Injury Woe As White’s Season Set To End
March 29, 2009 by Paul Mc
Salford City Reds miserable weekend got worse with the news that winger Paul White could be set to miss the rest of the season after less than one full appearance this term. White, last season’s top scorer with 30 tries, played his first engage Super League game for the Reds today (Sunday) against Hull KR and scored in the first minute, but his knee gave way later on in the game and now Reds’ medical staff fear the worst for thespeedy Yorkshireman.
“I think we have seen the last of Paul White for the season but took a calculated risk on playing him. We had to find out if his knee would stand up. We suspect the knee has gone completely and may need reconstruction,” said Head Coach Shaun McRae after the 48-12 defeat at Craven Park.
Former Saints junior Dean McGilvray and England star Richie Myler also picked up injuries that mean that there will be a busy recovery session for the Salford backroom staff in the morning.
unreal how could the you take a chance on someone who was injured and who was the only good winger we have.now were back to square one
He’s been training for weeks with no problems. It’s one of those things, coming back from injury you are always at the highest risk.
Paul White was passed by the medical staff as ready.
Best of luck to Paul White here’s hoping we see him back in action in 2010 in a Reds shirt.
Salford will be back lets stick together and go forward. No surrender.
SALFORD, keep going forward, NO surrender lads,tackle your hearts out and back each other up.
