NSG Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 A quick google says that a “grade 3” turf toe is quite common in professional sportsmen and the average recovery time is 16 weeks, so would seem to correlate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like his normal foot and a hobbit foot or something Hearing his foot flew off and went so high it left the atmosphere. Should come back down to Earth around August somewhere in Kazakhstan. Very bad luck imo Edited January 12 by Joelinton7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Didn’t read the whole article but if that’s what Barnes has it sounds like it could affect his game going forwards. He was never an explosive player so hopefully not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

New member here, but as follower of rugby league in Australia and 'turf toe' is an injury that is not uncommon in league. Seems innocuous but puts players out for months. I remember losing one player for most a 26 week season to 'turf toe'. That's why I was so worried about Barnes. Hope I'm wrong and he's back soon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 3 hours ago, Gallowgate Toon said: I do seem to be getting more irrationality angry at the injured players, after each defeat Especially considering Barnes played in 66/76 PL games in the last two seasons for Leicester. No history of being a sick note but inevitably gets some weird toe injury that keeps him out five month when we pay big money for him, you couldn't write it.

timeEd32 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 1 hour ago, TRC said: Great so he's finished Nah, that article calls out some particularly bad outcomes. But looking at this list: “Already in 2021, bad toes have hampered Lions Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow, Raiders running back Josh Jacobs and Bucs wideout Scotty Miller. In the past few years, turf toe has derailed star players such as A.J. Green, Julio Jones and Davante Adams, as well as running backs James Conner, Phillip Lindsayand Antonio Gibson.“ - Ragnow has played all but two games the last two seasons. 2nd team All Pro this season. - Jacobs had the best year of his career in 2022 and had over 400 touches (that’s a lot) - Miller isn’t very good but he’s played almost every game the last two years - Davante Adams is still elite at age 31 - Julio Jones made four All Pro teams after it happened to him before getting old - James Conner has aged nicely for his position and been reasonably durable —— It’s a bad injury for sure, but it’s unlikely to be a death sentence.
