[url=http://www.wiganwarriors.com/WContent.aspx?id=4665&type=1Done his Posterior Cruciate Knee Ligament and is out for around 8 weeks[/url

Glad the club has informed the fans as early as possible.

Wishing Famous Amos a speedy recovery!

Shortest estimated recovery time for a cruciate knee injury that I can remember.

its not the anterior cruciate though, thats the 9 month one. posterior isn't as serious.

Thank God!

Phew. What a relief. Glad it isn't as serious as well feared. At least he is back this season.

Good news on Tommy. He should be alright after a couple of weeks.

I don't think it's right to be this happy about someone being out for 8 weeks...
Loads better than first expected. Hope he's playing again soon

Gotcha.

Thank god



I cant see us missing him for the rest of this month at least with the fixtures we have. Hope hes back in time for Saints at home

I wouldn't be all that surprised to see him back a bit earlier to be honest. Not a lot, maybe a week or two.

glad its not broken and we will have famous back for june ish hopefully!

some good news realy . we will certainly miss him, hopefuly phelps will come in and stay fit. we have some depth in the back line. Ainscough can be brought back also. im confident we will be ok over next month or so

Good news but I was hoping more towards the 6 week mark to be honest. From what I know about Amos he will certainly keep himself fit while he is out as best he can...

... and drink loads of caramel latte's

8 weeks away counting this week ends when we play Castleford, so he could be back for Wakefield the week after...ironic

So glad its not a break, his stats this year speak for itself. Meanwhile we still have players like Phelps, Pat, Goulding, Ainscough. Good times.

When he says he knows, he really does know.
Just as when Clifford post the team, he knows.

Doubting Thomas's please take note.

I can't remember *EVER* being this pleased to hear that one of our players will be out for 8 weeks with cruciate ligament damage and that another might miss this week with a badly bruised foot.

I know that I shouldn't be celebrating these injuries, but oddly I find myself doing exactly that, with a HUGE smile on my face today.

See you soon (F)Amos - Much sooner than we were expecting.

still a bad injury tho i know loads of lads whos had this injury and its as good or some times worse than break but i hope he recovers well like it says on the site they will find out today wht rehab he needs could come out that it might take longer than 8 weeks , i dont know how they can say 8 weeks when they only look at this today

He may well have been banned for 8 weeks for eye gouging anyway

Do you mean because everyone has been blinded by his awesomeness!!!!!

Thanks Rogues!



PS

He had another scan late last night and they are still awaiting the results as of 2pm today.
There is still the possibility that it could require surgery rather than let Mother Nature take it's course but I am led to believe the 8 weeks is the Longer of the estimates if surgery is needed (That's back in training BTW not actually playing!).

PPS

Boy have I got a couple of good snippets for you! Give us a ring when you have a minute!

Good news then. Nice one Jukesays.

Keep us updated

Out of order!!!!!

Saw him in Starbucks before. I think he was with his Mum.

Didnt someone see him there yesterday too? Is he working there in his 8 week lay off or something
