haz Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 (edited) McNamara with another 2 goals, including the winner in injury time. GOAT. Looks like she did her ACL. Heart breaking considering the recent Tillies call up. Edited November 19, 2023 by haz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 Same knee? If so , isn't that career-ending? Is it my imagination or are injuries in football occurring more frequently than previously? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence the government, teh AFL, the NRL are funding research as to why and how to prevent it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's time for sport to remember that men and women are actually built differently? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't explain ACLs. I should have noted that women's tennis doesn't suffer the same problems, it appears that only contact sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that women have been playing various sports for a long time, but now these contact sports are played at a much higher level of physical demand.

Netball is notorious for knee and ankle injuries and I think you'll find the same with tennis. Saying that men's sport are the same, just look at Leckie and Nabbout and Suleymani for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the rate in women's contact sport is greater than in men's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually looked up a report by Yale University says depending on the sport women are up to 2 to 8 times more likely to suffer an ACL. They attribute it to a few things: different pelvic floor, less mass surrounding knee than men, and a more knee then men. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
