He could be out for at least 5 months !!!

I am now truely amazed by how well he dealt with the unjury when it happened, as although he looked in pain he didnt yelp like a gimp or cry like a poof.

I think it was the look of disbelief on his face more than anything.  The chap has had a nightmare season that he doesnt deserve.  

Pictures for thick people like me.

ouch

shame he had to bow out the tournament

Had this same injury about 18 months ago, nice that Owen has the medical staff to diagnose correctly and get on with treating him at least rather than the NHS telling me it was only a strain...  :x lol.

Tough injury to get over, but with the training/quality of surgery available these days, sure Owen will be back.
