Five-eighth Mat Rogers injured himself just before fulltime, crashing onto his head after he lost his balance trying to catch a Lockyer bomb.

thats the last sentence in the article however

Bugger, likewise hope he is ok, you never like to see those type of incidents in sport.

Blimey that's awful. I hope he's alright.

talking to a friend in qld. in a lull during the dogs v knights game they said he was taken to hospital for scans

Yes he walked off the field and apparently the scans are a precaution. Certainly not a broken neck, but hopefully no minor fractures either.

The Titans and Broncos match was epic.

Lucky man..hope the scans give him the all clear of any long term neck trauma.

[Burgs]

Certainly a heavy landing. Went up in classic Rogers style in the gathering pack on his own try line, had his legs bumped a little (nothing untoward) and landed upside down on the right side of his head.
Was out of play immediately but walked off after a few minutes stoppage and looked fine. Not saying there may not be a fracture, with his injury history he should have a fairly high pain threshold, but his head isn't hanging off etc.
Very lucky man, in that situation anyway...
Would be most dirty that while he was on his back the Broncos scored the sealer!

Broncos, not Brumbies That was an EPIC match - I'm in Brisbane right now so I got all the hype beforehand too.

Hope Mat's OK.

A classic case of backing the wrong horse...or posting when tired
