You can bet Sirius will be talking about it after the cameras zoom into Burrow's hand if he ever flexes it or makes a bad throw/winces/etc.

If he ever injures it again, let's make sure we've won a SB or two first.

It would suck, HARD if his career did end prematurely, but if we win it all, it'll make the blow A LOT more cushioned.

1. It wasn't a brace FFS: are people still going on about this?
2. Caesar covered it well above: you can't predict an acute injury, otherwise we should wear braces/casts/whatever on our entire body, if we could avoid them.
