Gillett gone for 3 months with fractured neck

[I bleed Maroon]

Welp, this season can go and jump off a cliff in a real hurry. What a fucking mess.

****

Our right hand side will turn to shit now in defence

This could be why Bird may be playing halfback.

Get another big body on the right edge.

I don’t want to be a **** but could this be career ending if he has done any more damage ?

Is that confirmed yet? I thouht he was on ‘standby’ to play half?

Soo it’s all good and well to say “amazing toughness” and praise him for fighting through the pain but in the modern day where clubs are so cautious about playing injured guys how does this happen? How does he play 4 Striaght weeks, training day in and day out with no speculation of an issue at all? Surely there’s some form of negligence here from someone for this not to be picked up sooner?

Broncos new state of the art multi million dollar training facility but no one can diagnose a bloke with a fractured neck until 4 weeks after he’s done it.

He wasn't playing any good out there anyway. Better that he recovers and comes back strong, than the previous possible chance that he was just declining rapidly.

who is to say the Broncos medical staff didn't diagnose the injury, but allowed him to play anyway if the injury couldn't get any worse ...

on another note, there is no wonder his form has been down

Carrigans been playing second row in QCup, could he be an option at some point?

Three fractured vertebrae in spine.
No long term issues, no surgery.

 

[Browny]

3 months away comes back fresh for the finals

Are there any articles about Bennett forcing him to play with a broken neck yet?

Give Kenty time.

Possibility of being back early?

 

[theshed]

I kinda feel bad for thinking he has been struggling with form this year.

I love Gillo.

8-12 he was told.

 

[Super Freak]

Kevvie wasn't even aware of the injury.

You just know the Roosters had something to do with it.
