    Elsom Out

    Elsom out of Tahs clash with Blues

    April 04, 2008 NEW South Wales have suffered a major blow with star flanker Rocky Elsom ruled out of Saturday night's crucial Super 14 match against the Blues with a leg injury.

    Elsom has torn a quad muscle in his left leg and faces up to six weeks on the sidelines.

    His withdrawal has forced coach Ewen McKenzie to move lock Dean Mumm to the back row, with Will Caldwell coming into the second row for the Waratahs' must-win encounter at the Sydney Football Stadium.

    AAP

    I feel bad- I was joking about getting the Blues to 'break' Rocky before next week. I guess I'm shopping for a new back rower for the fantasy team.

    Thats a tough brake. I'll have to change my tip from Blues by 10 to Blues by 20

    I'm just looking forward to see Lote's goal kicking

    It hurts like a bastard at first. I did one years ago sprinting. Thought someone had shot me

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    I got home in the 23rd min saw the tahs had scored a try, did Lote attempt the conversion?
