Melbourne Storm signing Sandor Earl injures knee, could miss NRL season source SMH

The 28-year-old was only weeks into his NRL return after a four-year suspension for using and trafficking performance enhancing drugs after 48 games with the Sydney Roosters, Penrith Panthers and Canberra Raiders.

I feel really sorry for the bloke

In my view he was the scapegoat of the drugs "crisis".

Hope he comes back towards the end of the year.

 

[Lord Eagleton]

Sounds like he could do with some peptides to repair the injury and get him back on the field sooner

Totally agree.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Agree with the fact he was a scapegoat, and sad this has happened.

Wonder if Toggy will step in and grant him a medical retirement for 2018?

 

[ALinda]

Some people seem to cop all the bad luck!

I too feel sorry for him and hope he can finally return to the NRL sooner rather than later.

 

[eaglebuzz]

Kinda nice to see the Storm copping some bad luck for a change, sucks for Earl though

Right injury....wrong player...

I don’t understand why he gets such sympathetic press. He played less than 50 games for a couple of clubs then got busted and suspended.

Because he was suspended for 4 years for taking steroid to cure an injury.

Sharks players got 3 weeks for systematic steroid injections and supplements to improve on field performance .

Earl's trafficking offence for instance, was Dank giving him the solution to take to his Doctor to inject into himself 😎

Scapegoat comes to mind.

Scapegoat comes to mind.

As he was led away he addressed the press with “I’m a patsy”

Why does a genuine sympathy post warrant a dummy spit @Class of 96 ?

May have been done in error, I hope so at least as it didn’t warrant that!

Umm @ALinda. I actually have never given a dummy spit rating to anyone (I find it very childish unless it is Strone), and certainly would not have for your post (although the evidence proves otherwise lol). I can only assume I was scrolling through the messages on the phone and inadvertently bumped the rating button. Removed, so all fixed and unintended.

PS MFB...I gave you a dummy spit in jest. I'll reverse it if you bring me a case of Hanoi Lager 😉

Lol

It’s the best of the beers here I must say!!

 

[Supreme Leader]

Wonder if his contract will still be under their salary cap next year? Bet because it happened prior to Dec 1 they get to replace him!

Thank you @Class of 96 . Query now deleted and thanks @Mark from Brisbane
