He was taken directly to hospital for surgery after his horrific knee injury.
I doubt he'll be available any time this year. It'll be a very long road back for him. Those types of injuries end careers.
...and this is exactly why that hit JLD make on AE was such a scumbag move. It almost resulted in the exact same thing.
He Twisted his knee very bad and the prognosis to the extent of his injury, can only be given once the swelling goes down from surgery.
I missed how the injury happened, as my stream was down at that moment.
Was it Ruan Venter and was it a illegal blow?
Venter was involved
Was watching the game and saw Venter and other players close to him, and then the commentators gasped...so I figured it was a knee.
Couldn't bring myself to watch the slow-mo. Literally looked away from the TV...I can't stand to see people breaking bones or badly twisting joints out of place. Weird, cos i like combat sports, I know.
Geez a knee injury like that is horrible…. What a pity and he was really in good form.
I sincerely hope the guy will be back. For now this will change things personnel wise and leaves the door open for other candidates.
Agreed I had to turn my head away to - I can’t watch those injury replays
Let’s hope Elrigh makes a full recovery
Ruan Venter was involved but nothing malicious. Venter hurt Hanekom as well, in the chest area - Venter is a human wrecking ball
I always watch the replays !
