HMac out for the year

[roo boys!]

Opted to have LARS surgery on his knee (getting a synthetic graft to replace his PCL). Should be back for the start of pre-season in an attempt to get another full pre-season under his belt and be fit and firing 2013.

will he be at the roos next year, a fantastic player and a better person but I dont want him messing up goldstiens progress.

[Capper]

wow, all from a specky that he didnt need to take.

He will be lucky to make it back in time for the pre-season. Usually the taller guys that get this done takes a bit longer. Even Esky is still having problems veery now and then

Hard to tell. If you listen to the club they are adamant that he'll be at the Roos next year and into the future, and this injury may well lower his value on the market, thus making it seem more and more likely we'll keep him.

Hmac has had a cruel run with injury and has pretty much ruind his career imo north will keep him for the long run al partner up with goldstien

That's what they seem keen to do, hopefully they can work a bit better together in the future. I'm sure they can.

Hmac was training again today.

Seriousley if this form continues untill the end of the year how can they really select him?
Goldy, petrie, tarrant, hansen (not holding my breath on him yet)

Dnt see a spot for him... ??

[roo boys!]

Where did you find this out about him training today?

Anyway I doubt he'd get a look in this year with them all functioning so well, you wouldn't risk anything at this stage of the year.

[Ziplock]

I seriously think they're going try to use him as trade bait, probably to the cats and try to get a forward or back out of it.

[roo boys!]

We thought the same thing last year, could have lost a bit of value this season with the injuries/age.

Brayshaw said on the radio they kept hom through loyalty, hes contracted till the end of 2013 im pretty sure.

Rooboys: he tweeted:

@HMcintosh01: Nice to be back at training with the boys

@HMcintosh01: @the_trademarc had surgery all went well so just starting my rehab mate

[roo boys!]

Ahh ok. Won't be available for selection this year you wouldn't think, it's just rehab work. They came out as soon as he opted for surgery that they are looking towards 2013 pre-season already.
