Noah Balta - Welcome to Tigerland

I think the worst part is.......he may have done his ACL and be out for 12 months. That's most of next year shot too.

This whole year has been one big cluster *smile*

Does Noah have problems with his eyesight? Ran under flight of the ball a lot and constantly fumbled
Hope his injury isn’t serious
The problem is upstairs, but I don't think it's the eyes - if you catch my drift.

ACL yikes, didn’t see that coming. Before that tho, I kept thinking how far he had regressed. But tonight just got so much worse.
 
What a *smile* way to do your ACL. Fumbled it about 10 times before he did it. If he was cleaner he doesn’t injure himself.

Dropped about 6 easy marks and then fumbled twice resulting in the knee injury. Horrible horrible night.
 
The injury is a tragedy but like many Noah's been incredibly patchy this season. He was right off before he went down last night.
Hope he knuckles down on his rehab & gets back to 100% for the start of next season.

I know he will need scans, but is an ACL what the richmond medics are saying, or just speculation?
 
Honestly didn't look like an ACL type incident to me. Looked like a knock to front of the knee. Here's hoping anyway.
ACL PCL he has damaged his knee.
He won't be back this year.
The fumbling cost him big time.

Too early to say but with 8 rounds to go probably best to wrap him up in cotton wool. With all the continuing injuries, making the 8 is going to be a challenge.
