Liam Kelly out until the new year, looks like Stevenson will be a regular starter now

The new year?

That's good isn't it. It's only three weeks away!!!

Wouldn't be surprised if Kelly was going to play, albeit on and off, but that Stevenson has shown up and put in decent performances and now Robins believes he can carry us through until Kelly's full return from injury.

Yep - 6 weeks - bit of a blow, but it's important to get him properly healed (no pun intended). One or two can fill in, and should give us more attacking initiative. Important Doyle stays fit. As well as Stevenson, Vincenti can play inside, as can Shipley - several options.

A heel injury is a strange one, are there muscles that can be torn or has he stood on an upturned plug?

It's sensible Kelly gets fully fit for the hard months to come from January
Stevenson will thrive alongside Doyler with Haynes and Grimmer either side
Doyle's praise for Bayliss in recent days was interesting too, talking about his size, physicality and confidence
I think it could be interesting times for us
Young hungry players out to prove themselves backed up by the likes of Doyle, McDonald, Davies, the Duke, Biamou etc. who won't let them be bullied out of the game
I fancy the Tasmanian Devil twins (the DKE's) will play a big part too

Yeah, but that's just one player.

Apparently had a scan...and something obviously showed up in it.

Why wasn’t the foot scanned earlier?

Makes a change for us to have some decent backup!

Only downside is that Stephenson bound to play brilliantly to his potential and attract suitors in January window....

It might be a plantar fascia, for you uneducated types who don't know what I mean it's a tough and flexible band of tissue that runs under the sole of the foot. It connects the heel bone with the bones of the foot, and acts as a kind of shock absorber to the foot.

Sudden damage, or damage that occurs over many months or years, can cause tiny tears (microtears) to develop inside the tissue of the plantar fascia. This can cause the plantar fascia to thicken, resulting in heel pain.

The surrounding tissue and the heel bone can also sometimes become inflamed.

Oh.

You shouldn't have said new year then and should have been more specific!! ;)

6 weeks is bad news. If Stevenson or Doyle gets injured, what then?

Not been impressed at all by Maycock so far.
Shipley natural CM

It bloody hurts and takes ages to wear off. I refrained from using heal deliberately.

I have had a heel injury for over a year, acute tendonopothy i think it is called. Physio and prescribed stretches haven't fixed it and haven't been able tonrun properly for the duration due to sharp stabbing pain i get in the side of the foot and in the heel itself. It's due to inflamation and then deterioration of the tendons linking the achilles to the foot via the heel. Bloody hurts and no sign of it getting better. If Kelly has something similar then "6 weeks" could be optimistic.

In one tough hard 50/50 tackle back in the days when I played regularly and men were proper men ,and we finished the game whatever,I didn't know till after the game that I had broken both legs, dislocated both my hips ,ruptured my spleen, lacerated my liver and fractured my neck, and I still played in the next game.
Big wosses these days

you're very modest Rev, not mentioning the 12 hour night shift you did down the pit in between games - proper man.

I feel your pain - I have had a tendonopathy in my knee for nearly 6 months now, utterly detilibiltating and gets inflamed and time I try to run . Not a pleasant injury!

I had tendonopothy where the knee meets the hamstring. I'm a quick healer and it took me 8 weeks to recover.

I had something like this in the 90's my football coach said it was probably my trainers aggravating the Achilles so I changed trainers and after a while it just stopped hurting

I damaged my plantar fascia out of the Wheatsheaf pissed up on Boxing Day a couple of years back, I really struggled for a few weeks. It doesn't show up on x ray but the pain on mine was not on the heel as such
