[Resurrected] Turbo injury, healthy, injury, healthy, and dancer - updates

[Wombat64]

Tommy will be back bigger and stronger next season coming back to take his Dally M throne.

No he won't. He'll just get injured again.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

No he won't. He'll just get injured again.

Take it away Roger Daltrey:

Won’t get injured again,
Won’t get injured again,
No! No!

Not sure where to post this - an interesting video detailing Latrell's rehab training with Bill Knowles in Philadelphia. Maybe Turbo would benefit from the same programme?

He looked very fit and played very well his first game back. Reminded me that people used to (and still do) get on his back about his weight early on in his career, much like Schuster…

Resting up well. Hanging out with injured brother Ben... and hopefully not the trifecta with Jake after the s.o.o. dead rubber today.

Because there’s a salary cap in the NRL,unlike Origin.So if you’re paying a million dollars for a player in a position that is not very influential,it leaves less for a position that is,fullback.The NRL is played a completely different way to how Origin is,due to many factors,so a centre can be more potent there than club games.Tom’s injuries aren’t occurring because he’s playing fullback,it’s because he’s injury prone or just bad luck in certain circumstances.I could use the argument that he was playing fullback when he won DallyM player of the year last season but everyone should know that

Calls to move him to centre is not about trying to prevent injury, but rather is a more manageable solution for when he does go down.

A fullback continually missing large chunks of the season is far more disruptive than a centre.

This team can never move forward with a key member of the spine injured all year, every year.

That aged well

Funny how Latrell's stellar back end of the last season and his form with the Kangaroos had everybody assuming he'd been "fixed", and Bill Knowles was suddenly all the rage in rugby league rehab. Since that time, Latrell has barely played a game, Tommy's return has suffered another setback (not a leg injury, but still), and Ryan Papenhuyzen still hasn't set foot on a rugby league field.

Yep, Septics. Always been full of schiit.

Maybe the Knowles treatment is not meant for Rugby League players , that sort of training has buggered all his other muscles in his body ie more susciptble to other injuries . maybe forget it and just go back to Aussie Sports Medicos and physios amd leave they yanks to their own ****.

 

[Under the Sticks]

I wonder how his "running through the ground" is going as he nurses his pec.

Knowles treatment appears to be like a balloon dog.....push here, pop there!

 

[Will on the hill]

Knowles was working on his body mechanics, to reduce stress on his hammies. How could that possibly relate to a torn pec?

Bill Knowles - a purveyor of snake oil remedies.

Manly Sea Eagles’ audacious plan to get star fullback Tom Trbojevic back for NRL finals​

After originally being ruled out for the season, Manly Sea Eagles superstar Tom Trbojevic could be back well ahead of schedule from a serious pectoral injury.


Manly superstar Tom Trbojevic could be available for a shock finals comeback – and NRL rules will also allow Manly to find an interim replacement.
Trbojevic sustained a pectoral injury in State of Origin II with the Sea Eagles now hoping he could return after a 12-week absence.
That means Trbojevic – provided he is cleared medically – could be back for week two of the finals, provided Manly can qualify.
Under NRL rules, a club can only secure salary cap dispensation for an injured player if he misses 12 or more games. Trbojevic will miss the required 12 weeks.
That means Manly can try to locate an immediate replacement but also include Trbojevic in their side later this season.
Manly would have to drop a player if the club exceeded the 30-man squad limit through a new player and Trbojevic’s return.
The NRL insists a replacement for Trbojevic would need to be ‘like-for-like’.
It was expected Trbojevic would miss the rest of this season but there is now some optimism he could return for a late crack if Manly can sneak into the playoffs.

Manly continues to monitor the market – the club sounded out New Zealander Roger Tuivasa-Sheck – but have not yet identified a possible fullback replacement.
The Sea Eagles have been buoyed by Dolphins halfback Sean O’Sullivan, who was ready to return from a pectoral injury after a 12-game lay-off.
O’Sullivan injured his pectoral in round four against Brisbane but was back in round 17 against Parramatta. He could have played round 16 but the Dolphins had a bye.
Trbojevic injured his pec on June 21 in Sydney.
There is the question as to whether Manly would risk bringing Trbojevic back from such a long-term injury so late in the season.
But if Trbojevic is cleared medically, and wants to play, Manly would no doubt select the Test and Blues star.
Trbojevic returned to hospital earlier this month after contracting a post-surgery infection.
To play finals footy, Manly must start winning consistently. The Sea Eagles currently sit in 11th place with seven wins from 17 games.
Manly are three points outside the top eight and play Cronulla this Sunday at Pointsbet Stadium.
Trbojevic has endured a wretched sequence of injuries dating back to 2016.
From then, the luckless star has sustained four hamstring injuries along with ankle and shoulder issues.
His 2021 season was one of the finest by an individual player in modern day rugby league history.

Why is this even being talked about, on the odd chance we make the finals we won't get past the first week.
Give him time for his body to recover, each time he comes back at 95% he is out again.


We also should have found a replacement by now, why the delay when he was ruled out for the season.

We all know we won’t see him again this year. I wish they would never write this crap, it only sets us up for more disappointment

PMSL week 2 of the finals….

PMSL week 2 of the finals….

And also pmsl at the optimism that turbo would be fit and firing anyway and not struggle along until an Australia jersey was up for grabs.

 

[Uk eagle]

The AI staff reporter should really have written "Turbo as much chance to be fit for week 2 of the finals as Manly are of getting there"

So........we are going to win the comp???
