SOO INJURY CURSE STRIKES. Tom probably out for season. Is Manly’s NRL season toast?

[Eagle 1]

A better clubman would’ve said no to origin this year and concentrated on the club that pays his salary. Surely he owes the club that much. Selfish bloke who is made of glass.

Never seen a more jinxed player to put on a jersey.

 

[HK_Eagle]

Can we please sell Turbo? We have too much tied up in him to succeed and he’s a lemon unfortunately. I’d rather have a Gutho or Edwards with much less talent but reliable week in week out. We are never going to build towards a premiership long term if we keep relying on Turbo to maybe one day come good. Recipe for disaster. Save the money and spend it wisely on solid reliable players. You need a spine together over long term to build together. We ain’t had that in…. I can’t even remember.

 

[HK_Eagle]

Perhaps he needs an extended run to reach his potential.
Seibold can say to him the No.1 is yours for the rest of the year. Own it or don't it's up to you.
Our season is stuffed regardless so what's the harm?

I don’t mind this to be honest.

If you could buy an available fullback for rest of the season rather than use Garrick you would be looking at Dane Laurie, Charlie Staines, possibly CKN if you offered 2 year deal, maybe Lachlan Miller.

Chez to fullback you know it makes sense

 

[Yaz Eagle]

Everyone bagging Weekes he may have a blinder this weekend. Now that he knows the position is his to lose for rest of the season rather than a temporary role he may play really well.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

It’s a shame Tommy played origin this year. Wisdom would have seen him sit it out this year. Probably wouldn’t have made any difference bad luck is bad luck. I feel for Tom he must be shattered.

 

[Eagle 1]

Just doctor googled. Low grade tear 4-6 weeks. High grade 3-4 months.

He wasn't wincing in pain when taking a seat on the bench....I'm sayin 4-6 wks.

Like Latrell is?

Yep, Tom is shattered.

Shattered Both hammys
One shoulder
Both pecs
Both ankles

Once my chicken got a peck injury.
She was layed off for the season.

Hilarious mate

A nice big needle will do that.

Our season could be over and you’re making chicken jokes?

 

[Ben]

Do we get salary cap relief for turbo injury in origin

Maybe we should sign RTS with Turbos money for the rest of the year

 

[Seagles68]

Gotta look at the bright side - he won't be playing in Origin 3.

 

[bob dylan]

Just get RTS to finsh the year off.

It makes sense.

(The Warriors recently looked into it but decided against it)

 

[Carl]

Where can we get enough big needles for the rest of the season?

Even if so season gone already before return if it isn't gone already.

 

[jbb/james]

Sorry,I’m back for one more comment.How are those intelligent folk on ST’s that suggested TomT should move to the centres to avoid injuries,feeling right now?Quite stupid I’d suspect

What about those that said lattrel came back from the us and was having no issues. Out for 6 months with a lower leg strain

 

[bob dylan]

Gotta look at the bright side - he won't be playing in Origin 3.

Freddie will probably pick Schuster or Garrick to replace him.
