When I did mine, the doctor at the hospital took one look at me and said “snowboarder?”. Apparently a very common injury for snowboarding as it happens when you fall forward and put your hands out to brace yourself as you land. If the angle is just so - crack. Also happens a lot for older folks when they trip and fall forward. I didn’t need surgery luckily, but it’s a bugger of an injury.
Then again, I don’t have superpowers like Patrick Ambrose, so he might be ok sooner than I was.

“Every injury is different, but Carlton’s Jarrod Pickett is expected to be sidelined for up to three months after he fractured his scaphoid at training last week.” - http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-03-20/new-injury-sees-dons-defence-woes-worsen
Especially when they’re saying 12 for Pickett.
Every problem is just an opportunity in disguise, and this is just the opportunity that um checks notes, looks at crossed off names, checks notes again, mutters “that can’t be a real name”, shrugs Zerk-Thatcher has been waiting for.
Hartley is the luckiest footy player going around. continues to get games because of injuries.
I’d settle for a leak at this stage. It’s the raging torrent that I’m concerned about.
