From nrl Twitter physio
Nasty elbow dislocation for Manly forward Haumole Olakau'atu. If clean dislocation can actually be as quick a return as 3-4 weeks, but concern for significant ligament damage and/or fracture here which would be 6+ weeks recovery. Wish him the best

Oh dear. That is horrendous.

North’s winger sent off and charged with a chicken wing tackle.

He dragged him down in a wrestling attempt to get a penalty. Haumole was trying to get up.

Hopefully no major ligament damage and could be back in 6 weeks

Ridiculous sendoff. Officials lost control of that game completely (as per usual these days).

His grabbing of Olakau-atu is directly responsible for his injury. I say fair call!

I fainted at the use of feint.

Fkn spewin. I’ve been looking for any news of Guac coming into the season.
‘Finally find him playing good footy, and then whooshka!, he’s gone again. Bloke can’t take a trick.

Was a beast today. 113 kilos, mobile and wacks in defence.. Took 3 players every time to tackle. Ridiculous he is not in 17

**** injury, especially for a bloke that should not have even been playing in this game.

Dont know what you are talking about 😉

You could see how bad it was by the reaction of just the Bears players. Their 5/8 looked like he wanted to throw up

That was uglier than your mother in law.

I was blaming Des before it was cool...

Speedy recovery for Guava hopefully, need him available as an edge backrower in the starting 13.. He may lack the fitness of Siro and JetSki but he brings a lot more to the table..
