Tommy T Injured - usa bound

[Damien2812]

Again problem is if we unload him to another club they’ll spend the money to fix him ala souths with mitchell to america.We’ll be sucked in because the penns won’t spend the money to do it.

Manly can send him to Hugh Jackmans house who maybe able to fix him.

 

[bob dylan]

I wonder if Siebold may consider releasing him? He may have a completely different attitude towards putting up with such unreliability?

Reported.

 

[Damien2812]

Time to grab the fragile tape and tape it around his whole body. Turbo epitomizes the word fragile.

If only we had Crowe’s passion, connections and financial support, then we might at least feel we were exploring and exhausting all possibilities.

In fact, I’m surprised the rorters or south’s haven’t explored the possibility of luring Turbo away with promises of world class treatments.

Very true but we don't, so we need to do the best we can to at least remove some of that fragile tape from his legs.

Perhaps just invest in a music video with MC Hammer’s legs and dance moves superimposed onto Turbo?

Lol.. that still won't work on Turbo.

 

[Heckenberg]

Actually, he’s done 5 hammies in 2 years to put it in perspective… let alone the truckload of other injuries.

That’s two more than I have

That’s two more than I have

It’s an eye opener to consider what these elite athletes are putting their bodies through for the sport they love.

When Snake retired, the one thing we all rejoiced at was that we wouldn't have to cringe and hope he wouldn't get up limping after being tackled. It was nerve racking in the last 4-5 years of his career.

Unfortunately Turbo has turned out to be even more fragile so we're still cringing. Your lady is unfortunately right, he is becoming Mr. Glass. Maybe we should start calling him George. He is talked about but rarely seen.....

Yes agree.

Snake played from mid 2004 to mid 2016. He played a bit of 2016 but retired. I know he got injured in that debut game in 2003 when killer ran over him when he was 18.

So from 2005 to 2015 - he was only out 2009 and 2010.
Apart from that he played almost every game and what a mighty player he was.

Tom has had far worse injury luck so far

 

[ALinda]

Any optimism that Turbo could replicate 2021 and play more games than sit on the sidelines next year has been shot. If he can't get through preseason without an issue, what are chances of a season proper...on par with winning lotto. Me thinks a sad reality.

I don't think many expect him to replicate his 2021 form when he was won the Dally M from just 15 regular season games. His 2021 season began in Rd Six. If he starts the 2023 season from Rd One (still 11 weeks away), he may well surpass the number of games he played in 2021.

Less than a day after Manly posted a TikTok video cheering on Tom Trbojevic as “last man standing” in a preseason Yoyo torture test, the champion fullback has suffered another shattering hamstring injury.
And while it remains to be seen how long the superstar Sea Eagle will be out of action after he was sent for scans on Wednesday, it has definitely delivered new coach Anthony Seibold his “biggest challenge” since taking over from Des Hasler.
That is the expert opinion of the respected NRL Physio Brien Seeney, who told The Daily Telegraph: “I think Seibold’s biggest challenge going to that club is keeping Tommy on the park at this stage.
“Because it is obvious whatever, I guess, training methods they have gone with so far just aren’t getting the job done, unfortunately.”
CASUALTY WARD: Injury news from every club

Manly superstar Tom Trbojevic has suffered yet another hamstring injury. Picture: NRL Imagery
It comes after The Telegraph broke the news online on Wednesday that Trbojevic had gone down clutching at his right leg during an opposed session at Narrabeen.
It is Trbojevic’s fifth hamstring injury since 2019.
But while the initial three occurred on his left leg, this is now the second in a row on his right leg - the same hamstring he injured during his infamous late night sprint down the Corso in February 2021.
On this occasion Trbojevic was said to have been only cruising and not sprinting when he pulled up at training, but he immediately knew he had a problem.

He was then helped from the field before he sat with his head between his hands looking absolutely gutted.
Manly chief executive Tony Mestrov confirmed the club was awaiting scan results: “Tom didn’t finish the training session and has gone off for a precautionary scan.
“I can’t say any more.”

INJURY MANAGEMENT COULD GET TRICKY
Seeney gave his verdict on how delicate and difficult it will be managing the training workload given Trbojevic worrying history.
Seeney said while it was most likely Trbojevic should be fit for Round 1, unless it had been completely torn off the bone, he added in a Tweet: “Obviously of more concern is adding another strain to his hamstring injury history”.
Asked to elaborate on that, Seeney explained: “When I say concern, if it is his right again, you are adding more scar tissue to the hamstring.
“There is more danger of weakness to persist, strength deficit, those kind of things.
“And especially because his right you would say is his good hamstring … but obviously it has gone again.”

He said the fact the injury occurred when he was not running at full pace “is a good thing”.
“Because usually at full pace it is going to be a significant tear or something like that,” he continued.
“But it depends what they have done with him training-wise over the last couple of weeks.
“Whether there has been too much build-up of load or something like that.”
Asked how the club would likely manage it in the future, he added: “I think Seibold’s biggest challenge going to that club is keeping Tommy on the park at this stage.
“Because it is obvious whatever, I guess, training methods they have gone with so far just aren’t getting the job done unfortunately.
“I thought (it was going OK).
“It won’t be quite two years (since the last hamstring injury), but it will be nearly two years since he suffered a hamstring injury.

New Manly coach Anthony Seibold will be hoping Trbojevic is ready for Round 1, given the team’s horrible win record without him. Picture: AAP.
“Effectively 2019/2020 were his bad years, and the start of 2021 was the ‘Corso’.
“So he hasn’t had one since the start of 2021.
“That’s the thing. I thought they had some sort of program in place and they seemed to be on top of things.
“The big thing is, even though it is another hamstring, it would have to have been completely torn off the bone for it not to be right for round one.
“They have got the best part of two and a half months until round one. Even if it is a grade two you are usually looking around six to eight weeks, which would still have him right.
“But they can take it extra slow with him (because it is preseason).
“He couldn’t have done it at a better time.
“It is just now, moving forward, I think it is how they are going to manage him in season to make sure that the risk of hamstring injuries is as low as possible.”

Reuben Garrick will likely replace Trbojevic, should he not be fit for Round 1. Picture: Getty Images.
ONE MAN TEAM
The statistics show Trbojevic has only played a total of 44 of 97 Manly games since 2019, and without him the Sea Eagles only win 33 per cent of their matches.
Although his list of injuries extend beyond hamstring issues, having also suffered shoulder, knee and pectoral problems.
This season he did not play after suffering a shoulder injury in round 11.
Manly’s first trial game is against South Sydney in eight weeks at Gosford on February 10, while the Sea Eagles face Canterbury in their season opener on March 4.
Reuben Garrick is the most likely replacement for Trbojevic should he face an extended break.

However, Garrick is also on the casualty ward after suffering a late season-ending shoulder injury himself.
The club is hopeful Garrick will be available for round one as well. The other option to play fullback would be youngster Tolutau Koula.

Interesting how 'journos' simply report that he injured his hammy 'in the corso run' when he came out and categorically said it was slipping in the shower.

Whether anyone believes that or not, it's a bit different for people to mention this 'at a pub' than putting it in print.

It's one thing to say rothfool drives home drunk every day, but that he speeds through school zones while doing it....

You know, for example.

Yeah, but for every Teddy, how many kids don’t fulfil their promise due to injury? Not to mention teddy’s injury run was over in his early 20s. Turbo is now 26 and still getting regular injuries.

I don’t think you can account for Teddy’s resurgence as just luck, he endured far more serious injuries than Turbo. Anyway also look at Foz he was also prone to hamstring injuries and he played just about every game for us over the last 2 years. It can be done.
Anyway here is some of the details on Tedesco.

We have Penns Passion and financial support but I agree we can do with greater connections

Just listening to 7 News reporter Michelle Bishop on SEN, she said she’d heard it is not too serious and likely a 3-4 week injury.
