Any truth in the rumour that he is out for 6 - 8 weeks?

That's what those at the airport with Saints are saying. Not great news. Seems quite likely, he hasn't been having it easy since he got back.

Would any injury from the game have been properly assessed so quickly?

Nobody will know for certain about Walsh for at least a week. He'll be in Crank hospital on Monday for inspection and scans then they often lead to other tests. It would be very difficult for a doctor to diagnose accurately so quickly. All we can say for certain is that Walsh isn't happy with how his ankle is at the moment.

One good thing is he'll be here next year then?

He flew into Stansted late last night

Well at least his wings are working then.

Question is, was his landing gear...

Saints have confirmed on Twitter that Luke had minor ankle surgery this morning and the club will say more tomorrow.



It isn't a new injury. It's the injury to his ankle which happened at the same time as his leg break.



Rumour is 6 to 8 weeks out.

If Hewitt is ever going to get a game for the first team, surely it'll be this weekend against York.

From the look of it Hewitt hasn't been willing to swear Omerta-style loyalty to the Godfather and has paid the price.



Doubt we'll see him again. Alive.
