Sipley injury

[Snake]

I think he is a bigger loss than we realise. He has been excellent coming off the bench when we are at full strength and we need his impact when Taupau and AFB go off for spells.

I’m very disappointed and feel for the guy.

I agree. Big loss. Has been great starting too. You need your bench players to come on and continue to roll forward and Sipley has been doing a great job.

He has already been through a large knee reconstruction

Keep your head up Toff you got a big future

Was looking really good

This one really hurt us and Toff

Paseka looked good in his opportunities last season so hopefully he can come back to that level again

Gutted for Tof

Bring in paseka hopefully the big unit will relish in his chance back in the big boys club. He was pretty soft last year imho so im expecting improvement

Get well now Tof!

Is it a break or another ACL ?

Sad for Toff in either case

Saw somewhere on Twitter it was both , but not sure of the credibility of that.

Possible ACL injury for Toafofoa Sipley according to Des Hasler. By video right knee hyperextension brings concern for ACL/PCL/PLC injury, can even cause fracture. Best case would be significant bone bruise. Fingers crossed for Sipley it isn’t as bad as it looks #NRLMagicRound https://t.co/CD36zl9OPH

Despite reports of a possible ACL injury in Rd9, Manly forward Toafofoa Sipley actually suffered a PLC (posterolateral corner) injury, which is to the tendons/ligaments on the outside/back corner of the knee (not to be confused with PCL). He is now aiming to return in Rd23-24.

I hope this is true

I saw him at Brookie with Corey and Toff was half as wide as Corey again

Manly needs a bigger body on the bench and Toff is sorely missed
