That was an impact injury, heavy bash from the side. It may not have anything to do with his existing knee problems

Hope it's not too bad

Wouldn't risk him for the rest of the season, get him healthy for next year.

Seriously I know he's tough as nails and would die on the field for us but the poor bastard is now a liability. He's been toughing it out for 2 seasons now wreaked and trying to lead and inspire, which he did well last year as skipper. He was so good he beat ****s at 60% but with BHU's emergence and thinking long term I think Andrew needs to fix that leg. Even the commentary tonight were feeling sorry for him.

Throw in the towel this season mate and get right.

yep but has never really had a bad one for us before this year - has consistently been one of our best players week in week out up until 2019
i wont hold this season against him, just needs to get his body and mind right, but tough telling a footy player not to play footy for a while

Busts a gut every week (even if he can be ill disciplined) and scored the winning try in the grand final.

He’s been worth every penny.

Been worth, yes
Worth it this year? No
Worth it next year and the two after that? Looking unlikely unless he can get that knee properly fixed

That’s hardly his fault though

No it’s not his fault at all
His body is failing him

Very concerning for our roster if he can’t get back above this years form though given we have him for 3 more years

Unfortunately he’s probably too stubborn to retire and won’t do what’s best for his body or us

I’ll be stoked if they can fix that knee and get him going again, don’t get me wrong. And I still love what he has done for us

Mate I'm ****en stumped how a dunce like you, against all odds, finds the on button of your device to come here and display your rampant stupidity week on week. You should be on $800k for that effort. Or at least a hefty NDIS plan.

Repped.
