I suspect the severity of any soft tissue damage in and around his ankle will be a factor in his recovery. Hopefully it's not too bad, and Erik will be fit and up to speed before the play-offs. When i broke my fib, tib and ankle, it was the severe ligament and soft tissue damage that concerned my surgeon the most. Orthopaedic surgery has come a long way since the 80's though...

I would have thought all your potions and remedies  would have sorted that out !!!

It was over 30 years ago when i was a young un, so everything healed up fine eventually. They left my fibula separated after they surgically rebroke the bones a year after the accident, gave me a bone graft and plated my tibula. Six months after that the plate started to bend and fractured the bone, so back in plaster i went again. Spent a total of 15 months in plaster. Fun times...

The Fibula is not a primary weight bearing bone, so Erik could possibly be back much sooner than some people think. Mine has been broken since 1981, and it never affected my ability to participate in various sports...

I fractured mine and i was off work for 12 weeks.

Riss and Starke out gives us 10.74 to play with.

 

Rowe in on 3.27 and bring in a European rider on a 7? Or Chris Holder?

Why on earth would we want to bring Rowe back into the fold at this stage of the season for someone like starke.

for whatever reason clearly doesn’t want to be riding for Ipswich in the uk atm

whereas starke gives his absolute all for the club every race start to finish

Starke is riding again.  He will be at reserve in August, so should be able to score a few points.  Batchelor, Barker*, Starke & Hume will be able to take R/R rides for Riss.

*Barker was unbeaten at Plymouth on Tuesday night, but withdrew before their meeting at Oxford on Wednesday as "unfit to ride" ...

Random tests for riders at Oxford tonight believe one rider failed hence “officials withdrawing rider from the meeting!” That was the wording at the stadium. Sure there will be an announcement in the next few days.
