    Fúck, looks serious

    looks like he went over on his ankle


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,548 ✭✭✭rockbeast


    Healy the filthy fool could be in trouble if he was biting

    don't think he'll have to worry about it now

    Healy's gone, you could hear him screaming as the WF player landed on his leg.

    Yeah, his knee is twisted in that tackle, looks & sounded awful

    Thats so unfortunate, he would have started Lions test IMO

    Traditionally, they play Australia A or Australian Barbarians on the tour. The Barbarians game was a sponsor thing, I'm sure. It would be much better to play a game in UK/Ireland in a packed stadium against Argentina or France.
    ARU turned down Australia A and Aussie Babas. I don't think its a good idea at all to play a full strength test team as a warm up.

    looks like ankle ligaments, could be lengthy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Would have been anyway if he was done for the bite. Back to driving his stupid hummer now around dublin

    Stay classy

    Seems so unfair that Healy's only real serious injury would come on a Lions tour


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,892 ✭✭✭spank_inferno


    So sorry for Cian. You could hear his cry on TV.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    Looks like a broken leg to me, it folded awkwardly under him.

    Disastrous from Sexton-BOD. Sexton fired it way too hard but BOD still should have taken it.

    Seriously, calling out mistakes as they happen does not make you a great expert in the game, these things happen to the best of them of which Sexton and BOD are.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,973 ✭✭✭19543261


    Devastated for Healy

    in other news, North is some carrier.

    Genuinely gutted. Huge loss for the Lions and crushing blow for himself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Jenkins will need plenty gametime to get up to speed, he's undercooked and has a calf injury.

    If it had been Hartley there's be 3 threads about it by now!:pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,636 ✭✭✭✭Tox56


    Real shame, good thing is he's only 25, he'll be back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭Plazaman


    Crap, thats the tour finished for him so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭stackerman


    What is it with the fecking biting ?!

    GAA, Soccer, and now Rugby

    Lengthy bans all round is the only answer. Worse then spitting !

    Feel very sorry for Healy though, crappy way to end a tour (looks like).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,663 ✭✭✭Cork24


    Joint in the Angle is he injury,,

    Coming from the Aussie TV


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    I could care less about this game now. Just no more injuries please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭mohawk


    The amount of injuries picked up on Lions tours. It really looks like Healys tour is over! Horrible to see a player wheeled off the pitch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,784 ✭✭✭Superbus


    He's 25, he'll be there in 2017. Massive shame though, for himself and the team.

    That's presuming it's as bad as it looks.

    Sickening sound, really feel for him as thats going to be a long lay off. Could very well have broken the leg and done the ligaments. When you hear someone like that scream it can't be good.

    "Well, yeah, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,648 ✭✭✭vkid


    Who was biting who?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,663 ✭✭✭Cork24


    nice try


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,258 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    I could care less about this game now. Just no more injuries please.

    As I said before the game, a one point win and a clean bill of health would be far more preferable to a 50 point win. To lose one of the almost guaranteed test players in the first game on Australian soil is a massive blow. Will be a replacement called out, I assume but still a huge loss. Vunipola now to be in the test 23.

    Healy on Sheehan (that's what is alleged anyway)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭stackerman


    SOB will find it hard to nail a place, tough comp in back row. Doing a great job so far though ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,557 ✭✭✭Heroditas


    Poor guy. Hopefully it's not too serious.
    I wouldn't have been surprised if he'd missed the first month or two of next season anyway due to an operation to clear up any other issues he's been having for the last while, e.g. his shoulder.

    Sheehan accused Healy of biting him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    BOD should have finished that first time around, didn't back himself for the corner. Awful match, hope Healy's alright but looked bad


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,616 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    Croft loves scoring on lions tours.

    Especially to lose him to such a nothing game.

    It's gutting. But spare a thought for the Aussies, they have been fairly devastated too.

    Roberts & BOD nailed down for the first test. Tualagi runs sideways, or else into things. No subtlety whatsoever.

    Leigh Halfpenny has immaculate positional sense, world class FB that guy.

    SOB tearing it up and looks to have developed an offload too

    gonna be some scrap for the backrow spots

    Alleged by?

    Edit: just read a previous post


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,816 ✭✭✭Tigerandahalf


    Time for Corbiseiro. He could end up in the test team. Healy would have been weak enough in scrum. Sad for him though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,663 ✭✭✭Cork24


    Nice Really Nice Kick


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭Plazaman


    I could care less about this game now. Just no more injuries please.

    I'll second that, theres 4 more games before the first test I do beleive.
