What's the go with Kitey?

[COMMANDER]

Not on the NRL casualty list and missing again this weekend, but official Manly site says :

"Brent Kite has also been ruled out as he tries to overcome a pectoral tear."

If he has a torn pec wouldn't that be it for him at Manly?

 

[wombatgc]

I hope not. He deserves a beautiful Sunday arvo Brookie farewell.

 

[Killer03]

Torn Pec?? Holy crap, isn't that like a 2 to 3 month lay off?

Would love Kitey to be seen off in a way that is befitting for him. I don't think he'll ever quite get the plaudits he deserves. But I've always believed in years where Kitey (and Snake) has been at his best, we win comps.

 

[Garts]

If it is a torn pec his Manly playing days are over. Tragic if true.

 

[COMMANDER]

Hopefully the description of the injury is incorrect.

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Bicep was the word last weekend

 

[Shoe1]

Depends if it's a tear off the ligament/bone, or just a tear in the muscle part. I don't remember him leaving the field in pain 2 weeks back so hopefully it's the latter.

 

[mickqld]

Sounds like it is a minor tear that may take a couple of weeks to get over. If it was major he'd be operated on and gone.

g'day all,I heard gould say in commentary a couple of weeks ago that he was playing with an injury,and that he shouldnt of been playing at all but i thought he said it was his wrist,mind you i'd had a few by then and maybe he said chest but he knew something was up.
cheers mike

 

[Ceagle]

Thought it was a bicep injury he was carrying?

Yeah, I heard that too and yes it was a Friday night so I'd had a few also but Gus definately said wrist.

You can probably understand the reason Phil Gould doesn't want him playing injured

 

[HappilyManly]

Had a look at the end of the Souths game, Kitey had both wrists heavily bandaged.
He may have strained them lifting weights

In the Warriors game he only had the right wrist bandaged:huh:

Hope Kitey has a chance to leave with some more bling this year

 

[Sheikheagle]

The great man just confirmed on game plan that he will be playing saturday.

 

[ALinda]

The great man just confirmed on game plan that he will be playing saturday.

Yep, and he confirmed he's had a "good" bicep injury rather than a "bad" one.

g'day all,Does that mean the hero is in,or we still talking about kitey?
cheers mike

 

[Mals]

The great man just confirmed on game plan that he will be playing saturday.

All but confirmed... the Landcruiser had to leave a bit of mystery around his selection... Tooves would have been pleased he didn't straight out say "yes I will be playing".

 

[MissKate]

and how will the scum players target this injury I wonder

and how will the scum players target this injury I wonder

The grubs will be working on wrist twists as we speak, and just to be sure, a few bicep crushes, and a pec chicken scissor gouge with half pike!

Force him to do curls and chin ups
