McLeod out 3-4 weeks



(From afc.com.au)
Andrew McLeod could miss two games after having his right knee cleaned out.
And in other injury news, forward Trent Hentschel will be sidelined for about three weeks by an ankle sprain.
McLeod, who is four matches short of his 300-game milestone, had an arthroscopy on Monday night. He will rest this week, start some bike work next week and then should be ready to run in two weeks.
Crows head doctor Andrew Potter said: �At this stage we expect Andrew to be ready to play in about a month. He will certainly miss the Geelong game (Friday week) and probably also the Collingwood match (round 15) but that will depend on when he can get back to full training."
Hentschel sprained his left ankle playing in the SANFL on Saturday. He will be on crutches until the weekend.
But ruckman Ivan Maric has been cleared of internal damage to his left knee and remains a chance to be fit to play against Geelong at AAMI Stadium next week.

The Wakefield Sports Clinic is a multi-disciplinary clinic, providing sports medicine services for the prevention and treatment of sports injuries.  The practitioners include:

We work together to assist active people (of any level) in having a safe and easy return to sport.

A doctor's referral is not necessary for primary treatment by our Sports Doctors, Physiotherapists or other practitioners.  However, a doctor's referral will be required to see an orthopaedic surgeon. 

At the Wakefield Clinic, 270 Wakefield St Adelaide, we are lucky to have access to radiology and pathology services on-site.  This enables us to organise your scans and blood tests in one convenient location.

The Wakefield Sports Clinic also provides an acute injuries service on Saturdays and Sundays during the peak seasons (April - September).  Sports Doctors assess fractures, sprains, strains or ruptures and can schedule follow-up appointments with an orthopaedic surgeon the following Monday if required.  These conveniences certainly reduce waiting times!

Alternatively the team doctor or general practitioner can refer directly to the specialist Orthopaedic Surgeons within the Clinic.  Physiotherapists, Sports Trainers, Teachers and First-Aiders can make use of pre-printed injury communication pads available from Wakefield Sports Clinic reception.
