Updated Injury Report

[WI8SecFan]

The PBR posted an updated injury report on their site today.

As was already posted Guilherme Marchi broke bone in his riding (right) hand and has been in in Brazil. He is listed as competing in Pueblo however. It will be interesting to see if it effects him and how bad. Mike White's leg was bruised the Des Moines, Iowa PBR Challenger Tour event but is also listed as competing in Pueblo.

Now for the really good news:Cory Rasch Keith Roquemore and Craig Sasse will all be returning to competition in Pueblo. Keith only missed part of Tulsa but it has been a while since we have seen Cory and Craig. It will be great to see them back in action.

Now for the bad news Rob Bell and Corey Navarre are still out with a broken collarbones. (I know they share a birthday but I wish they did not share injuries too!) Hopefully they will be able to return before the end of the season.

Tater Porter is still out with rib fractures. Last but certainly not least Zack Brown is still out although I read that he is not expected to return this season so it is not that surprising.


The good news is the list of riders out due to injury is shrinking. It looks like the break helped heal many of the riders it will be an interesting run to the finals!

Welcome back to the riders returning, quick recoveries to those still out, and safe rides that you may not appear on this report to all the other riders.

That might've been the shortest injury list I've seen in YEARS, literally. Good to see Rasch and Sasse back because I know how well they can ride (and how good would Rasch's season be if not for his injuries?). It's too bad the others can't come back (although, are Bell and Navarre still alternates or have they been cut again?) but let's wish them well - and hopefully sooner than later!

what a freaky ironic coincidence!
well i sure hope all these guys GET WELL SOON! #doctor#
It will be great to see the returning faces and its real nice seein' a SHORTER THAN EVER injury list. (be nicer to not see one at all... :
i also hope that guilherme heals soon cuz i know justin LOVES to win...but not when his his competitors are not 100%....its just not as sweet of a win. I know i wanna see the heated race with its kept drama. That goes for ALL the guys. No holdin back...theres no room for error. (kay im off in my inspiring high school football speech mind...lol)

I hope all the guys get better. I would like to see Zack ride this year but he needs to get healed up. God Bless

Yeah, I guess we must wait until next year for Zack, unfortunately. It was a horrifying wreck after all.

Apparently, according to the draws in Pueblo, CO, Tater Porter is in the draw against D&H's Dobber, though I thought the report said he'd be out with rib fractures. Guess he'll be all right - that or he'll try to ride through the pain. I hope he continues what he's been doing this season, and stay healthy to boot.
