Heaven help the player that deliberately spear tackles an opponent. He'll be outed for a season!

Such a blow for him and the team if this is confirmed. Anyone seen any follow-up on this, preferably from a source other than Facebook?
Here's a link to a post by NRL Physio. He's normally always on the money so it doesn't look good for Lawton.
Terrible luck for him. He is a good player, I hope he can make a successful comeback.
Next man up!
Next man up!
lawton take the time off terrible news and be ready to be part of our 2023 assault on the title.Ohhhhh Nooooo - the poor guy.
Rest up Karl - heal - we are all behind you mate. 9 months to recover my friend. Come back bigger and stronger. We all love you mate. Setbacks create character. It's how you bounce-back that's important.
Holy ****, I'm sounding like @BOZO

Nrl says no injuries from the game so Karl must be fine. Published Sunday night. So do we expect Karl to play next week or is the nrl completely hopeless with its reporting? You be the judge.

This brings Paseka into play now, If Walkers out as well. The bench looking like Paseka, Keepie, Kapow and Davey. Assuming Schuster goes back to 2nd row.
I wouldn't mind seeing dce rested for next week's game tbh and keep the same halves!
Doubt it’ll happen but it could
Must admit though, DCE usually bounces back really well after a Origin game.
That's tough for Lawton, on the back of an achilles costing him half of last season
Feel bad for the bloke, hope he gets well soon.. I like Lawton, he tries hard.
On a positive note… maybe with him injured, we can actually carry a 4th bench player that des will actually f$&king use…. Absolutely sick and tired of watching manly struggle each week while Lawton sits on the bench for 73 minutes before entering the game… it’s like des likes to intentionally handicap our side by only using 3 reserves while everyone else uses 4

There has been nothing official about a Lawton ACL injury. Read post #273.
Just checked the NRL injury update from 1hr ago, just said Lawton picked up a Knee problem TBC. There is still hope then, probably find out today you would think.

NRL Casualty Ward: Double ACL blows stun Cowboys
A horror week for the Cowboys with back-rower Heilum Luki and outside back Tom Chester both set to miss the 2025 season after training mishaps.

"The Sea Eagles could be without forward Karl Lawton after he picked up a knee injury in the side's win over the Warriors."
Cant agree with that pench personally.
In the age of HIAs need some flexibility to cover backs and halves.
Id go
