Does this bring Hopoate into calculations over the next month should he return to form and match fitness via the lower grades?
Malls no genius but I’m pretty sure he wasn’t referring to managing Toms injury - he meant the team managing the fact that Tom wasn’t playing.Dont see any issue with that comment given our first two games.How was Meninga’s form last night on Fox before the Cowboys game?
When they brought up Turbo doing his hammy again all he could say was something along the lines of “...well I hope they manage it better this time around”.
Seriously?

I can't believe I'm saying this as its praising South Sydney players, but anyway.....
I have to say well done to three Souths players - George Burgess, Ethan Lowe and Mark Nicholls - for the sportsmanship that they showed on Saturday at Brookvale when Tom Trbojevic pulled up lame with the hamstring injury. The game was still going at that point and they had every right to tackle him and make him spill the ball. Instead, they recognised that Tom was injured and didn't tackle him which allowed play to be stopped. Souths could have easily got the ball back in an attacking position at that point had they tackled him, but the welfare of an injured player, an opposition player at that, took precedence over the game.
A bit different to a certain someone who stood arguing with the referee about a penalty when the tackled player was laying on the ground clearly in distress with what was found to be a broken neck.
He said it again right at the end of segment. I’m going to give him benefit of doubt because he would have no idea how we managed the injury so he’s far more likely to comment on our play minus Tommy .... but we do agree on one thing He ain’t the sharpest tool and he should have worded it better.Not normally one for a tinfoil hat, but I thought differently.
Definitely got the impression that he was alluding to Tom's injury management, it was such an off the cuff comment with no follow up.
Agree though that he's not the sharpest tool in the shed.
What about calf’s blood?Concerned Manly superstar Tom Trbojevic will visit exercise physiologists to determine why he has broken down twice this season with hamstring injuries.
“There must be something wrong with the way I am moving,” Trbojevic said. “I have to get to the bottom of it.”
Trbojevic collapsed to the Brookvale Oval turf last weekend against Souths and will be sidelined for between six to nine weeks.
The injury came two months after he initially hurt a hamstring in a pre-season trial against Cronulla.
Trbojevic is “worried” about two similar yet unrelated hamstring injuries.
“There has to be a reason why,” he said. “After one injury, you don’t really question it, but it has happened again you have to work out why.
“There could be many reasons making it occur, so you want to get to the bottom of it and that’s what we’ll do. For it to go again, it’s a bit worrying.
“There are experts, specialists and doctors that have done a lot of research. There are specialists in this area that have dealt with similar injuries.
“There must be something wrong with the way I am moving. I have to get to the bottom of it.”
Trbojevic will consider seeing physios who specialise in hamstrings, exercise physiologists, a sport and exercise scientist, and strength and conditioning coaches.
“You don’t want to just leave it to happen again in 10 weeks when I’m back playing footy,” he said. “I will seek out some advice and it (recovery) could be something left-field.
“After coming back from the first injury, I felt really confident with it. I had no issues and was really happy with how it went. The rehab staff at Manly did a really good job.”
The second injury has shattered Trbejovic, particularly after he inspired Manly to successive wins.
“It’s a tough one, it’s a shame,” he said. “I love playing footy and it’s disappointing I will miss some weeks.
“It’s the same leg but a different spot. It is nothing to do with coming back early or the rehab I did previously.”
Leading physio Brien Seeney, who is well known for his social media posts about injured NRL players. offered his thoughts on Trbojevic’s injury.
“The biggest predictor for hamstring injury is prior hamstring injury,” Seeney said.
“In other words, if you’ve had a hamstring injury in the past, you’re more likely to have one in the future, whether that is in the same spot or a different spot.
“In terms of notifiable risk factors, the biggest ones are shortened hamstrings, tighter hamstrings and weakness of the hamstrings when in an elongated state.
“When the hamstring is longer or put in a stretched position, is it weak in that state?
“Things like fatigue, strength imbalance, that can come into it, too.”
Asked how Trbojevic could prevent further hamstring injuries, Seeney said: “They want player hamstrings to be long and strong.
“What that means is when hamstring injuries occur, when the muscle is required to work heavily at a lengthened state, a player with a hamstring that is long and strong, they seem to be the best chance of avoiding these hamstring injuries.
“It would be a specific rehab he would have to undertake to try and strengthen the hamstring at that elongated position.”

Scans have revealed Tom Trbojevic has uneven legs that have led to hamstring issues ruining the start of the Manly superstar’s season.

Just like I said, the kiddie's body has growth spurts and is unbalanced
Such awesome reporting. First they say he has suffered hamstring injuries for some time now - then he says "I've never had hamstring problems before". They say his left leg is 1cm shorter, and he says his left leg is 1cm longer. Seriously these guys are hilariously incompetent.https://amp.dailytelegraph.com.au/s...f154d4ff77f593f0669?__twitter_impression=true
