Albert Hopoate Jnr

Wow that's horribly bad luck - what was it, his 2nd game back ?

Major advances in surgery. Once they never returned from an acl the same. It's just not the career ending injury it once was.

Wolfie got 'someone else' acl' he said 😀

Donor ones take better than repairing ones own torn acl

Poor kid, rough break. Guess we wont get to seem him in FG action this year.

Might need to get him partnered up with Locky Crocker who has managed to find the motivation to return from multiple ACLs.

He is a talented kid, I think he will crack into FG next season

We've got to sign him up first. This injury has complicated issues and I hope Manly don't go cold on him. He and Schuster are potentially rep players in my opinion and Manly need to tie them up. Ben T is also one with big potential being able to play forwards or backs. Manly potentially has a young group of top liners coming through in Fainu, Hoppa, Schuster, Ben T. Big Oli and possibly Anderson and Miski, if Manly sign them all up.

Miski is not part of a young crop of top liners. He is 23 and looks like being a career reserve grader...not sure about Anderson making it to FG either.

ACL injuries ended up restricting Albert with his speed, not good news reading he has suffered another one.

Albert Hopoate’s season is over after suffering his third ACL injury in NSW Cup. He previously required consecutive ACL reconstructions in 2018 and 2019. Surgery is planned, with an expected nine-month recovery.

Yet another cruel example of the fleeting nature of a RL career. Hopeful he will recover and find a position where being fleet of foot is not so important.

On SEN this morning they said it was his 4th ACL injury.

They maybe correct, though I could only find the three written, the two he suffered when he was at Manly impacted his leg speed along with his body getting bigger.
