than three weeks.

The photos don't really show much. It can often look much worse in a single shot. How many people have seen a photo of an actual leg being broken, other than that, to compare with? A broken leg can be anything from a crack in the bone to a complete break with the bones penetrating the flesh and sticking out.

 

[blade too long]

was on radio that it was the analysis that came back is the lesser evil
its like they used to bend wood to make boat hulls
his leg bent round his foot, he could curtail his time out quite considerably ,plus he will be sea worthy

Coutts shinpads must be made fom Titanium !!

He's Scottish. His legs are stronger than titanium.
