How Many Sea Eagles Games Will Turbo Play in 2023?

[40 nil]

The 2023 season is approaching and Turbo is injured again. What's new?

Will 2023 be the year when finally Turbo plays a full season (or close to it)?

Or, will he miss the bulk of games as has been the case in most recent years?

You can prognosticate here

As long as he doesn't miss or lose a game from June 1st till the end of the year we will be okay.

 

[Budgie]

As many as he can.
It’s not like he gets injured on purpose.
I can’t see the point of all the bitching.

And to you too!

More than me.

His magic number is 7. That’s about 130k per game.

I mean I ain't spending the off season worrying about something we've got no control over and we can't possibly predict.

So I'll just go with 75% plus till proven otherwise

I want the young man to reach his potential so I'm thinking positive. It is disappointing to read negativity on this forum at times.

Just send Tommy off to the USA please. Get him sorted out once and for all. Its worked for Fatrell.

So after a hand full of games ... you are prepared to call latrell cured ... won't do another hammie .. big call ...

Couldn't the same have been said about Tom when he came back from Melb and produced the greatest 18 games in history.

God bless America indeed feathered friend

Lets make Tommy Great again !

Its New York or bust for Tommy

So....Start spreading the news
Tommy is leaving today
He wants to be a part of it
New York, New York

If Tommy can make it there
He will make it anywhere
It's up to Tom
New York, New York !

I'll hold my vote after the 6 or so weeks, then see how Turbo's travelling after that.

Let us Never lose hope in our dark moments when the sun goes down
The stars will come out and shed the light of hope into every set back


Let us all always choose hope above hopelessness and light above darkness
Let us all choose the hope that Turbo will fly high into the 2023 season and be a consistent dominant force

Agree with you feathered friend

You either nourish your spirit with Positivity

Or Poison your self and all your hopes with Negativity

As no one has risen to any great heights by being a negative soul

Don't forget 2021 started with corsogate in February.
Turbo returned in round six. He went on to only miss 4 games due to origin and round 23 with the cheek injury. There is nothing to say he won't play 20+ games this year.

 

[XV-1]

What round will Turbo be back to start the season?

Round 9 for me.

THis is his 5th Hammy??? its too many, they need specialist help. 18 games great ,but we need 20 a season for many seasons from our gun fullback. I just want him better and that ain't happening here in Oz.

Was eagerly awaiting this poll...

Both hammies shot, scar tissue on scar tissue at a muscle that has the highest re-injury rate in the body.

Loving the optimism here but sadly Tom's body will only struggle more and more to stay on the park. The athleticism must be dialled back (e.g. purposeful stepping vs sheer acceleration), but it is his athleticism that makes Tom a Turbo in a high intensity high impact sport.

Unfortunately for Manly, our biggest weapon will most likely yield diminishing returns, whilst our second biggest weapon is in prison. Seems a wasted generation through sheer bad luck but the next crop look likely (Schuster, Gauc, Koula, Weekes, GCKT, Fainus, etc.) as long as Seibold can at the least maximise their development in the next 3 years.
