Bugger.

Will give us a boost when he comes back later in the season.

Massive chance for one of the young lads now.

I find it quite bizarre that a player, who breaks an ankle during a game, goes to hospital the following day in a team mates car... only to find the ankle is broken and needs pinning.. it was probably around 20 hours between the injury and the hospital visit..

Is would appear, on the face of it, to be a very poor evaluation from the medical staff on match day.

And you base all of that on a "tweet"?

yes

Bad news that, hopefully he will return back to his best. I'd like to see Cooper brought back sooner rather than later, as we will miss Carvells go forward in the pack.

Gutted for you and Carvell, its a shame he seems to have picked up so many injuries throughout his career, cracking player but i think with a bit more luck on the injury front he could have been regarded as one of the best around.

could it?

Out for up to 3 months comfirmed

Also says in the article about VA being out with a broken toe due to a "weightlifting accident" anyone else think its a bit silly weight training in flipflops?

Not confirmed that this is how its happened but the amount of times ive seen the guys in Total Fitness in flip flops it was bound to happen.

If a weight falls on you it doesn't really matter what you've got on your feet, unless it's steely enders.

Doesnt it just say a weight dropped his foot. Doesnt mean he was weight lifting?

He is out for 3 months. He could have been out for 6 months. That would have been worse so yes, it could have been worse.

Skysports reports it was a Weight Training accident, i just put two and two together from a vague report and my own experience, though like i say it hasnt been confirmed as such.

I`d prefer to look at the positive, we`ll get a fresh, and raring to go Gareth Carvell back for the most important part of the season. We should make the play offs no problem, its what we do in the play offs that matters and to have a fresh forward back with his pace will be a big plus.

Vinnie out with a broken toe...... see BBC sport.

i love a bit of brea......

actually forget it.

If Carvell has a leg broken badly enough to require 3 months out, why was he messing about being driven to appointments by Richie Mathers?

Why wasn't he off to hospital on gameday for treatment in an ambulance?

i thought that as well.... not very professional... you would think a break would be treated immediately.

It's quite common with serious injuries like this for full diagnosis and then treatment to not take place immediately and sometimes there can be several days delay. Often swelling needs to be allowed to reduce. The club has well qualified and experienced medical staff so I'm sure there is no reason to doubt the steps taken between the injury occuring and him seeing a consultant.

Hilarious.

Time to call up a few from leigh who are on dual registration?

I dunno, look at Arsenal. Fabregas was taken from the ground by an ambulance to Arsenal's private clinic of choice. No messing, no hobbling around waiting for Richie Mathers to turn up to take him into A&E at Warrington general.

And Carvell's is obviously far more serious given the duration quoted for his time out.
