Can anyone who attended the bays internal trial confirm or deny if Brett Backwell injured his knee over the weekend ?

My mail is that he is having scans today / tonight and it may not be good news.

Sorry Guys - he DID hurt himself - best case is 4 weeks and worst is the season, the outcome is meant to be known this evening

No worries. He can simply amputate the leg. At the very least he'll get another gig on Letterman. 8)

More scans today, but not quite as bad as first feared - unlikely to play until round 3 or 4.

CH9 news suggested "bone separation at the knee".

Its OK, Im just helping out my friends at the Bay, last year I predicted them to be bottom and they finished 6th.
If I tip them to just miss out on the finals again they'll probably end up in a Prelim! :wink:

That is truly astounding.

Not the severity of the injury, but the fact that SANFL news got reported on channel 9.

So they've covered the loss of Gibbs, eh?
