And in a bizarre twist, it has been reported Lai is a qualified doctor and diagnosed his own injury as a possible ACL tear.

Picken laid a heavy bump on Michael Walters as the Docker booted a major from the goalsquare early in the third quarter.

After colliding with Walters, Picken fell across the goal line and collected the umpire.
Lai immediately grimaced in pain and called for assistance.
Field umpire "Razor" Ray Chamberlain patted Lai on the head before he was carried from the field, while the crowd clapped as Lai was lifted onto the stretcher.
Fox Footy reported Lai was taken to Epworth Hospital in an ambulance for treatment by renowned orthopedic surgeon David Young, who also works for the Dogs.
