Asashosakari Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Must have been contagious - right knee ACL injury for Hokutokuni, suffered in his bout against Kokkai of all people, two weeks required. Return possible, says Hakkaku-oyakata.
Fukurou Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 It's after 2PM (JT) on Thursday. I suspect if Kokkai and/or Tamawashi were withdrawing from day 12, it would have been on the NSK site by now. I'm going to bed now. (watch - in the morning I'll find out one or both *did* withdraw from day 12...)
Kintamayama Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) Oops, there's Kokkai, heavily bandaged but he's there.. Lost, hopping on one leg, limping up the hanamichi. Edited January 19, 2012 by Kintamayama
Orion Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Oops, there's Kokkai, heavily bandaged but he's there..Lost, hopping on one leg, limping up the hanamichi. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt Orion
Asashosakari Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Been there, done that, got the T-shirtOrion Wow.
Washuyama Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Been there, done that, got the T-shirtOrion Wow. LOL!
Fukurou Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 Day 13 Withdrawing and Returning - and not totally who you'd expect. Withdrawing: West Makushita 52 MASUTOO (3-3) Returning: East Juryo 11 HOKUTOKUNI (4-7-1, absent from day 11)
Vikanohara Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Day 13Withdrawing and Returning - and not totally who you'd expect. Withdrawing: West Makushita 52 MASUTOO (3-3) I only reported it twice. Though I must admit I expected Kokkai to withdraw as well. He'll probably do tomorrow ? And I also thought Tamawashi would have been at least damaged, though he looked ok.
Asashosakari Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 I only reported it twice. I think the unexpected part is Hokutokuni's quick return, rather.
Fukurou Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 I only reported it twice. I think the unexpected part is Hokutokuni's quick return, rather. Hokutokuni's possible return had also been mentioned. For me, the unexpected part was Kokkai still not withdrawing, especially after Kintamayama's description of him on day 12.
Kintamayama Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Hokutokuni's possible return had also been mentioned. For me, the unexpected part was Kokkai still not withdrawing, especially after Kintamayama's description of him on day 12. And today he was limping up the hanamichi.
Fukurou Posted January 20, 2012 Author Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Day 13 Late A rather strange (to me) late withdrawal. There must be something about J11 this basho - Juryo tri-leader West Juryo 11 AMURU (10-2) is withdrawing as of day 13. If he was injured during his day 12 loss to Kotoyuki (oshidashi) it must have happened off camera - he turned his body to be going forward as he stepped off the dohyo to the floor (apparently under control), then the remainder of the video is focused on Kotoyuki (you don't see Amuru go back onto the dohyo to bow to the winner). Amuru was scheduled to face fellow tri-leader Chiyotairyu this day (Sotairyu is the 3rd tri-leader). (this is all Jakusotsu's fault) Edited January 20, 2012 by Fukurou
specialweek 2 Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 He certainly looked proppy after his bout but didn't appear too bad.

Amuru was scheduled to face fellow tri-leader Chiyotairyu this day (Sotairyu is the 3rd tri-leader). Could be his knee as Kotoviki, our agent in Moscow Tokyo, mentioned in the Pick The Yusho Winners thread: Amuru was indeed a good pick!! I am glad he is doing so well, even though I picked Ikioi... but Amuru is still injured with his left knee. He has ice on it and taped up while he is doing anything except keiko. He can't even bend it fully so I worried about him... but I'm so happy for him!! I should have picked him anyway but spending a day with him a few days before the basho even he worried about his knee so... I did too!
Kintamayama Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Amuuru-right knee front ligament something-4 weeks to recuperate. He will not be returning this basho, said his Oyakata. "He was doing so well so it is regrettable,"said Ounomatsu.
Kintamayama Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 After day 14 is over, I think it's safe to say Chiyonokuni did not show up for his bout today-shoulder dislocation - kyujo- two weeks rest.
Asojima Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Tochinonada was a no show for his Day 15 match with Homarefuji, and he is not listed on the NSK site as kyujo. Intai??
Onibushou Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Tochinonada was a no show for his Day 15 match with Homarefuji, and he is not listed on the NSK site as kyujo. Intai?? His page on http://sumo.goo.ne.jp/eng says （retired）
Vikanohara Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) Looks like Hokutokuni's injury only made him stronger. (Whistling...) And Kokkai also managed to at least win once more after. (Neener, neener...) Edited January 22, 2012 by Vikanohara
Fukurou Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 Thanks to everyone for keeping this updated. Tochinonada was a no show for his Day 15 match with Homarefuji, and he is not listed on the NSK site as kyujo. Intai?? His page on http://sumo.goo.ne.jp/eng says （retired） And he's on the Intai List on the Japanese side. Since this thread will be locked soon, the discussion of Tochinonada's intai is here.
Mikiro Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Thanks so much for your postings during the basho.
Fukurou Posted January 23, 2012 Author Posted January 23, 2012 Thanks so much for your postings during the basho. You are quite welcome! (Holiday feeling...)
