Official Andrew Fifita

[snowman]

Not being able to back up after a 10 week break is a massive concern.

its not really

he may have been training really well and then tweaked his calf last week

 

[snowman]

The knee. Big fella is done I think. 2mths off and reduced training load upon return and still no good.

sharks tweeted he had a calf complaint

sharks tweeted he had a calf complaint

Went off NRL site which said knee.

 

[Thresher]

If they're getting his knee and calf mixed up he must be in all sorts

 

[Sparkles]

His calf is currently where a good part of his knee resides nowdays.

I love Fifita btw. Would love nothing more than to see him go out in the blaze of defense destroying glory he deserves.

they make up a lot of **** lately

The Sharks have announced two changes to their team to play the Tigers tonight at Bankwest Stadium.

For the Sharks, Andrew Fifita has failed to overcome a calf strain and is a late withdrawal, while Matt Moylan and Billy Magoulias have been included on the interchange bench.

Young forward Toby Rudolf, in just his third NRL game, moves into the Sharks starting side.

The match will be Moylan's first in 2020 after he missed the opening two games before season shutdown. Will Kennedy is set to start the game in the fullback position.

With the issues surrounding the Sharks midweek, Josh Dugan gets his chance in the centres where he will play on the left hand side outside skipper Wade Graham and Kiwi international Shaun Johnson.

Kickoff to the Sharks v Tigers is scheduled for 5.30pm at Bankwest Stadium, with the two 17-man teams listed below.

Hmmm. Really needs to he medically retired, doesn't he.

Get rid of him

Would almost prefer a busted hobbling limping Fifita than a limp dicked Aaron no wood

3 and 5. And that's a solid idea. Even better... I won't let them watch anything from this year and only play 2016 matches for them... Could do that every year for a few yet!

let them watch this season if you want them to grow up real fast...

happens alot they reference a legacy or reoccurring fitness issue than the actual current one which is the problem

 

[Born&bred]

Perhaps you should sew yourself up in a pillow case and throw yourself in the creek.

You forgot to add weights before sewing up.

Ha ha. Knew I'd forgot something.

haha replace "calf strain" with "lingering knee complaint" and it's word for word what I read on NRL.

Uh he is done. He tried but I feel like he needs to retire, he looks flat out.

Uh he is done. He tried but I feel like he needs to retire, he looks fat out.

His knee is cooked and has been since 2018

Yeah but generally he looks cooked out there. Maybe we should've let him go and kept Prior?

 

[Thresher]

He's way past his best but is probably still paying off the family house so you can hardly blame him seeing out his contract.

Prior was pretty poor last year too although for a value for money perspective we probably would have been better shipping off Fifi and keeping Prior

 

[Walley_01]

Doesn’t he get paid out if he medically retires tho?

 

[Thresher]

That's the trick isn't it? Some players/clubs are eligible for medical retirement, others aren't it seems.
