It's the reserves Magic Round at Henson Park all Sunday, so we can't cheer them at Shark Park
But next Saturday BWSE are on Fox12:30 @Woodsie
And five tendons per hamstring. When you have an ACL surgery, they take one of your hamstring tendons and make it into a new ACL. Hence players returning from an ACL injury tend to have weakened hamstrings, and are more susceptible to strains there.

While I’ve got the experts here, I’ve got really tight hamstring tendons on my right leg. Anyone have a link to stretches I could do?
Cheeky question I know and sorry to go so off topic.
Only one I know is the old 'stretch your leg out on something and try to touch your toes...then hold for ten seconds or more.' Important not to try both legs at the same time, as that is bad for your back. And try to take slow, deep breaths once you reach full extension so you relax into the stretch a bit.
Its funny - my right hamstring is way tighter than my left, as well - but the left leg is the one that had to be reconstructed after an ACL/MCL/dislocation injury, and subsequently had two hamstring tears. As the yanks say, Go figure!

Is there a youtube clip on how to find your hamstrings?
Plenty on youtube - good luck

Actually they take two hamstring tendons and weave them to make a stronger repair.
Other option is cadaveric tendon (“allograft”). These used to have a high failure rate but quality is much better now and some athletes will go with this option.
Then there is the synthetic LARS system - fast recovery but high failure rate ( swans Alex Johnston had two, but he was running out of options after SIX ACL ruptures - poor bugger. I don’t think these get used very often any more.

I still feel robbed! Had a fair bit of coin on him MOTM in that game. Slater script ruined my night....

Not only that, but if NSW win that first game, it's unlikely that they will change the teams unless there's an injury, so Tom T may miss SOO all together

How come they don’t do patella tendon grafts anymore? That’s what they used to repair my acl back in the day (25 years ago). Took 12 months to recover but by golly it’s still strong and holding out. Of course I’m not an nrl player so can only think the hammy has a quicker recovery time.
