That looked painful.
Literally saw the leg bend... That's his season I guess...

Couldn't see from north stand. What happened? He got tackled and jumped in the air. Assume hamstring or something

Ankle, looked like it moved in a pretty unnatural direction,  Not a doctor but I would guess ligaments**

Really? It looked like the lower leg snapped to me. That's what the commentators suggested too

We could hear him screaming from row S of the east stand so I’d say he broke his leg.

I might have it wrong then.  From the replay I thought it was his ankle, Looked like it bent and he sort of sprung up!!  Whatever it is, I have a bad feeling we will not be seeing him for a long time

Gustard says in post-match interview that it's a 'severe knee injury' for Earle so presumably our until next season (Murley was dislocated elbow.)

Interestingly he then says those two have played a lot because of their 'attitude and willingness to learn'. He then immediately namechecks Walker, Visser, R. Chisholm and Ibitoye (in that order) saying 'we've got options and if someone sticks their hand up and says "pick me" then they're going to get picked.'

Implies strongly that attitude is why Walker and Visser haven't been picked so far...

That's a nightmare. Looked so innocuous

Could be a 6 month lay off that couldn’t it? Massive shame as he’s been excellent this season.

Poor guy. Having ruptured my ACL I can vouch for how painful and debilitating it is. I hope it is not as serious an injury as that.

I hope he comes back strong, he is a terrific player. Through all the ups and downs of this season he has been terrific. He has deserved every single selection and earned every single rest. He has always gone looking for work and has been powerful in attack and defence. His injury came from wanting to make a difference through the middle.

Good luck and best wishes Nathan.

ACL means out for the best part of 12 months. Cruel luck.

He really has been one of the standout players for Quins thus season, hopefully he is back quicker than thought.
