From the 'NRL 2025, Injuries, Suspension Return Dates, Casualty Ward and Key Information for the 2025 NRL Telstra Premiership Season' web page, Here is the Latest NRL Injured or Unavailable Update:
* * * (Updated: Monday, 19 May 2025) * * *
Jake Trbojevic, who captained the Blues to last year's Origin series win, has been ruled out of the May 28 State of Origin series opener at Suncorp Stadium after suffering a Category 1 head knock while playing for Manly against North Queensland.
He was attempting to tackle Cowboys winger Murray Taulagi and slumped to the ground after a head clash, with team-mates - including brothers Tom and Ben - showing concern for the inspirational forward.
The NRL's mandatory 11-day stand down for concussions applies to State of Origin.
"Obviously it was a really sad sight to see him concussed there," Sea Eagles coach Anthony Seibold said.
"That’s the second one in the last month. We have a lot of concern for Jake, but he’s up and about. Obviously he will miss next week, and we need to look after his welfare."
