Daniel Rioli - Qscan Injury Update

The Gold Coast SUNS can confirm Daniel Rioli has sustained a knee injury during a pre-season training session on Wednesday.

Rioli has undergone scans on the injury which confirm the 27-year-old has injured his medial collateral ligament (MCL) in his left knee.

The club will assess whether Rioli requires surgery over the next week, however he is expected to be running post-Christmas and be available for pre-season matches before Opening Round.

The club will provide further updates in the Qscan Injury Update as Rioli progresses.

Could have been worse.

According to Google

How long does an MCL strain take to heal?


A grade 1 (mild) MCL tear usually heals within one to three weeks. A grade 2 (moderate) MCL tear generally takes four to six weeks to heal with treatment. A grade 3 (severe) MCL tear can take six weeks or more to heal with treatment

Shame to see any player get injured, I still have a soft spot for Dan, he left us but he made sure we were very well treated in the trade.
