Would have been better if they moved up the alphabet just a tiny bit.
 
I read briefly somewhere that Kennedy did his MCL in the Eels game. Is this right and any news on him?

This might explain Tariq's poor season..
 
Roosters Latrell replacement Billy Smith has done his ACL at training.
 
I wasn't sure where else to post this or it had been previously posted.

In January 2020, former NRL player Mose Masoe was taken from the field on a stretcher during Hull KR's pre-season friendly against Wakefield Trinity after suffering a serious spinal injury. It has since been announced that Masoe would not play rugby league again and has been forced into early retirement.
 
Sounds like Tedesco might have torn his pec at training. Would be a fair layoff if that is the case.

Could have done us a favour and saved it for Origin time if he was going to break down.
 
That's awful news and makes his State of Origin omission tougher to swallow.

Makes the article this morning saying his knee is 100% and he's looking forward to the season pretty sad as well..

Unlucky dude.
 
Yeah I'd say he's done. When you can't even get through a routine training session without blowing your ACL, I mean crikey. The Titans will seek a medical exception on his contract because they really don't have time to be waiting around.

People will hate to hear it, but at this point it really wouldn't surprise me if we saw David Fifita in a Titans jersey from 2021 onwards.

What kind of medical exemption could they get??

It's reoccurrence of an existing injury, therefore can't get medical retirement and it didn't happen during a rep game so they can't get salary cap relief in the same way raiders could with Hodgson a few years back.

They're also not the rabbits so there's that as well
 
I think there should be an injury replacement system under the cap. Especially if before round 1.
