Nineteen Canteen Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Does anyone know how he is recovering from his injury from last season and expected date he may be considered for selection? Looked a very bright prospect for the brief time that we saw him and had some much needed pace and strength on the ball as well. Given Lallana's star is rapidly fading and question marks over Thomson we badly need McLaggon back and to interchange with Mellis if possible who also showed some nice touches and movement yesterday. First half we were far more productive down the left than the right where we were to casual and lacked purpose. I think McLaggon can do a far better job. Given up on Lee Holmes who seems to be collecting more sick notes than Darren Powell use to - what's the ongoing saga with Holmes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Gutted for him really, I think he'd be getting a fair few appearances up front alongside Lambert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70's Mike Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Think his reputation is growing by not playing, being built up to a level he may not be able to achieve instantly. when will we learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayne looks an exciting prospect and the little I have seen from him he seems to have the ability to address the pace and imagination issues many have spoken about.

dubai_phil Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Strange, I thought it was Kyle McLaggon. Shows how little I know these days. Hopefully one plus side of his injury could be that he was spared the over-exposure and pain of last season, and with careful handling this year by professionals his development can procede in a way that he can become the finished article much quicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skintsaint Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 think we are expecting too much from him when he recovers.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsland Codger Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Does anyone know how he is recovering from his injury from last season and expected date he may be considered for selection? Given up on Lee Holmes who seems to be collecting more sick notes than Darren Powell use to - what's the ongoing saga with Holmes? Kayne's profile page on the OS says he was injured in February and is out until September. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/ProfilesDetail/0,,10280~46142,00.html But the Injuries & Suspension page on the OS is more pessimistic predicting a return in October/November. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/Suspensions/0,,10280,00.html No mention of Lee Holmes on that page.

nathan Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 I'm confised. Who was the small nippy winger who played a few games towards the end of last season? I thought his name was Kyle McLaggon? I'm presuming this isn't the same bloke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krissyboy31 Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 This thread also got me thinking about Jack Boyle. He signed on a short-term contract ( until June '09). He was apparently offered a new permanent contract in March, when Parry Paterson and Mills were but nothing confirming that on his OS profile page. On the HCDAJFU listing he is in the Academy Squad (no number) list, with his contract not yet renewed. he OS however, lists him No.30. Saw him in the second-half of the Cheltenham friendly and thought he looked quite useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintsforlife7 Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Think he is back doing some light running at the moment, so mid-September is not looking too far off for him and I think he would be a perfect option from the bench if not to chase Lamberts flick ons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpturner Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Kayne ruptured his Achilles in February. Curtis Davies ruptured his in March. I ruptured mine on 30th June. I have just been discharged after 8 weeks and have started physio, but I only have to worry about returning to normality (walking, golf, 5-a-side maybe). These guys have to return to professional sport which is a different kettle of fish. Curtis Davies was expected to be out until October but managed an hour of football at the end of July and as far as I know is back to normal already (5 months approximately). Kayne obviously hasn't progressed that quickly, but I think the OS has him targetting September for a comeback. ATRs are a terrible injury to get over - especially for professional athletes. Physical repair aside, they have the mental aspect of being 100% confident that it will not rerupture during training or a game. I look forward to seeing him again soon.

Viking Warrior Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 your slow 19c I started a thread a few weeks ago (early August) about Kayne Its good to see he has started training again, I was reallly impressed with him as a player, was soory whren he sustaines his archillies injury. far better than dyer in my opinion and will be an exciting addition to the team once fully fit and maintains his potential. The futures bright the futures red and white Just to recap he has started training again and is a good couple of weeks into his training, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing are lack of creativity and strength on the ball on Saturday it just set me thinking and pleased to here he is doing well - provided I am not bigging up one of our current players!
