Looks like a clear attempt to try rushing back for origin. Luckily sanity prevails and he doesn’t play until he is 100% right.How does Ponga get named last round being told he is close then no chance next week....
If any of those go down we will definitely struggle to name 17 + 4 extended4 players also on report...
Yep. Just have to look at the blokes quads to know leg injuries will be at a premium. Once you start building muscle mass in the leg area, ligaments don't work the way they should for rolling of the ankle etc.Best’s career is looking like a “what could’ve been” already. Poor fellow.
He said Lee is keeping weight off his foot by wearing a moonboot and using a scooter to get around.Toohey wrote an article today on lee.. anyone read it yet?
Ahhh hopefully it heals shame if he had to retireHe said Lee is keeping weight off his foot by wearing a moonboot and using a scooter to get around.
I doesn't sound like it's a big injury, but it's not healing if he tries to train, so he has to rest it completely.
