That could be his career the poor bugger.

 

[eel01s]

Hope it's not as bad as first thought for T-Rex. He has been good for us.

 

[Twizzle]

BA said in his presser its looks like an ACL

 

[Gronk]

F**K

 

[Twizzle]

it really didn't look like his leg was under any undue stress during that tackle

ACL's can snap with any kind of change of direction, landing from a jump, pivoting, stopping suddenly or a direct hit to the knee.

They often can tear in the most innocuous circumstance

Poor Tony ... he was surprising me how well he was going. Real shame

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

This sucks balls. For him and us.

 

[IFR33K]

Damn shame. Was going well too. Hope he’ll overcome this and hope the club gives him one last shot.

Same. I think a fair bit of credit needs to be given to him for turning our form around. I must admit i had him nowhere near our top 17 going in to the season but since he'd been given an opportunity he has shown what he was capable of. The 2nd half of the first game v the tiggers seemed to be the catalyst for some improved performances

 

[Stevie]

BA won’t resign him.
I wonder if we can get dispensation to sign a new player?

T-Rex would need to be the one that resigns.

I guess BA will monitor his recovery and attitude towards returning. At 100k he may be worth another year. He certainly ticked lots of boxes on the field. 9 month recovery to play has him in full contact the end of Jan 19. Regardless, duty of care would mean no hasty decision. I reckon he'll be back.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I reckon he will stay, didn’t want to go overseas and probably doesn’t want to be a labourer just yet.

Still fairly young, I reckon BA will kept him as he will offer good value under the cap.

Probably everything under $200k is great value if he returns like he did this year.
