So does Dal just have a really bad corkie?

Post: # 1002509Post saintsRrising »

Looking at the replay...that is one big dark bruise on the back of his hammy...which you can see when he bends over and that part of his leg is revealed from his skinns.

I could easily imaging thata really bad corkie would stop him from stretching out with that leg.

If so, let's hope it will be much better by this Saturday.

Be a win for us if it was only that. But seems to be something muscular worrying him

What a bonus it would be if we can get him dancing through traffic saturday

Bruise is on his right leg yet he's been kicking a lot more with his right leg.

On OWaaT Ross said that Dal went to him during the game and said, "I'm 100%".

Ross also commented that it perhaps mentally that he was unable to let go and go full tilt which he said was common when you had a concern about the hammie. He said this was the case with Dal, especially early. Maybe scared of ripping it if pushes too hard.
Ross expecting better this week.
