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: Thursday, 04 September 2025) * * *
Sea Eagles speedster Tolu Koula was forced from the field with a knee injury during Saturday night's win over the Dragons.
Koula helped himself to a try in the 20th minute at Jubilee Stadium but went down injured nine minutes later and was assisted from the field.
"The initial assessment is it's a Grade 2 MCL and generally speaking that's a 4-6 weeks out for something like that," Manly coach Anthony Seibold said.
In more positive news, Seibold expects Taniela Paseka to be available for Round 27 as he approaches a return from an Achilles rupture.
Manly forward Jake Trbojevic is set to sit out the remainder of the regular season as he continues to recover from a concussion.
Trbojevic suffered his third concussion in the past four months in the Sea Eagles' Round 23 loss to the Raiders and club medical staff have taken a cautious approach with his recovery.
